  1. I lost my dad at 21, an incredible man who loved to fish.  I carry on his legacy as you will you father's.  Now at 58, My wife, kids, & grandkids all love the pursuit. 

    My 19 month old  grand daughter's 1st words-

    mama, da-da, nana, & feeeesh(fish)--so I know he would be proud---as will yours.

     

    I'll be out Saturday and a Diet Coke or water bottle will be raised.

     

    Condolences.

  2. I use eagle claw glass kokanee casting rods 7'6'' ($20 cabelas) on my riggers on all inland lakes

    -caught a 7 lb Landlock on Cayuga 2 summers ago on one of them.

    I use the smaller hammerhead 3/0 spinners on them as well--no issue at all

    I pair it with a garcia 5500 linecounter with 15 lb braid and use 8lb fluorocarbon leader.  

     

    obviously, its too light for the great lakes but in southern reservoirs for trout and walleye and all of new england and the fingers--they are great

     

    good fishin

  3. Hi Folks-

    Looking for an older Humminbird snap on combo unit for my Neighbor.  He's a retired Vet (80) who fishes quite a bit and is on a tight budget so this is on me.

    Any models from the Humminbird older line that are combo units that snap on the base--like 363c, 500's, 600's, 700's --they are foolproof for 80 year old eyes--snap and go

    The plugs on the lowrance are a pain to take on and off (he had a 4x someone stole)---not sure about garmin.

    My budget is $150-200 plus $20 shipping to Florida

     

    Let me know what you fisherman have and want to sell and help out this Old West By God Virginian Veteran who fishes Lake Okeechobee once a week.

     

    Thanks

    Coach
