Welcome from the 'tropical paradise' that's Minne-snow-ta. 🤪

Off and on I do scale modeling - usually Sci-Fi or X-Planes (XB-70, YF-12, etc) Here's a couple that I've done over the years

^ Yep - except topwaters (spooks, whopper-ploppers, etc) Then it's nylon-mono.

^ The band was heavier the further towards 94 you got - we got 2.5" here by Tonka

Fuego CT - Tatula CT....only difference is the T-Wing on the Tat - otherwise identical. Some don't like the T-Wing.

^ The SF's are what I use - casting and spinning.

Socks and covers on everything....there are socks for spinning rods, they're a little wider to accommodate the larger guides towards the handle.

^ They skip real well, though.

I do the same thing - and with Mobi-Office on my tablet and phone...I have instant access to it where-ever I am. I do the same thing - and with Mobi-Office on my tablet and phone...I have instant access to it where-ever I am.

I keep saying that eventually they'll declare Distilled Water as hazardous.

Bite your tongue - I've got three Patriarchs, all bought used for under $100 each....favorite reels in my arsenal.

Bit bigger than 'Tonka - 14,500 acres, 125 miles of shoreline. Been fishing it off-and-on for almost 40 years and still haven't figured it out.

Three relatives were in that - Grand Uncle John Hoffschire, injured during Market Garden...one of his nurses was Grand Aunt Irja Ryssy and they got married in '46. Her brother was Lt. Cdr John W. Ryssy, senior captain of a 4-frigate USCG escort flotilla across the Atlantic and later the Pacific.

Daiwa Fuego CT

All depends on how far they can kick that can down the road....

I had one on my old canoe - really made life better.

I'm also planning on taking advantage of the longer season....

When I had the truck - I'd mount my Action Camera to the topper-window, then connect it via Wi-Fi to my 8" tablet....gave me a high-up angle back-up camera.

Get out more often - hopefully on a boat occasionally (only once this past year). Tighten up my finesse game with more options.
