Re: Proposition! Looking to Rent a Fly Rod

I have an 8ft., 7/8 wt. Martin , rod only, which I'll trade for a 5 wt. of similar quality..........nothing fancy but in good shape.

Sorry, no spare reel, or the type of line you mentioned.

Kindly send a PM if you are interested.

cheers.

A person can get all creative with foam poppers. :D

:shock:

Re: My first Freshwater Drum (Sheephead)

Years ago when we used to put in at Napanee to fish walleye, Drum were plentiful. (probably still are) So we kept 4 or 5, filleted and fried them. Found them to have a delicate taste, and very good. - not hard to catch. If memory serves, they have a lateral line which we removed, just because. The l...

Don't get me wrong.... I have no problem with sanctuaries...... I was just wondering if it was something else since they are closed all year....... Not a dig at you, Bradford. All you did was ask the question. Nice to see someone showing an interest. The Rideau (for eg.) really gets nailed with res...

Thank you, RJ; Glad to see some folks on side regards the plundering of the pannies. I argued for years for a limit on Crappies; this at a time when one could go out every day and fill a 5 gal pail. Believe me, that time existed. Now the limit is 30/day. Try and catch 30. Not very many years ago you...
