Finally got to head out to the bruce for some fishing, maybe played a little hooky. . . Got a couple steelies on roe bags for the first time! Lost two others but had some great fights none the less... Nothing like watching that float disappear! Lots of fun today and can't wait to head back out there! Hope you guys enjoy the photo's! (if you can see them that is!) Cheers!

For the future, if you want to embed the photo's into the post rather than a link, copy the link and put it into the "Insert Image" function located at the bar on top of the post screen.

Hope you don't mind me putting them up like this :)

Thanks man! No, I don't have a pin yet, just a spinning combo. Not as effective in some circumstances, but seems to get the job done! I've got a lot of work to do in terms of fishing different flows and depths. Still haven't got it down yet! There was a guy fishing in some faster shallow water just hittin' em one after the other, I just watched in awe! Wish he practised C and R though but what can ya do!?

I've got a spinning reel too. I like that if i get bored i can just take off my float and the hook and then set up a catfish rig or something with out even changing reels.lol
