      It's undoubtedly been said before, but should be repeated:

      A bad day at fishing is better than a good day at work, any day !

      Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

        Caught 5 today. This was the average size about 15”. Got a nice 20” fish in the dark but no
        Pics. Only a couple days of fishing left.

        Maybe so. Maybe not

                        I think I am in so much shit.  Researching what I could do over the winter when lure fishing for Bass is a forlorn hope, I can across another Japanese invented system called BFS - Bait Finesse System. It is basically casting ultra-light lures (between 1 and 7 gm), with very specific rods and reels…...

                        Will be targeting Perch, Pike and Zander over the winter (if I buy the required kit  😶 😶 😶 :-X)

                          @jordanscollected - You should look into BFS ^, I think it would have some great applications in the waters you fish…

                            That will be some great winter reading and research. thanks for forwarding @Giles. My nephew fell in love with fishing this past summer and it's all he thinks about all day. I need to stay fresh and try new things or he will be taking me fishing before i know it. I appreciate the motivation.

                              It is used in US for Bass.  Developed in Japan for really finicky fish in hard fished waters….

                                      If it catches me a Perch, it's a nice Perch pattern.  If it doesn't, it's fucking crap….

                                            That’s a really nice swimbait @Giles. Those little fingers coming off will make some nice agitation in the water too. Keep up posted on the casting practice.
