I love fishing Pogo to is into fishing. Been fishing since I was a kid we used to walk down to the beach on Long Island Sound and catch Blue Fish and Flounder.
A Penn spinning reel a 6 ft. pole and that was it. We always came home with fish. Now a tour through Pro Bass's store and the equipment they have is incredible nowadays. Hell the fish don't stand a chance. Good luck JD.

My local Publix supermarket carries wild caught Salmon fillets, but they are seasonal, of course, and they keep them sealed package in a hidden freezer away from all the seafood, , about $18-20 a piece. Every time I go by I look for them and get a couple, we try to eat salmon at least once a week. They'll be all gone in a couple weeks, I'm sure.

Best of luck with the new reel. You're gonna have a great time. Enjoy.
The creek behind our house is only ankle to knee deep but is a destination for migrating salmon/steelhead. By the time they get up here, they just want to spawn and die. Most of them are pretty beat up, semi-rotten and not worth catching. There's a run in the Spring and Fall. Every year is different. Last year was a huge run. This year, we've only seen a handful. Last year I caught one and my wife got three. We won't do it again. While the fish we caught were in pretty good shape, the meat just wasn't that good; kinda muddy and fishy. The ones caught in the big lake or larger rivers are delicious. |
