Started at 3 years old catching Bream and shell cracker on a cane pole. Bass in a couple of years as they were bigger and good eating. My Daddy was a meat fisherman and never understood why in my late teens I practiced catch and release. 57 years fishing and it has been a great ride!

Rebel ringworm and deep wee r. They're still being made. They're still being made.Upgrade complete...Welcome!4 Cashion rods and these.I fished out of old aluminum boats for a very long time. The first one had only a trolling motor. I caught plenty of fish and a few decent one's too boot. No, I couldn't run all over the lake, no I couldn't afford a depthfinder nor high end equipment. One thing I could do was fish. I might have admired new boats and nice equipment but never really cared as long as I was able to fish. There has been some very sound advice from folks on this thread. Read it and re-read it. My wife and I looked at buying our retirement boat and then covid hit. We ended up with a 17 ft. aluminum boat with a 50 horse motor and 45 lb thrust trolling motor. It has serviceable electronics and has been a great little boat. We are putting away a ton of money and will buy new right before I retire. So at 64 I will have a new boat. I know this post is a bit disjointed but the entire point is never make a financial choice based solely on want. That usually ends up costing you. And; never, ever become so financially strapped that you can't enjoy life.I'll be there all weekend.Zoom 8" Dead Ringer. Red Shad.Deep crankbaits. I spent a good part of the past two Summers doing this and that experiment is over. I gave it a fair shake and was not successful.This is the best advice! I have had so many and given up everything I was told that was causing them. The last one I passed was a whopper.
Welcome!Your faith is strong Tommy, keep it up!A few Christmas gifts....
