My Cabela's 6'6" CGR had an accident some where and I found a good part of the tip dangling. This came today with Father's Day GCs (thanks babe, no not you A-5 :) ) I don't know why but I LOVE the 4wt. Perfect for walking tight streams and the bow of the boat. I'll probably fix up the old rod...

We will have to catch you all at the next one. Shiela has surgery on the 25th, everything is ok but there will be some recovery time.

I had a bunch of Rock Bass by the end, a few Smallies and a Bluegill. I was trolling a crankbait and had a nice Smallie but he jumped and spit it. Amazing water but not the activity I'd expect. Then again no pickerel. It beat being at work and we can say we fished a new lake = good day. We...

We each had 2 Bass and a few pickerel as usual. This one was the best of the day and no it wasn't handed off to me......this time ;)

Almost everything we throw is Texas rigged curly tailed worms or paddle tails. We vary the size and color, keep it stupid simple. We have surprising success some days and on multiple lakes. We know our waters which helps. If plastics don't work then it's spoons and spinners. If that fails, by...

We throw soft plastics of all sizes. We target what ever bites and release everything. We don't pound beds but Bass show up. I'm just glad the season is here, then I get to throw top water for them. I love the blow ups!

Worked out asses off on a new coop for the girls. The work is done, tomorrow it's time to fish! We're headed to terrorize Shohola early. Nice location Blackcat Outdoors. Enjoy and good luck tomorrow.

Since we were at Field and Stream my better half and I both splurged and got ourselves new reels. We got the same one, DSG exclusive on sale. We haven't tried anything from Lew's yet. So far it's smooth and looks to be as good a quality as anything in it's price range or even higher. Mine has 6...

We hit Shohola around 630am. Another solid day for both of us. I managed 3 Bass, 3 Perch, a Bluegill and a ton of pickerel. Shiela caught a Bass and all Pickerel besides that. In the spirit of A-5, it wasn't kayakers blocking the damn boat launch it was 3 guys bobber fishing. Normally we go...

We have a tight chicken run, Ring video at every corner of the house and barky dogs. It didn't help. We have had hawks swoop down, bear climb on top of the run and rip the nesting boxes up and we didn't lose any until this weekend. I know they are chickens but it bothers me. I'm a week a way...

The Falcon rod was the one I broke. It was a 6ft L spin rod. Split grip, light weight, great for practically everything we catch. Super sensitive and was a favorite for Smallies and the kayak. The newest Favorite rod will see some work tomorrow. Nice temps and low winds. It would have been a...

I believe it is. I bought a 2 pack of new KVD edition reels from eBay. They are Quantum Smokes, new version but with KVD logos. They have been dead reliable but they do lose their smoothness after time if I had a complaint besides price.

This is the replacement for what we called our Smallie set up. It was a Falcon rod, Walmart clearanced them out at $5 each but they retailed for $80 (I bought all 3). I slipped down a river bank, the rod snapped under my heft and low laying countries were under tsunami alert. Field and Stream...

What year? I have a 19 that's treated me well so far. Good luck and enjoy it!

First trip under our belts, went ok but not great. We won't be hitting any state parks. Any time we make that mistake we usually gain another story about a tourist doing something stupid. Hoping to be on the boat Sunday.

Mike works too. We have both lake and river areas we target for musky. When I say target it's more like we know they are there, are we lucky enough that day? We don't over gear up for them so part effort, part luck. As for luck I didn't have that on my side when I slid down a short, steep...

I almost did that when I saw orange today. We battled mud the whole time. Can't wait to get in and walk the river... and pee freely lol 4 day weekend coming up, we usually avoid state parks at all costs on holidays so I think we may hit the river a bunch.

Compass 360 Deadfall Z stout waders are on the way. 4 day weekend coming up, I plan on putting them to work. Amazon has them on sale for $180 if anyone is on the market. I saw a thread where a few people really liked them . My current ones are water tight but the chest opens to a work area and...

Hit a river near us for the first time and the day kept getting better. Out of nowhere was my 3rd Golden Rainbow ever, never expected it! Shiela got in on the action too...even lost a flip flop during the battle lol

I didn't buy it yet but the second we got off the water the day went to hell. At one point I looked over the the tip of my 3wt set up was dangling on the line. No good deed goes unpunished.
