Just wondering if forum member @fishnkamp is okay? He used to comment a lot on this page and give great advice. Maybe he's just taking a break but hopefully everything is okay. If anyone knows him personally ask him to check in.

Have wondered the same thing. Hope all is well. And like you said he did give good insight to a lot of topics, especially the daiwa reels, dobyns rods, and irod rods.

Always a thread that was equivalent to a doctoral thesis. Plus if you lived near him he'd offer to check out his equipment or take you fishing.

I'm talking to him right now.  He's good and has just been really busy and was accidentally locked out of the site after the server change.   I told him to get back on here and learn us some stuff.  

He's not locked out.  Tell him to fill out the "About Me" section on his profile.

Hello from Maryland. I am sorry I had to do some upgrades to the computer and Windows 10 caused a bunch of issues.

Since the last time on here I was put on medical retirement.  Been a lot to get settled, but I actually went back to college after 35 years in the work force. Back then I studied computer programming and business administration. We did the programming using programs like DOS, BASIC, and Fortran. That involved "punch cards" LOL. I told the administrations advisor she might have to pull out the old microfiche and we both started laughing. She said she had not thought about that for at least 2 decades, and that if something in the microfiche was missing her coworkers would battle to see who had to go pull the actual paper records the teachers filled out. Those were located in huge filing cabinets. LOL!  Now I walk in class and sit in front of a 22 inch all in one.  Things have changed.

Anyway I have another foot surgery scheduled for January and hopefully it will be my last in  a series.

If so, my wife and I will be planning a trip to Tennessee in spring. This will be a trolling trip for musky, walleye and smallies.  I will also be looking for land to retire on in the future.  

Hi Glenn,

Thanks, the issue was on my end not yours. It is good to be back around.

I think he knows every fishing guide in Tennessee off the top of his head also.  

Glad all is well. ?

Hey BigAngus752 go check out DaleHollowDave on facebook. That is the guy we intend to fish with in Tn this time.  Some of those bigger musky and walleyes are caught right now, but we won't hit it till April.  That is spring break for the college.

Welcome back

F&K is in the hoouuuuse !!!
