Nice fish, any day you can hold a few in your hand is a good one.

Hi, that was a great intro, I should have had you right mine lol. I’m very simmalar to you haven’t fished since I was a kid now I’m all in trying to learn stuff. Soft plastics has been the bait for me this summer hard not to get a bite on them if you haven’t tried them yet.

Yeah, I’m pretty much there now. My new stuff is a huge upgrade from my one Walmart combo and tackle box. I’m already thinking about my next setup (that I promised myself I wouldn’t buy till next spring). Who would have ever thought getting my grandson a fishing rod for Easter would turn into this lol. It certainly rekindled something inside me from when I was a kid. I think one more setup and I’ll be good(wink,wink). That will let me cover most of the bases for the fishing I do around here. That one more to play the short stop position feels pretty important right now lol.

That awsome, really hoping to pick one up next spring lots of small ponds Around here that would be perfect for. Good luck with it.

Hi guys, as I started saying in the wrong place earlier I just upgraded all my stuff. Sadly that’s only 2 rods and a pack. I picked up a fantastic new Curado k, (it’s awsome) and put it on a bass pro carbon lite 2.0 6’6” mh I really like the set up. I also got a Shimano nasci 2500 on a 6’6” carbonlite 2.0 medium fast which I also really like. A new bp tackle backpack. Swapped all my stuff over from a $12 three tier Walmart box, what a improvement. This is by far the best quality gear I’ve ever had and I’m pretty excited about it. The Curado is my first baitcast set up and I’m having fun getting used to it. That’s it for now just wanted to share my excitement on this rainy day.

This is a great thread. I live InMethuen and this is great info very useful. I only know a few small ponds myself but this thread will help that allot.

Thanks everyone. Lots of great info here. Just upgraded all my gear(2 rods and new pack lol) pretty excited to get some time on the water. It’s been brutally hot here, fishing has been slow but I’ve got a few on the new stuff. I just realized this is probably the wrong spot for this post.

Thanks everyone

Today’s rainy day catch. Have a few more working on sizing pics

How’s it going. I just recently this spring got back into fishing when I got my grandson a fishing rod for Easter. I used to go quite abit when I was a kid but it faded away as I grew up. I forgot how much I enjoyed it. Anyway been going as often as I can now and starting to build up some tackle and gear. P.s. sorry my spelling grammar is not that great. Poor actually to be honest.
