Call are you still fishing the Susquehanna? Nice ones brother 👍🎣
A very nice pair of smallies! It seems like these warm winter temps are prevailing everywhere! Glad you could get out and do some catching!
Thank ya Papa and Fred. Looked out side this morning and it's raining here. My wife said "what ya gonna do now"? I told her look for my rain suit.
Looks like it may get in to the upper 40's in the forecast.
Have a great day everyone!
I envy you. I have finally reached a point where I no longer fish if the temp is under 50. That was the temp set by my 80 year old fishing partner. It is time to follow suit. My broken body and artificial joints just can not handle the pain. ( Under the right circumstance, I may still cheat.)
I am not complaining. It just is what it is. I am alive and very active in warmer weather. During the winter, I replenish my fly and wire lure supplies at the workbench. I also get to create new spinners and attractors during the winter. A real positive side of things, is that I can fish spinners very deep. A snag and lost lure is only a few penny set back. My wife got me a soft bait and mold making kit as well as a hard bait making kit, so that opens a whole new winter activity. I already pour my own lead weights, dart type herring, and several different types of jigs, in the spring when it is warm enough to do it outside. Again, it is great to fish jigs and darts right in the rocks for lingcod, as the snagged darts are only a few pennies more than the cost of the lead. The way I fish, if I were to buy Point Wilson Darts, I would spend over $60 on any given trip. Same as my fishing buddy or grandson. That could be over $200 a trip vs. under $10. I can usually buy scrap lead at $.90 per pound. I usually find wheel weight lead at $.50 per pound with 20% waist. It is all good. Based on past stage comments, I am very careful casting lead. I always cast outside in a breeze and stay upwind. I am out in the country, so not bothering my neighbor.
