    [Archived] What did you Catch Today?

    Cute dog, have to ask, is that a handle in her life vest?!? Sure hope you don’t use it to carry her. We’ve a wire haired Dachshund but he weighs as much as a 4 yo so no toting him around.

    [Archived] What did you Catch Today?

    I just saved a FB video of a guy landing a huge king on a ice rod. Thing folded in 2 but held up. I had semi joked with Z about using one of his ice rods for a travel rod. If it was soft enough I’d give it a go. I like extra long, soft rods. I even use a fly rod as a hybrid style just for the...

    The fishpond setup for holding/packing a rod I’m playing with. I ran my spinning rod with my 5wt on that and it was on the water pack but barely noticed. It would be a lot sweeter on my new Fisheye Orvis pack so I’ve to figure out if I’m unstitching the 4 way attachment patch Fishpond uses or...

    [Archived] What did you Catch Today?

    Was waiting to see who here and in a Friends only FB post who’d notice. A-5 for the win with his attention to detail. Should’ve guessed, he sent me 6mm painted beads for steelhead and they had little 2-3 color circles painted on them.

    [Archived] What did you Catch Today?

    Mixed emotions, mostly sad after. Youngest fell asleep on ride home as I grappled with things. Lost my Dad at 17 when he was 39 and lots of people I’ve cared about have passed. Just resurfaces stuff and even worse not making the funeral for the family. I had to fly to Atlanta at 6am today...

    [Archived] What did you Catch Today?

    Went to my dock with the boys. Ended up taking my daughter to work at hatchery Father’s Day and ran until 9pm on a quick project. Felt like things where off at Dock. I always pull in and the owner is sitting in doorway with front door open, glass screen closed watching his tv. Never not seen...

    [Archived] What did you Buy Today?

    I saw that yesterday at WM and it caught my attention. It was WM so I didn’t buy it. I couldn’t remember how many spools of premium line I had left either. Felt like I was getting low but know I didn’t try 20+ lines yet. Was looking at spool last trip when a 30” brown was chasing me and it’s 1/3...

    Idiots

    Yep, driving my 7.3 01 super crew more these days. Pull up and idle next to their yaks and the Greenies would run over in horror and move their mess. Or they’d be soot covered and smelly. Even works on highway. People naturally give wide berths to that thing. I put an exhaust on it but that was...

    Day before my flight about 20 chunky trout. Biggest was only 17” range but will get back out this weekend. It was a nice afternoon wade with the cool breeze. Looks like today might be a similar day.

    Have to use braid, that way all the trees wouldn’t break it.

    Losers

    In my defense you cant cast from an airplane. Well you could try, Air Marshal would probably smoke you though and lose of cabin pressure when you open hatch is a problem. Plus by the time your lure hit water you’d be 300 miles past it.

    How to lose a ton of cash quick

    Depends, BTC I honestly don’t see the value as a platform like ETH. ETH has the scale but lots of smaller Proof-Of-Stake options to compete with.

    Braid, There I said it!

    Meh, $9 and titanium. Probably a PIA to sharpen but the Work Sharp literally changed my life making the whole kitchen go from flat dull to razors in minutes after years of processing double digits deer with said dull knives. My paper making stepfather showed up with a Buck knife after mill got...

    Braid, There I said it!

    I had the blue ones ove since seen at WM and they cut braid fine. Albeit not tuna/Marlin rated thickness. We where thumbing from Montgomery with this guitar on our back,,,, or off grid fishing anyways feeling nostalgic, no food all day so decided to keep a few of the locals to cook, realized we...

    Braid, There I said it!

    I tend to toss anything that appears slightly rusty. Gives me reason to buy a newer version tool. The one exception I’ll gladly trade you ETH for is original, not welded, bear traps,,,,, preferably no rust but I know trappers purposely rust their traps so I’m not picky.
