I took a flycasting class once and soon was able to get a lot more distance with my spinning reel. My problem now is over shooting. Although once in a while I will slap the water 2 feet in front of me (I haven't figured out what that is about). The last time I went with my brother bass fishing...

No apologies. No apologies. I shamelessly eat pellet heads and brooders. Isn't that why they are put here?

Helpful Helpful Thank you plunkme.

Oh goody Oh goody Wahoo, another reason to go shopping:clap::clap:

Thanks for the info. Thanks for the info. Seems there are two camps on this issue but the info has helped me a lot. I'll get really skilled with my spinning combo and maybe later enjoy the back up of a caster.

If I wait another fifty years. If I wait another fifty years. Okay so it seems that spinning reels are not as accurate but can cast lighter lures but bait casters are more accurate. It definitely sounds like there is a niche for the bait casters especially for bass but it sounds like the...

Here's how I will be doing most of my fishing. Here's how I will be doing most of my fishing. Probably not steelhead for a bit, since I don't have a clue right now. Eventually I'll get brave. I will most likely be trout fishing in local lakes and streams and sometimes when I hike. I'd like...

If this question has been answered before let me know. I tried to do a search and did not find anything but I bet there is something here somwhere :think: I'm returning to fishing after far to many years and I have a reliable spinning setup and only know how to use that type of reel. But I'm...

Scary Scary That is pretty scary. There is so much stuff around. I have a friend that picked something up like what was described. The docs just kept treating and treating but did not know what it was. Ended up in the hospital with 10cm of ulcer in her colon. Lost a bunch of weight and sick...

I wondered about why the city or Washington County did not test it. Since that is a neighborhood park with kids likely to play there I would have been surprised. I mean, what kid can resist getting their hands in there for soemthing. But then again . . .

Invasive fish species. Invasive fish species. :shock:Almost like a third world country. I think I liked the invasive fish discussion better :confused:

Never knew of so many trails. Never knew of so many trails. It is a nice site. Very active and full of people exploring new routes and trailblazing. I'd like to hear how you do at Wahtum Lake when you go.

another forum to check another forum to check If you are going soon you might check with Portland Hikers. It is a great hikers forum. Not much into fishing but there is always somebody checking out the areas especially now with the low snow levels that we are having. You might find a recent...

Hmmm, I dunno Hmmm, I dunno Hmm, what to do, what to do? I'm thinking I'll just practice my casting and wait to find something on the North Fork Reservoir or Trillium lake when it thaws. I may not catch anything but I will have a great time hangin' out. I see a pack rod as something I'll be...

Sigh. Sigh. Okay, I'm good with catch and release, but what about eating just one little fishy if I'm lucky enough to catch one? As much as I'd like one a steelie is probably a bit ambitious for me. How about Blue Lake for trout? Do I need a hazmat suit for that too. I hope not :pray:
