    Just bought a package of Fisherman's Friends. Put one in a cup of water, but nothing yet... How long do they usually take to hatch?

      Been busy.. Dealing with health issues for my 19-month-old and also for myself. No auroras yet.. Last year I tried and just hooked into a gigantic pike and then I left and quit trying for the season. Maybe I will just give up on them, I dunno.

    Haha, my son was standing beside me while checking out the new Pearl Jam song, and he starts bobbing up and down.

      ya, not bad. Needs a few more listens. Check out "deer tick - the rock"!!

  7. adolson

    Not a bad day on the water. Caught my limit of splake and six percent of my limit of perch.

  8. adolson

    second time trying a fly rod - caught 2 little specks. casting still needs work, but I'm satisfied with my progress so far.

  9. adolson

    Tried casting a fly rod for the first time today. Made me feel like a kid with cerebral palsy trying to stay inside the lines on a page of a coloring book while sitting in the backseat of a monster truck as it takes jumps and crushes cars. Without wearing my seat belt. But I'll get the hang of it eventually.

    trying to decide on a Leatherman... I like the Skeletool CX, but kinda pricey by comparison... I like the carabiner, though

      I lengthed one by 18"s many years ago Dano, shortening one shouldn't be too difficult.

    3. adolson

      adolson

      Yep, that's exactly what I did - lopped off 15" and should be perfect now!

  13. adolson

    I didn't catch anything today, but I put my brother and his buddy onto a couple nice specks, 2 and 2 1/4 pounders.
