Thanks guys.

Hello everyone. Its been a while since I've logged in. Last week I was doing hurricane prep and this week I've been busy with cleanup so I've not had much extra time to get on here. I got really lucky. No damage to my home and power was back on Monday night when I returned home from the shelter. I hope everyone else fared as well as I did.

I don't have a ton of tackle, but I do have everything in one box. I just wanted the convience of being able to carry it all on my back.

Id like to try trout fishing one day. I've heard that it's very challenging.

Welcome! I'm going to figure something out once my current bag wears out. I like the Cabela's one that was mentioned earlier. I currently don't even have a backpack to use. My old one was used for a suitcase for many years and it ripped so I had to toss it.

Nice. It was a long time before I caught my first catfish.

That's awesome. Did you keep the mangrove and eat it? Those are tasty.

I miss home sometimes. There are a few good places down there now. Captain Nance's is good. Good clam chowder. I've never fished on Ocean Isle Beach. I like the cherry grove pier just across the state line. I used to fish there every Saturday for several years.

Ive never caught a bass on a nightcrawler. Panfish will tear them up but bass don't seem to want any part of them for me. I have caught bass on plastic worms so that one is a mystery.

I don't know about oyster bay but in sea trail if you stay out of the golfers way nobody will say anything to you.

There's some great bass fishing up that way. The ponds in Sea Trail in Sunset beach. I've caught some giants out of there.

My Parents live in Calabash. I lived there most of my life until I moved to florida.

I know Ft. Fisher. Im from right down the road about an hour.

I love my Hamilton's in 580g blue mirror. I like the Blokes. I need to try a pair of those on to see how they feel.

Some good ones so far. I got one of those telescopic poles a while back to try and experience the cane pole style. I've yet to take it out though.
