tried out some fishheads rainbow roe yesterday, what can i say it works great and puts fish on the bank!

it honestly all depends on what species you're fishing for. for example, for under $40 i wouldn't use anything for lakers. that's not me being snobbish either. although i'm sure you could land a decent lake trout on a $30 combo, i've never had a $30 combo in my hands that felt rugged enough...

they're nice suits but don't breathe well so you've got to layer properly underneath with synthetic wicking materials, NOT cotton. also, i've heard that the camo suit, because of the outer material, will collect snow and have it stick to you, for example flying around on a snowmobile with snow...

nice fish, always nice to see some warmer water species this late in the season. pike looks closer to 2 lbs though, definitely nowhere near 4-5

this is a big one for me. my first few outings this fall were seeing me go 0/3, 1/4, so on. those were very bad days, but i have them once in a while. that said, this season has probably been my most productive yet, i'd say the ratio is 1 skunk for every 4 outings.

bead is always the same, about 2" from hook. the premise behind the bead kind of betrays the idea that a fish would be hooked on the outside of the mouth, no? fish eats bead and immediately turns around to return to its lie. as it turns and runs, the tension on the line pulls the bead out of...

to be honest i wouldn't even believe a story like that on a forum, hearsay leaves too much to the human mind and everyone knows people on the internet like to talk nonsense lol. i've never heard of that "80% of bead hookups are on the outside of the mouth". all the fish i've hooked on beads...

i figured we were on the same page :) 12lb is definitely overkill for steelies. at least you and i think so anyways lol

this is something that's always been preached but i've never experienced. IMO, the use of swivels in conjunction with a quality monofilament eliminates this problem entirely. i've always been a side caster and only ever had line twist problems with the raven 8lb in fl. green i also have a swivel...

although it's not a bad idea to learn the wallis, i agree with Buck in learning the side cast first. at the very least, it will allow you to get fishing faster and therefore retain a joy for pinning. if you spend too much time dealing with birds nests from bad wallis cast attempts, you're never...

WATCH OUT EVERYONE THERE MIGHT BE A FISH IN THE ROUGE....better delete the thread!!! LOL......

thought i'd throw in an update here. loving the korkers boots, have been putting them through the ringer and still no complaints. the kling-on soles are surprisingly reliable even on rocks, was fishing a freestone GB trib this past weekend and thought i might be slipping and sliding, but not the...

wow some of these methods are quite creative hahaha. what i do - collapse my rod into 3 pieces. i don't care how much lead is below the float. reel in until float is at top guide. i then take the line below the float down to the reel handles, wrap the line around the handles until there's about...

whatever you do don't get the procat. IMO, a garbage heater. i had mine for 2 days and returned it. bought a mr. buddy heater and never looked back. i bought the $5 piece that allows me to use it with a 20lb propane tank. golden.

NICE combo ALN! you're gonna love that rig, no doubt about it. as for some of the tackle recommendations.....size 4 hooks? man what are you guys fishing for.. LOL the biggest hook i will use for steelhead is a #10, and to be honest in most instances it's a #12. pair that with a 4-5lb fluoro...

easy. KAST fishing gloves. 100% waterproof, 100% dunkable, great for tailing fish, warm as hell, it's an incredible feeling to be able to dunk your hands in the water to tail a fish and remain 100% dry and warm. the only thing you need to take them off for is tying knots. otherwise they allow...

watching it in slow mo is funny as hell though lol

that still happens to me lol. i landed a nicely coloured 6 pounder on the weekend, went to clean it off in the water for a pic, lost my grip on its tail and goodbye fish. it was the only one of any size that day, so i was kicking myself all night. i lose sleep over not getting good pictures with...

yup. break it off

HAHAHAHAH "it's a nice one, it's gonna spool me!" man i can't count the times i've heard some of those cliche lines. one of my favourites is "should have been here yesterday, couldn't keep em off!" lol
