Sounds like fun Kevin. I hope to throw the Sports Pal in the van after lunch tomorrow & relax on the water while after Perch. Haven't had it out yet this yr.
Supposed to fish that old pay lake (from the 70's) over in Hooker with it this weekend if my buddy comes up.
Cold Front,
I go purdy cheap on the rods, I'd go through to much money breaking the more expensive ones out there & they can't hold up to the 7' Ugly Stik Lite Pro in ultra lite mod. I use the most. Second I use the old brown Fenwicks with the cork handle, like the play (fight) the Panfish give it. Gonna use a 7' 3wt Fenwick tomorrow for Perchin'. On the reels nothin' special either, 1st choice is the smaller Shimano Stradic but the cheap Okuma Stratus StX20 works just fine but don't have the life span ov the Stradic. Before I die I wanna invest in wanna them there Ugly Stik Crappie rods for hittin' brush piles from the boat. Anybody have one & how do you like it?
Just took a quick count ov some rods in my kids room (53) & I think most all are over $100 bucks. Who knows how many more he has layin' 'round here???
Gotta go slice fish now
