Had the pleasure to meet and hangout with Joey a few times at some of the various group trips and "swills". So sorry to hear of her passing ...
Wishing peace and comfort for Paul + family at this time.
Lew I remember that picture fondly... Very touching piece.
Was definitely a dramatic finish.... Im a huge Jimmy fan but cant but feel a wee bit bad for Carl... He's been close to the cup a few times... Kinda like JJ in his early years...
Another title for the bow ties!
Go with 50 lb mono Roger
When i run divers i use 15 or 20lb mono or floro for spoons with a snubber.
With flashers and flies or meat i use 50lb mono no snubber
Ive been told the LIVE TARGET Goby is set to be available in a coupe weeks at most Ontario retailers. Apparently they had to increase production of the new Sunfish, which caused the delay for the Goby getting here for show season.
