Jealous of the king. Beautiful specimen. I tried like hell on Saturday to raise one.

typo. I fixed it.

No.

My first run with this stuff ended unsuccessfully as I had a fish pull the modified albright knot connection I had installed taking my dodger/fly and 200' of wire (sorry fish, I feel bad). I love the handling of the new product. No kinking, no tangling as advertised. I don't like any of the options the owner of Torpedo products shows on his website or Youtube for connecting braid backing to wire so this morning I got out the needle and thread and I think I have come up with a smooth-strong connection knot to use with this stuff. You will need a push-pin and a sewing needle from your wife's tackle supply. Place the torpedo weighted steel on a board and push a push-pin thru the middle of the wire. Rig up the end of your braid thru a sewing needle and thread the needle into the opening of the wire created by the push-pin. Once you get the sewing needle part way thru, remove the push-pin to make it easier to push the sewing needle all the way thru and lessen the opening of the weave in the wire. Once thru, I tie a nail knot. Cinch it down real good. Makes a super clean knot that will chute thru the guides. Having the braid starting connection buried inside the wire weave should minimize the knot slipping. I will post my results this knot after test driving. http://www.101knots.com/nail-knot.html

The boom starts getting dismantled when the ice on Erie lowers to 250 sq miles. As of April 1st there was 700 sq miles of ice. Best guess is they will start late next week.

What a weather gift for the first week of April. Splashdown cruise today. Quality Browns and Lakers but not quantity today. Water is cold everywhere at 36 degrees. Marked nothing on fish finder. Next week it should start to pop.

I remember the mad rush on cowbells when Roadkill Magazine came out with the recipe to cut the Mirex taste out of Lake Trout fillets.

I suppose there should be a factor measuring the amount of Pennsylvanian anglers on the water during the study.

Mouth of Niagara Nov-April to the shipping channels off the Black River come August/September = approx 4 months??

Question. Why if this tackle show is so popular does it only run for one day and limited hours to boot??

How do you know they were alewives? Do you have a degree or something? Get the Kaho fired up!

So you definitely can’t name it “Bent Rod” or “Perones”.

Sounds good. My rig is coming with me.

I will be down your way for the week of July 4th.

I will plant Wayfair catalogs on your boat to distract them!

Look at those ladies on point! I wish I could get my crew to manage rods like that. What is your secret Rob?
