  5. what river was that retiredbosn?
  6. nice fish, looks like 6 1/2 to 7
  7. thats a great replica. and a great fish.
  8. where I fish rock ledges go all the way across the river and between the ledges it is about 30 to 40 yards wide we call them troughs for about half a mile each trough has a name I'll just give a few. -cattle trough-about ten years ago a dead cow was in the middle of this one -rockin chair- a chair washed in on this one and hung up on a rock from a distance looked like a rocking chair. -main trough- one of the widest and deepest of all the troughs -broken trough- the rock formations doesn't go straight across the river there are a lot of offsets -about 5 or 6 named after the person that likes to fish in them. -Dog trough- my dogs likes this one to swim in they have a few rocks to rest on. the cattle trough was a great place to fish all summer no one would fish it for the smell, I did catch smallmouth 23.2" that summer was worth the smell.
  9. welcome enjoy your retirement.
  10. welcome!

  12. welcome!
  13. i release all fish i catch except for redeyes i take about 10 home with me when i want some fish to eat. where i fish they have a slot limit no one can keep bass between 14"-20" you can keep 1 bass per day over 20".
  14. there is a lot of felt sole boots with different prices the one thing i would look out for is some have vent holes made on the inside of the arches with a little screen covering the hole the screen will come off this will let little rocks and sand get inside of your boots when that happens you will be taking your boots off often and emptying them out, a few of my friends ran into this problem end up buying new boots. i have the cabelas backcountry for $69.99 i've had this pair over 3 yrs and use them almost every day after it warms up enough to leave the waders home. my wife has the ultralight for $59.99 i don't know if they are as good as what i have, she doesn't get to fish as much but has had them 2 yrs.
  15. cabelas has roaring fork 3.5mm neoprene waders for $79.99 this is the waders i have used for years they seem to last a long time. the only thing if it gets warm out mid-day early after noon they will start to sweat you, to help this i wear a belt and roll down the top of the waders. i wouldn't have a set of waders without felt soles, the river where i fish has slick rocks the felt helps you get a grip on the rocks better than lug.
