    Went to the northwest sportsmans show today at the Minneapolis convention center. Convinced myself I needed a new bait casting rod and a bunch of bass plastics.

    It’s a trap. Sublimital messages over loudspeakers. It’s not your fault. ;)

    Just a good thing I don't have the funds and vacation time to book a trip with any of the lodges that were at the show.

    I usually have to put a blindfold on and have my friends lead me around so I don't walk out with the whole store.

    I was able to get out for a little bit this morning. I landed two nice Browns on a white rooster tail. It was pretty cold. My rod guides were freezing. image.jpg

    Fishing and hunting are some EXPENSIVE hobbies. There have been a few times I've had a few beers and ordered +$500 worth of stuff online. Oh well, totally worth it.

    My first experience with salt water fish. It was fun. Roughly 35” and over 20 lbs For the big one.

    Nice, that’s an amazing start for your first time in the salt. They’re hard fighting fish, especially on light tackle. Drum are my favorite fish to catch, hence my username.

    Any of you anglers start using microwave guides for braid? I love braid but it has one detriment...wind/air knots. I throw a lot of plugs when surf fishing and these knots happen the majority time with plugs, due to the action and retrieve.

    I've heard mixed reviews on the microwave guides. Never used them myself but I did notice some manufacturers taking them off some models of rods when I worked at Gander Mountain.

    Any lb test when throwing lures, 12-30 lb. When bait fishing I have no issues.

    I will try using power pro, I use other brands. Like I posted, this happens (to me) with lures only which makes sense.
