      @Giles theres a trick i learned watching youtube video's while i had a hook "barb deep" in my thumb from a thrashing Silver Bass.

      You string a firm line through the hook, press the hook so you are separating the barb from your skin, and then pull really fast to pop it out. I didn't believe it at first, but it worked on me.

      example here.

            Managed to catch some Bass today and do no further damage to myself…..

              it's like morning meditation for you i bet @Giles. I live within a couple blocks of the Minnesota river, but i never go down and cast. Maybe that should change

                If the tides are right, and I wake up, I wander down.  Warm enough to wade in shorts atm, so not even a big deal getting dressed.

                And you're right about the meditation.  I describe it as my zen time….

                  More details on the type III tour thread soon, but I managed to get a couple of trips in the last few days.

                  Spent an evening pulling cute little trout out of a fast flowing mountain river…


                  And an afternoon on the fjord going after mackerel and pollock:

                    Nice catch @neph93 congrats almost a dinner for the Cleaver gang… and what a scenery♥️

                    God has blessed you richly, so get down on your knees and thank him. Don’t forget the less fortunate or God will personally kick your ass. I’d love to do it for him, but I can’t be everywhere. Willie Nelson

                      That herringbone cap looks awesome @neph93 .

                      The journey is the objective.

                          I’ve always loved fishing for the beautiful places it exposes me to. But, Neph…That’s amazing scenery.

                            Few more shots, first from the fjord, then from the mountain. The mountain river we fished is just behind the peak on the left of the first shot. It is about 20 minutes drive away from the village you can make out, under said mountain, at the end of the fjord.

                              One of my absolute favourite things. I was doubtful about paying over $100 for a cap, but this was totally worth it.

                                    I will let you know. My grandfather was in Norway doing WW2. Above the arctic circle.
