    Channels in PA’d be fun, the NC parks stock them starting around 5-8 lbs. a decent fight at that size.

    My buddy that lives there was always ready for Striper, none when I was noodling off the boat, landlocked but some good ones on Kerr/Gaston I hear,

    Wait “eaten” sized channels at “18-20”??!?! We talking bout the same fish?! Caught a few monsters in Erie runoff before moving south catching them but…….. gotta be 5-8 lbs or not even on the cooler worthy side. Pickerel? Gotta be spooking pike or just throw backs, I’m starting to think A-5 is...

    And not saying I believe at all in the “400 missing years” being covered in books removed from the Bible. I’d honestly never heard some of the missing books described as adding anything. I had heard about the Trial of Nicaea and other info. A Methodist pastor mentioned something from Apocryphal...

    Hate buying sight unseen, my brother lost a fancy tiptop from the rod A-5 so graciously made for him for free. I finally got sick of looking at the fuji tip being too big. I had to order some for my St Croix that lost its insert and another anyway. $38 with shipping for 3 tip tops. With the...

    I like all the seasons but my favorite is skinny water, preferably fast pockets with log jams, early summer when it’s really flowing, add overcast and a drizzly rain and I’m in heaven. I don’t like the sun much in general. I agree TS, the fish in the Lehigh stack up on the cold trib confluences...

    What was I thinking

    I think we all meant to make sure the hook stays in the “tall” yard target😁

    How difficult wrapping?

    To me it seems impossibly hard but maybe it’s more time than talent? I’m guessing it’s probably both.

    4/5 weight fly rod

    I’ve seen pics recently of older Sage 5wt 11’ switch rods on chrome! I think HD is prepared for the odd record musky to come along, lol. “No such thing as over-gunned”

    Looks like it’ll be cooling off and rain finally. Of course, I’m in CT and it’s 10 -15 degrees hotter. Cooled after storm just now but winding down from the day. Tomorrow when I’m in plant, no AC, it’ll be 90 again…..

    I’ve got room, we do the STR thing so not so sure you can float the bill but I happily take gear I trade. Think she’s getting $100/night plus cleaning and service fees, LOL, you might be out of collateral before I’m out of space, then again maybe not.... there’s 3 car garage of space left, F+F...

    My go to always whether fishing active or passive is bait fish. If I ever become a true Fly Fisherman I’ll have to give up the crutch but if they aren’t biting the active “fry” sized minnows they aren’t biting from what I can tell regardless of sport fish or tropical aquarium fish.

    Or if you do Hilton Head and “New” Blufton have your name on em. Always Cary too but locals still hate what happened to Kildare Farm rd. Hint, there’s no green in sight let alone “farm”. If you want a strip mall of high end boutique grocers and what not on every corner it might be your town...

    Damn Yankees they call ‘em, LOL CARY, NC (Containment Area For Relocated Yankees), I moved there first, everyone does, it’s like a super developing crazy rich area, they’ve voted annually to increase their own taxes, they want to go south for various reasons but call it the low cost of living...

    New World Record Shellcracker

    I used to throw a bait trap in the ponds in NC and catch a ton of small ones. Great for bait on blue cats, bass, even other big brim,

    I’ve got more house than stuff, it’s just going to be tough if we downsize and as kids grow other adults seem to move in LOL. My glorious 2k sq ft 2 floor mancave with knotty pine all around including a 15’ bar has become my brothers Apt. Now my Mom is scheming to retire early and move in...
