    Well finally getting my 2nd fluke trip in tomorrow. Though I don't count the 1st one, had a rookie with me Don😂. May not count tomorrow either taking my brother-inlaw, he never fished for fluke. Just kidding!!! I am hoping the storm doesn't bring, a lot of crap into the Inlet.

    My friend has the Stadic model. I bought the Nasci because it was cheaper, and I have to watch my spending money. Well we compaired them, and he now has a couple Nasci's. We saw no diddereanc in the too, except cost. Is Shimano trying to sell more reels at a cheaper cost??

    I'd Hate to be Cheap

    I think this takes us back to the conversation, do stink baits work. I'm a gulp alive guy, I save old juice and put the rubber in it, even my trout magnets. I catch a fair amount of fish, so if it's not broken keep working it.

    Trout season 2022

    Got out trout fishing today, creek was still running fast. Managed to catch 8, 5 rainbows & 3 browns. All were pretty nice fish. Since they only stock big ones, for opening day. Got em all on a gold Panther Martin. Couldn't keep the trout magnets down. Once again Croix will eat good.
