Thanks for your kind comments!
I always get so stoked for the first summer of the year! Even if it's way harder to catch than a old winter over on the Alsea.
Gotta love that FRESH blood red meat!

Yea I guess you can attest to the ABUSE I put them through and still no leaks. haha. I'm actually surprised. Can't wait for that water to just get a little bit greener, then it's gonna be fish on with those jigs you tied! In case you folks didn't know, Jeanna can tie some AWESOME jigs! Some of the best I've seen. And she figured out how to make an exact replica of the nightmare Aero Jig!
