Oh Lord, have mercy. I've had a few of these in my life. First was in High School. Didn't know what hit me, but I almost broke the walls of the toilet stall, LOL. The rest in my 40s and 50s. Absolute worst pain I have ever had. Been in the ER a couple times. Spilled my guts each time when my wife and I decided, yeah, let's get me to the ER.

@BahnzoBass About 8 years ago give or take, I watched a number of YouTube vids of Japanese Tenkara masters, the American dudes who brought it over here, etc. I've done a ton of long pole fishing (no reel) over the past 20 years. Learned some techniques from an elderly Korean gent. Lots of fun. But most days my preference is to be out in my kayak enjoying nature and finding the bass. Or whatever wants to take the hook.

Welcome aboard! 🤙 Have come so close to buying a Tenkara setup over the years. Just haven't committed.

Have you looked at / considered the Native Ultimate 12FX? I have the prior gen 12 and would jump at the opportunity to have an FX. My 12 is a hybrid, 55lbs unladen. I also tricked mine out with a Minn Kota Endura C2 30 about 10 years ago (?) and in the last 3 months finished my motor upgrade - now have 65lb thrust and holy smokes does it move. Almost too much power. Anyway, I stand and fish all the time from mine if that's something you like. The FX pontoons are squared at the bottom making them more comfortable to stand in.

Been out a number of times Jan thru last week. Have had a tremendous season thus far. Great being back out fishing regularly, especially with my boys and my great friend, Randy who is a great bass fisherman in his own right with some real beasts to his name. Lots of bass, pickerel, and a magical day of crappie fishing back in Feb with Randy. Between us we caught/released at least 60 crappie most of which were 1.5 to 2.2# slabs. All on swimbaits. Never had a day like that before or since. And we have visited the same area for months. Nada. A few of the bass I've caught most recently (last couple weeks) post-spawn. Pre and during spawn zman swimbaits were king supreme, with wacky, Ned, etc. working well during. Post has been a mix of these, but best has been a 1/16oz Keitech micro jig with about a 1" Zman cut off TRD trailer, often with DIY fuzz (pic is about 1.5-1.75" of TRD). Oh, and all were caught on a ~6' ML Premier with 6# P-Line Floroclear leader and a Stradic 1000. :-)

A lot of knowledge they left for us here, thankfully. I learned a lot from them over the years. Wish there was more time. RIP, legends.
