    Vest/Chest Pack

    I don’t mind them but a chest pack I think I’d fight with. I have a hard enough time casting a pin or climbing into log jams on my favorite small stream. After thinking it over the vest had 2-3 main pockets I used and the rest were excess stuff I’d rarely use. We plan to release a lot more this...

    Diy floats

    A-5, I know, I just looked at a calendar and realized the weekend after is Easter, the weekend after my Princess turns 7, all grandparents and great grandparents that just left are returning for longer. It’s either bugger out a few days during the week or maybe drive at Midnight Sat, arrive to...

    Diy floats

    Should add the gun incident happened when I was hunting with my oldest, he was a teen, he leaned it against the cab or on the ground at lunch time. I don’t make a habit of letting young kids into gun cabinets.

    Diy floats

    Erie trip might get postponed with Mentored Youth now being next Sat. Not sure if kids will want to go but probably drag the middle two out.

    Diy floats

    You’ve probably got it covered but I have 3 sets of floats with multiple overlaps and decided to order a half dozen custom loafers. I can send you some for him until he gets more if you want. I’ve got all Raven currently.

    Vest/Chest Pack

    Sling was wondering if it had enough separated pockets for gear and space for water/whatever. I go days without water but trying to get better at that. My body has an uncanny ability to skip a few days of food/water/sleep and keep going. I’m trying to be more conscious of that these days.

    Vest/Chest Pack

    Josey I looked at slings too, do you hang net on your belt or ? I usually hang by magnet in my upper back by hoop. Sort if the reverse of many but handle stays close to hand. It’s a bit tough with my old nets being tall and not super flexible but I picked up a longer handle net.

    Vest/Chest Pack

    So vest has had it, tried a low price Amazon chest vest thing and didn’t like it at all. Thinking of just getting the Fishpond Thunderhead or whatever it’s called. Kind of pricey without trying it on. Anyone use a chest pack? Any other brands/styles to try? Mostly species specific fishing Trout...

    Rather than priceless shotguns it’ll be fishing rods intermixed with guns

    Rod Rack

    Have a small horde of building materials including automation building stuff I repurpose. Anyone have a good idea for a rod holder? Think there’s at least 8 and they only cover steelhead, trout, and a Brim Buster. Need some way to organize better. Space is not a big issue. I’m thinking of...

    I’ve been thinking of getting a net holster, I’ve a bunch of the magnets and they get weak on my. They also pick up a ton of little ore fragments on the Lehigh. vest thing came in and it’s pretty odd fit. Feels awkward and twisted a bit. Probably send it back and get a Fishpond chest pack or...

    I went last minute and he tried expediting but Mail is pretty crazy. They missed the trip so I drop a few hundred $ on stuff there.

    Our Fearless and Generous leader sent these to me for my steelhead trip along with some tied spawn sacks.

    Picked up a fresh order of Spinners for my Bro and added a few colors since we sometimes camp on one spot like at the private lake. I’m no spinner fisherman so rely on the guy making them for advice. This was my packaging not his. I just quickly separated. I need to get some more small divider...

    Bro was able to transfer his Union location too and he’s happily back working after an uncertain year. Blessed to be able to cover bills for both my house and his, it’ll be nice to see a savings account again though. At least until we repave one drive and pave a 24” x 15’ patch in the floating...

    Pretty light and only 11” wide or something like that but deep pouch. I end up hiking miles down into spots and generally I know “roughly” where I am but it’s not clear paths. I’m forever retrieving my net from a tree. I’m also thinking if back swinging is still a pain I’ll get the holster for a...

    Ordered a new vest type thing. I was kicking around the Fishpond Thunderhead setup but went with a sort of vest with pouches in the usual spots. Also my bro lost one of my nets this year and the big heavy net is a pain. I talked to the Rising Bite guy about a custom setup and looks like he’s...

    Another good one is smoked salmon/trout in cream cheese for a dip.
