sneak_e_pete Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Got out this morning with my little guy (5 years old). What a nasty day! Definitely glad I got the full top when I bought the boat because we put it to the test today! Anyhow, 60 fow and they were on fire! We caught 50 in a couple hours and 40 of them were good keepers. I also spent the last 2 weeks building my own rod, and it was awesome to catch them on something I made myself (shout out to Spiel for a lot of awesome advice while building it). I'll post some pics of the finished product. Not craftsman quality, but pretty darn good for a first attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopheraaron Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Nice, what about some fish pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsman Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Sounds like a memorable day. As for using equipment you made I agree it's a joy. I have not made rods but a lot of my homemade gear is for icefishing. When you made it, it just adds an other dimension to the experience.
