    Amazon linked the video series of Great Courses but I have the book.

    What was I thinking

    I did mention I like to read/research/learn. Not a bad first step in this area- https://www.amazon.com/Argumentation-Study-Effective-Reasoning-2nd/dp/1598031171

    What was I thinking

    No bourbon here, my argument was perfectly valid. First thing you learn though is the Blue Cheese Moon argument is also valid. It’s incorrect but logically sound. Lol

    [Archived] What did you Catch Today?

    Big ole fat browns, only got a poor pic of one. We caught 2-3 nice browns right away and a oversized perch. A few kids struggling with their dad so we didn’t fish much. Camped out letting them use our poles and bait. They each caught around 10 including a few beautiful orange bellied browns.

    TS or other Striper Gurus

    I had an uncle wanting to take me to CT part of the sound for Striper. Did I miss the window? I haven’t talked to him in a few weeks but he mentioned Cows being a certain time. He was waiting on his boat to get back from shop. I am able to loosely plan my work travel and wondered if there was...

    River and big fish rod

    The RPLs are listed within “100 miles” of Jim Thorpe currently. I just searched again today for a Sage One and they popped up. I wanna say $150-200 range

    River and big fish rod

    Don, your free to try out the 8wt glass rod. It’ll probably collect dust as a decoration mostly. It’s under 9’ I think though. Very different than new rod manufacturers so probably not comparable at all. I had a late 80’s 6wt 10’ noodle rod converted to fly set to buy and had to travel when it...

    River and big fish rod

    I’m sort of drawn to the Spey blank conversions for centerpin and they seem to use 5-6wt Sage or similar from 11-13’, using the 2 wt jump to standard seems a 7-8 wt would be a good place, I’ve heard dropping the length back pushes weight up slightly, I’m not sure I’d want anything over a 7wt in...

    What was I thinking

    Now see, to use popular opinion as the warrant for your argument, IE if anyone says your wrong they are also saying A-5 is not the nicest guy, and garnering his approval through praise further cementing your status as second nicest guy on the forum isn’t a valid argument since any dissenter...

    Above Glen Onoko in the dark with no flashlight, not recommended, That night wasn’t bad but other climbs around the area Ive gotten myself in trouble. Scaling boulders to get out that are minibus sized and break free or rock is disconcerting. When your too exhausted to go any other way and...

    Another nice one that’s more accessible is parking at bottom of Drake’s, leave the bus turn around empty, hike the tracks down river 2-2.5 miles, Stoney comes in, go up river there and you’ll find a nice waterfall, above the falls are deep channels undercutting the bedrock.

    It’s worth the hike, fair warning, a guy bought both sides of the access road and dropped a gate/posted it all up, he owns the access at the two or three roads up there that tie it all together too. I’ve not met him but he has “Tentr” sites setup all over, he had bridges and zip lines over the...

    Pickerel love large bullfrog polywogs too, I’m a bait thrower but when Shiners didn’t work Polywogs on the surface did as did small frogs lip hooked.

    [Archived] What did you Catch Today?

    I used to target fat pickerel in small lakes in NE NY. I thought I was the only one that liked catching them until I read about a pickerel hatchery here in PA. The big fat ones can be a handful. I might have old pics from the 90’s of a few I caught. We had an issue with a knucklehead throwing...

    With the Coal Ash spill fishing Kerr/James river is out anyway. Fish are extra toxic now.

    [Archived] What did you Catch Today?

    I know NY has some big ones. I’ve not heard of them being sizable in PA but I don’t target them anymore. I always preferred eating the big ones easily filleted. Same with trout actually. I’m convinced the saying the small fish taste better was started to keep people from keeping the big fish...
