Thanks. Guess crappie and shad fishing will be coming up soon...

I'm new to this forum. I've posted in other forums as "Sandcrab" so some of you might know me already.

I fish:
Freshwater- LM and SM bass, trout, shad, sunfish.
Saltwater - Jetties piers, DE and MD surf OSV zones

I build rods - fly, spinning, baitcasting, and surf rods.

I'm retired and fish every Wednesday with my wife and other days with other fishing buddies.

I make the long drive to Western Maryland/West Virginia a couple of time each year for trout. I fly fish, float fish, and fish ultralight (2 lb test stuff) lures for all trout. Favorite places out there include the North Branch of the Potomac, Youghiogheny River, Savage River, and the Casselman.

I also make a couple of trips each year to fish in Ontario Canada for a week with some buddies. Smallmouth heaven!
