    Fly fishing smallies

    Those were some nice fish. Thank the Lord for GoPros for the hands-free filming, too! I was going to float the canoe this morning on a small lake to do some filming and plan to only bring the flyrod now and keep it simple. Thanks for sharing!

    How deep is deep for you? Our bigger spools hold up to 300' of 1/4" line. If you used some of the 1/8" super braids they make these days, you could really drop it down there.

    That's awesome! That's the boat my gramps had that got me hooked on fishing as a kid - and what I had in mind when I wrote up the Standard V copy on the new site. The GCJ would be perfect for it. What do you like to chase with it?

    Fishing in chocolate milk 6/9

    Maybe it's just a brown trout thing, but yellow was (and still is) my go to color of choice in high, stained waters like that. Browns absolutely crush anything yellow in those conditions, but I've never bass fished in those conditions either. Time to get out your yellow highlighter Sharpies and...

    LOL, Cap't. I've caught my fair share of crawfish as a kid up here, but only used the tails for cut bait for perch fishing on the Grand Haven pier in Lake Michigan. I do have a LOVE for crawfish fettucini, that I acquired from a restaurant called Copeland's of New Orleans on biz trips to...

    Thanks for the welcome and kind words, Colbyt - we take a lot of pride in manufacturing these systems. The spools are casted at a foundry in Muskegon, MI and we use TImkin bearings coming out of Arizona - even the automotive style brake pads we use are American made. All of the other parts are...

    That looks like a pretty easy way to do it right there! Easy pickings on a calm day. Might be a bit more challenging in waves for sure. Thanks for embedding the video. I'd be in serious trouble if I lived where you could get fresh crab like that - good times!

    That's a good question. It would depend on the diameter of the line you are using with the pots, and how deep the drop is. The spools hold 300' of 1/4" line, but there are super lines out there with smaller diameters that would enable someone to hold more than 300' on the spool. With a...

    This may be one of the best frogs on the market today. I started fishing with them last summer. They are a blast to fish with - whoever wins will be very pleased.
