Polebender Invitational

[tomriker]

oh hell yeah! i can mount that to the front of my boat, drop it down with a jig into the nastiest looking hole in the lake and pull anything out! thanks for the suggestion i think i could fish alright with my left hand, but its the once i catch em and trying to get them out of the water and taking the hook out that im going to have a problem with... i guess i can just make my little brother go with me and be my bait boy

 

[Finneus Polebender]

lets not use "bring down the hammer" when we're talking about crush injurys and amputated fingers..

OK lets go with layin down the law then LOL ,and I am sure we can get some one to unhook those pesky 4lbers for ya! that purple line must be that new 1200lb braid "top of the line"

 

[Finneus Polebender]

i got out for a little bit with a friend lastnight but we just shore fished since i can't drive a boat with 1 hand and fish at the same time, and my buddy doesn't know what he's doing. so i didn't get a water temp, fished for an hour or so and no takers! threw the swimbait,jigs, and my craw, which i lost! time to order a few more i suppose! my hand was killing me by the time i got home from trying to fish it wasn't much fun

TR you got a few weeks to practice. Just take one shoe & sock off & practice reeling with your toes. I saw a video of a guy with no hands playing guitar with his feet & that guy played good.

 

[tomriker]

Lol i do have long toes and I pick up stuff all the time with my feet! I have a left handed reel so I can just fish with a jig and do alright with one hand, I just gotta figure out how to bring the fish into the boat and unhook Said fish with my toes

 

[Finneus Polebender]

I picked up another crawdad and the diver frog will kick the one back you gave me if you dont get yours by the time we get together.

 

[Darthbeans]

Diver frog? The river2sea dahlberg one? You use it yet? Was gonna order few but those legs look pretty weak....the koppers live targets i got scare me a bit too though hoping they dont tear up after like two fish they are sooooft!!!

 

[lilsalmon]

Sheesh....been gone for awhile. My coding class has been taking up my time and forcing me to use my brain.... I hope Mrs. FP is going to be there...looks like I am the only female that will be there and the only one that will have no idea what I am doing.... I didn't get the flies made that I wanted to so will have to purchase some more. If all else fails I can be tomrikers reeler inner....hehe. Sorry to hear about the finger..it sucks being gimpy. My ankle isn't wanting to behave either so I will be the one limping to the waters edge. So, what do you boys want? Tater salad? or sweets...sounds like Brandons brownies are going to be very very good......This will be very interesting...especially bringing the toon in my cruiser...

 

[Throbbit _Shane]

I can help you assemble the toon if you want. I have lots of practice lol

 

[lilsalmon]

Thanks...its actually Jeannas toon. I am going to try to bring it mostly together so it will be quicker to assemble. The fun part will be putting it back in my car wet.....hmmmmmm

 

[brandon4455]

mmm tater salad sounds good to me. and rose, i have a few streamers if you need any extra flies, black nose dace an olive woolly bugger and a few black zonkers.. ill probably be gear fishin since the 8wt is going to jay. i might have a rod by then though., depends on shippin time! :lol:

 

[lilsalmon]

Hey......how did I get a bad rep? I shouldn't have any yellow....rotest:rotest: face me you coward...:tongue: JK...that person knows they made a mistake....

I should be okay with what I have but if not stay close....hehe. I am bringing my 6 wt so you can use my 8 wt if you want. It is a Cabellas with an Orvis reel....no drag on the reel though, havent figured that out. It was a gift so i am not complaining......

that will work for sure this will definitely be fun. im gunna order a few more streamers and maybe some dries for the trip in adition to some gear. i might just have to stay close so i dont have to paddle across the pond to hand you a few hahaha . i might roll up with a nametag on me just incase nobody knows who i am :lol:. well, i'm off to bed. gunna have a dream about landing a big ass bass on an 8wt with no drag LOL.

Yep that one the legs are thin but come with replacement set and can purchase just the legs for reasonable amount no hits on it yet but the action on the thing is sick just like the clackin craws!
Havent hit any on a swim bait there yet Colby but I am sure you will change that !
Mrs P will be there too not sure if she will fish ,but I am sure she will help and hang out .
