  1. I’m so sorry for your loss Ed
  2. Sorry for your loss Ed.
  3. I have a few of their higher end reels and I have the same issue with the reel handle.
  4. It states that they’re made in the USA? St Croix makes a pretty nice rod.
  5. This makes me cringe. Just what we need, more trash and urine in the river. It’s been happening already. Now they have a means to help facilitate it. Cold weather sounds good again.
  6. Got to have the old version! hope all is well Gordon
  7. My best wishes to you and your wife. I hope everything keeps improving.
  8. I fished Tenkara with my brother last year for trout in NC. It was fun but not my first choice. A really effective method though, especially on heavily fished waters. Current as cover definitely is a plus as most every water we fished was crystal clear and trout would spook easily in still waters. The trout really use the current to hide in on the skinny waters. Also, anytime there was a dark patch on the bottom a trout might be in it. We caught some pretty hefty trout too, had to chase a few and also had a few pop the light tippet. I definitely believe it would be an effective method to catch smallmouth but again, I'd rather cast poppers or streamers to them as a first choice.
  9. There's been talk of making Great Lakes warmwater species a separate record class, just like they separate inland trout from lake Michigan trout. Any thoughts on that? The potential for growth is phenomenal in the Great Lakes. I believe that this will be a record shattered a few times. I have friends who were catching big smallmouth in LM well over 20 years ago. I'm surprised its taken this long, but perhaps the need to own a record is not as important to some anglers therefore goes unreported. Personally, I prefer river to lake fishing. Still is very cool and very impressive.
