Ha ha ha. Maybe, just maybe, we are just too focused on what is in the water. I just bought one set up to see how she goes. Once I get up there, I'm sure someone will be up there to help me out a bit.
We shall see (ha ha). We have not booked June yet. Got some pretty big projects at work this coming year and one phase is due in june. Will be playing this summer by ear.
How so Lew ? Do you mean I will have to work a bit harder to burn the baits back in ? Reel a lot faster to get the speed I need ? I had the opportunity to try a couple last year and really liked the low profile reels.
After hearing a number of my OFC friends keep recommending to me I should be using a bait caster for musky fishing, I just purchased my first set up today. Have to wait for Christmas to play with it. Picked up an 8' St. Croix Premier MH rod and a Curado 301 E reel to go with it. Gonna have to do a bit of practicing I'm sure.
Can't say I have ever seen such strength, drive, and determination in a person than I have seen here. Keep on fighting Jen and being an inspiration to everyone you meet.
It's settled then. Next time we're at Lakair together. Paul and Patsy in one boat - you and I in another. We don't come back until we each have a 50. :-).
I know, you at 48 and me at 49. Why are those last couple inches so difficult. :-)
Anyway ... That 48 is a great looking fish and nice coloring.
