Re: rotary classic day 1

Anyone having any luck? Lost a really nice salmon at the boat this morning just a little north of butler but that's the only release so far! The tragedy in the loss of the fish is that I cannot remember what spoon that rod had

Re: Pro-cure Samples

Re: Show Boat

I second Dennis. Does great, long lasting work. He built me exactly what I wanted, fairly priced and incredibly durable. Surprise, did you have Dennis build the custom arch for you? I'm contemplating something similar with my planet board reels on each side and some spreader lights. I've been lookin...

Re: Introducing Myself

Well it was nice out there for quite a while, but the wind definitely picked up. It got rough but we were devoted to shaking the skunk. Trolled from 2-9 and not a thing: Beautiful sunset though
