  1. Congrats on poaching your new Large mouth PB...... hopefully it's nest wasn't cleared out while you were posing with your "PB" ;)

     

    A little too early for nests right now. They're currently in pre-spawn, feeding aggressively prior to the spawn. Nest-raiding begins in June.

  2. hi i ran across this river yesterday it is called mad river the runs look amazing and something has to run it but what do any of you know what goes in there i did fish it for a little bit and caught a small native rainbow so i know that this river defanitly has some potential can you please telll me the history on this river thanks bigredfisher

     

    I tell you about the river if you punctuate your sentences.

  3. Magnetic brakes are better for casting lighter baits than centrifugal brakes. Magnetic bakes will allow for a longer cast and less backlash when using less casting weight. I am positive magnetic brakes can be found on Daiwa reels, and I'm fairly certain that they can be found on Quantum reels. Shimano uses centrifugal brakes. This is probably the most important thing to consider when buying a baitcasting reel for light baits.

  4. More R&D goes into developing a trout rod, since they need to be strong, sensitive, able to withstand freezing temps, able to handle light line, and let's not forget that steelhead snobs (not all steelheaders are snobs, I'm just saying) will pay anything for gear marketing toward them. Salmon rods are generally beef-sticks with lower-modulus graphite and possibly combined with fibreglass, not to mention foam handles versus the cork on trout rods.

  5. Doesn't look too abnormal to me, just like a rotten fish with part of its lower jaw torn up and hanging down, could be its tongue with the teeth on it. Sound like Bull to me...

     

    Burt :)

     

    That was my first thought too. Almost all fish have a set of teeth of some sort on their tongue in the middle pf the mouth. This pic looks as if the softer skin in the middle of the lower jaw has separated or torn from the rest of the jaw.
