[quote CoyoteSpinner]I'm just glad you said "left hand" - oh wait - unless you're left handed, THEN I'd have to worry and question. [/quote]
While this doesn't bolster your confidence in me: I am, in fact, a southpaw. I use a 7' trigger rod and palm a standard right-handed reel. As a result, my left hand is in charge of all rod control. And after 70 fish, multiple dozens of which were 1lb+, it was worn out.
[quote CoyoteSpinner]Do you have a fish-clicker? [/quote]
Nope. We just keep count.
[quote CoyoteSpinner]Hey - I'm glad to see any fish-post that doesn't include decimated dehydrated Pelican porn, or plummage. [/quote]
I would like to clarify for those who don't know me, that I fish like crazy (probably averaged 2 outings per week this summer) - BUT that I almost NEVER take fish. In fact, the ONLY time I take fish is when extended family visits (because I stir up their envy, texting them pictures of my myriad catches) specifically for the purpose of having some fun and enjoying a fish fry.
My wife and kiddos are still learning to like fish - after five too many terrible trout dinners in foil. So I prefer to let them live to be caught another day.
(Okay, conscience cleared...)
[quote CoyoteSpinner]So -those all bass, or mixing in the panfish in the pantry? [/quote]
99% bass. All in all, our group caught somewhere just above 190 fish. All were LMB, excepting 2 rainbows.
