Central Va meet and greet take 2
Yea I'm trying to talk my brother into going and bringing his boat so that we could both have an open seat for those who don't. The closer the time come the more I'll know about him if he does or can't make it. If he doesn't I'll post an open seat within that week. I might come out there this Sunday and fish a bit. I'm still trying to learn my Humminbird finder and get use to my Bow mount trolling motor. Here I thought the foot pedal would be easy to learn, ha on me Does Powhatan have allot of structure there and sunken trees? I never been there.

Reels under $60
My brother actually likes his Pinnacle he got from Walmart for $60 I think. I can't remember the model of it but he got it last year. I know it's not the slider. The good news there is a Pinnacle section with a Pinnacle rep. Pinnacle 1 I think is his name. If willing to up to $69 is the Browning Citori and if it's still at this price at BPS in store? Online still lists it at $99. I know I just got one that I like. The braking was a little weird to me as well, radial tuned braking, It's goes free 1,2,3 I have it set on two. I never messed with the brakes but I had no problem casting the Madd Maxx frogs in my yard. I paired it with 7'6 H-F Carrot Stix and spooled with Suffix 832 50#. http://www.basspro.com/Browning-Fishing-Citori-Baitcast-Reels/product/10205099/-1650517 Also the reel is a 1 piece aluminum frame, 8 bearing system, machined aluminum spool, 6.4:1 gear ratio( online store lists it comes in both hands and 5.4:1 and 7.1:1 also) maximum drag power:17.6 lbs. Can any pm and explain to me the braking system?

I also think I have some Archie also that I haven't had much luck with. Sam I heard Green Top has some nice prices on there shakey head jigs there. Does Green Top got any good deals going on?

I'm in the same boat far as live well. I might be able to rig a cooler with an aerator by then but I do have my scale and camera, and camera on phone as well. I'm willing to go by honor system. So what is the pot going to be? I rather know the rules and pot price now and have everything figure out so when we get there at 7 the only thing to worry about is filling the seats on boats if going that route.

Best wife ever!!
My wife (and most of the other posters wives, I'm sure) does all that too. But it's a welcome and much-appreciated bonus that she also takes an interest in and supports my hobbies. Tom Agreed!

Best wife ever!!
My wife is only 31 and this is her. But to be truthfully honest I'm all for her going cause besides eating out almost every Friday we really don't do nothing exciting together. She does like fishing when do go so I got her own combo and tackle. She definitely wants to do more now after she had the gastric done. She feels more confident and outgoing. She claims to not wait to go this year when the weather breaks and the fish bite is on.

Central Va meet and greet take 2
Powatan lakes is two parts? Is there access to both sides by boat? I never been and I just looked it up. Also is it a free launch? I'm going to try and make it out on the 19th. I'm trying to get my brother to come as well. If he does I'm not sure if he riding with me or bringing his boat. I know I'm bringing mine if we are using boats. So what are the rules? Is it just bank fishing or are we using boats? Reelcrazy says pitch in $10 to $15 per team so are we setting a fee? What's the limit? Sound like it's going to be fun and so far can't see why I can't make it there unless the weather willing for that day or that week since my work schedule is base around the weather (can't work if rain or to cold) and they make us work that day. I'll prob just tell I have something to do. I have my digital scale. Seems accurate too when I check it with my weight plates. Also Where is Powatan lakes at? I'm trying to find directions and distance from Caroline county.

If Walmart still does it not sure on the rest but they sell temporary registrations. $11 for 30 days but this was years ago I did this or just get to the vadgif. Yours should be $27. Congrats on the boat and have fun with it.

new rod and reel at dicks
Did you get the shirt too or only Gander doing that? I actually like the shirt and almost picked up their shakey head rod but I went with a different rod. Good luck with the new combo and enjoy!

Best wife ever!!
My wife is just getting into fishing. So I went and got a bigger jon boat. 14' tracker from a 11' sears to take her with me. My problem I still get the words "do you you really need this now" "It's your money do what you want with it...........but I think it's stupid"................ just for her to either try to claim it to having to share like my hooks, weights, whatever she claiming. I bought her own lil tackle box just for her to attack mine and gut it. Hopefully we will have fun together. She does get excited when we went bank fishing last year and boy don't let her be the only one to catch something. She doesn't hush up and it doesn't matter if your spend your time retying her hooks and trying to get her line out from being snagged.

Best way to cut braid?
i just use my braid scissors. just a heap pair I bought from a local tackle shop. I never notice any fraying. I bet my wife's Tonic trimming scissors would work great. I just checked snip with ease on the 852. They're just scrap book scissors. She would kill me if I stole those, lol.

Rappahanock Water Temps Creeping up
Oh please don't say that. I told the wife I wasn't going for another couple of weeks due to allowing the water to warm up a bit. This might make me into a liar. lol. I just might have to put in at hopyard landing and give the River a try.

Left and right handedness
Sorry to hear that Fish Chris. I'm the only lefty I know in my family.I know my mom, dad, brothers, and sister are all right handed and what to think the rest outside is too. My son we think will be both. He uses his right hand most but he will switch and use his left at times. Is it still to early to tell in a three year old? Can you write with your left hand Fish Chris?
