Some better pics in the sunlight. Just gotta decide what I want to do as a wrap probably a simple chevron. Start that tomorrow maybe.

Next time ya venture the Oak let me know the oak to me is silver to you. I fish both sections almost daily great for walleye, northerns, both large and small mouth, perch, and the cold water species if that's your thing trout and salmon. Even ice fishing that place becomes tent city once it gets safe ice guys hammering perch.

The kids and I visited my dad for a bit. They got me the usual kindergarten and pre K crafts a rock painted with their pic on it that says "you rock dad". The GF bought me a hoodie that says "dad the man the myth the fishing legend" and a T that says " some people wait their whole life's to meet a fishing partner I raised mine"

Cool. What ya catch it on we have them all over here but they won't bite anything

Well double foot guides are a real bummer like Scott said on my FB post it's like two rods in one. I got 7 of the 10 guides wrapped so far. The lighting sucks I'll try to get better pics tomorrow when I finish the last three and move onto the ferrule wraps then butt wrap.

Awesome

That's sweet. So did you print it yourself on the vinyl?

Kinda old news too the 7rnd thing

Flint lock muzzle loaders and only allowed enough powder in your possession for half a a load after the initial..... The struggle is real my friends NY blows No in all seriousness the 7rnd capacity was thrown out of the safe act we can have 10.

I've noticed since learning to fly fish my conventional fishing has gotten better I've slowed down

I've been reading the dale Clemens book haven't really done to much practicing been fishing sleeping work fish repeat lol.

I learned this year on Mother's Day and honestly it's the only fishing I do now. I fish every day litterly every day and I grab the fly rod every time. Mostly small mouth only one large mouth so far and missed a pike. I bought some 20# flouro tippet today and am gonna target pike Monday I got some monster pike streamers.

Trout will bite soon as they are released I do a trout derby every year for stockers they dump Friday we fish saturday

Raider were all fishing you should try it some time

Today while playing with the kids my oldest asked me what fly fishing was so I showed him some flies and my fly rod and then this happens. Totally made my day smiling ear to ear which was much needed lately.

Got the new guides in just waiting on some stripper guides I ordered from Scott to come in Friday and I can start this build.

Must buy in bulk for a good price or have a hook up. Just ordered new guides thanks to Scott and my good buddy recommending snake brand guides.

Got the rest of my stuff in to finish the build but now I think I might got with agate stripper guides and recoil guides instead of all these bent mudhole ones.

That's sweet I had a similar idea this weekend at drill about in laying a bullet or 40mm grenade casing into a handle on a build. Can't wait to see how this build goes.

Idk what you guys are talking about I only fish three days a week...yesterday, today and tomorrow

Guy out of PA I also ordered some winding checks from him. http://www.customrodhandles.com

I know ya said conesus but on Alice right along the road at the launch in that weed bed is always good to me and across from the launch to the right of the bridge that small cove with pads always has bass.

If you couldn't tell by the name this build is being built for chasing bass lol smallies specifically. I've been chasing them daily for a month now with my 9wt reddington and wanted something custom and a little smaller

Got my blank in today for my latest build. A 4pc 7wt fly rod. Rod geeks blank with a curly maple full wells handle. Still waiting on my mud hole order to arrive should be here Wednesday.
