Great story,photos and facts.Most fishermen got that Idea, Gota have this & that high dollar or you won't (can't ) catch fish..(Kinda like the Teenager thats gota have this NAME Brand or they can't go to school)..Growing up I caught many fish on Kite string with a willow limb pole with bottle cork for float..and fishing on bottom a sparkplug for weight..That SPIDERMAN would have been the Ultimate .Yea I'm spoiled now too but not with Name brands but Quality equipment

Fun times... I guess we must have just missed you guys. We might have caught a ton more if we weren't playing in your leftovers. Fun read, thanks for sharing.

cjcrappie,

Finding a good friend isn't an easy task and it's a little harder to find a good friend who likes to fish. I have many friends who like to catch fish but who don't really know how to fish and when they do catch some they only know how to catch fish by rote. In other words, if you change the variables on them, they either can't find a fish or don't know any other way to look for them. Also, they would never even consider to ask why fish tend to be in certain areas and exhibit certain behaviors at certain times of the year. If you spend time on the water and keep your eyes open I'm thinking you might run into another fishing fanatic and maybe make a new friend.

Russell and I actually had a conversation including the consideration of which kids fishing rod would work better. Spider-Man or Iron Man? I decided that the Hulk fishing pole was best. Keeping in touch with one's inner child is great isn't it?

After all, that is what we are really doing isn't it? Something about the older we get the more expensive our toys become comes to mind.

Have fun!

Ketchn,

That picture reminds me of a couple of interesting things. One, the rod but was broken and is now held together with a combination of duct tape and JBWeld. Two, Jerry mentioned that he was concerned that he didn't hear my drag screaming when that fish took off and ran. It is broken. It's a bit of a design flaw. The halo shroud around the spool makes it difficult to use the diamond shaped line keeper on the spool. So I frequently remove the spool to snap the line in place on the line keeper. By doing so, bent and broke the little metal piece that clicks when the drag gives. I'm looking for a new rod and have been meaning to go to BassPro to get another identical one. It broke when I slipped on the bank in my kayak and grabbed the rod while it was resting in the rod holder. I've got another spool on order from Purefishing. Purefishing has several brands which include Penn, Pflueger and Mitchell.

I also heard rumor that some may have a hard time believing that we caught many, many big crappie using a Spiderman pole. All I can say is that if you'd like to witness it first hand, just take me to your deep water, gnarly brush pile and I'll be happy to demonstrate.

Peace all!

Jerry,
Had a super time at your place this weekend. You and your wife are very generous and accommodating. The fishing on your lake is epic. I can't say enough. The fact you put up with Ketchen PNSP and myself in your boat at the same time is a testament to your patience. Russell

Yep, Jerry's a rock! grin next time you 3 are able to get back down here at the same time, if I have a couple days notice, maybe I can turn loose & join you. With the wife improving every day, a half day on the lake shouldn't be a problem.
