“Call the man, aunt Bea”

I’ve lived it, guided it, instructed it , fun way to fish but we will just have to agree to disagree on efficiency. It’s too situational for our diverse waters, great for some spots and not so great in many. I frequently take plenty of guys that will only use fly gear and are very good with it, did that just yesterday and my buddy got a nice yellow perch on a big streamer he tied. bluegill and mtn stream trout it’s the way to go, can be great on shallow river fish but so can a lot of things I like the art of tying the flies, the casting, the drift, reading riffles, etc. If I want fish in the boat and/or my belly, I can do it much faster other ways. also, in reference to the article, I would agree with the author that crayfish flies aren’t nearly as fun as the other ones

That happened to me in Michigan at a rental cottage, I had that gulp stuff and the owners dogs ate the bottle and ripped thru all the worms I had put it on 😂

@Koz, they can’t talk to you about work if you don’t answer 😂

I wouldn’t call it effectively the same thing, your hook is in the air instead of the water for much longer no matter what species is the target bluegill and fly fishing go together perfectly, I usually keep a 3 weight in the boat when I want some panfish

6’6” medium

Congrats @LrgmouthShad!!!!!!!

Just order a mountain of bacon at the Cracker Barrel

I bout hit a large doe with a Honda today Probably resting after a night of promiscuity

Bro in laws neighborhood in Toledo 😂

Keep practicing! My mom is 72 and she can swim like a 1/4 mile or something crazy

^those will catch anything that swims

For a crank battery, you dont necessarily need an onboard charger unless you just want one. I can go weeks/months without charging mine and when I do charge it, I just use a $20 1 amp maintainer

The radio stream was flawless 😂

My phone thinks I’m in Nashville . Since the day I bought it! Changed the setting and it defaults back to Nashville every single time. Total nightmare when looking up parts at work

Water still in the mid 60s here

@softwateronly, you are a machine

😂. I used to keep my papaws boat tied to the dock and it would just constantly fill up with rain. I could empty the whole thing out in 10-15 minutes with a big drink cup. Even faster with a 5 gallon bucket

@MediumMouthBass, you can give up red meat if you get bitten by the wrong tick

Beer

Jon boats come equipped with a large Taco Bell cup for water removal

Sounds like fishing to me ! It’s like a box of chocolates. I got 2 LM this year that were 21+”, 4-5 lbers (one was 4.86 and the other I was in a tiny kayak without scale). I can go several years without getting a largemouth over 2-3 lbs, they aren’t common where I fish, I’m always in smallmouth dominated waters

Thats def one of the areas where it never stops, Wilson dam was grand central station when I went 😂 in East TN that’s chickamauga

That was a good boy. Our dogs would dig up the field and unplug all the communication cables
