Here is an oldie but a goood one, Im 27 now but when I was around 7 I was fishing with my dad at a small pond. Classic worm and bobber style. Well as any 7 year old does I lost interest and set the pole on the bank and wondered off playing with weeds,dirt, etc. The next time I looked over at that pole it was being dragged into the pond at a high rate of speed. I learned a valuable lesson that day and have never set my pole down again. We were able to get the pole back from hooking on to the line under the bobber but moby dick was looooong gone.

Agree, Seems to be my favorite thing to do lately since the weather is been to crappy to go fish.

Hi everyone from Oklahoma, I joined this forum in 2006 when I was right out of high school and heavily into fishing, however I didnt get involved in many if any post. Then well.....ummm, I got married and needed to pick either hunting or fishing because I could only afford one hobby, so I sold most of my fishing stuff and picked hunting. Now we are about to have my first child, a little boy and since I wont be taking him hunting until he gets older I have decided to pick fishing back up since it is more suitable for the whole family. Hoping to be more involved in the forums this time. I just bought an Abu Garcia Orra 2 sx baitcaster with a All Star Rod 7' Med/Hev and a Abu Garcia Orra S30 spinning reel with All Star 7' Medium Fast. I had alot of tackle left so I just added and restocked to the collection. I cant believe how much has changed in the last 8 years in the fishing world. Anyway thanks for having me.

Thanks everyone someone was selling that one here in oklahoma on craigslist for 125$ and couldnt tell me what brand, if it floats, weight limit, etc... I was just looking for a little two man to drag along in the truck to fish some ponds. Nice fish Fishing Rhino!!!

Any help appreciated

Does anyone know if this event this weekend at the Ok fairgrounds is worth attending for rods/reels or fishing tackle? I visited it a few years ago and it seemed to be primarily focused on hunting and hunting gear. I tried looking on their website but no vendors are listed. Has anything changed? Any info appreciated.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I think I will also join a local club to learn from some people that have already been through this.

Hey im new here and have been bass fishing for a long time. However never out of a boat. Now that im in the boat I find that its like I have to start all over. What if any tips do you have for me? I cant seem to get on the fish.
