Oh please don't say that. I told the wife I wasn't going for another couple of weeks due to allowing the water to warm up a bit. This might make me into a liar. lol. I just might have to put in at hopyard landing and give the River a try.

Sorry to hear that Fish Chris. I'm the only lefty I know in my family.I know my mom, dad, brothers, and sister are all right handed and what to think the rest outside is too. My son we think will be both. He uses his right hand most but he will switch and use his left at times. Is it still to early to tell in a three year old? Can you write with your left hand Fish Chris?

WTG! Nice pics. I caught three dinks at lake Orange today. So hopefully it's that time soon. I'm very eager and can't wait. My wife's excited too. she going this year too with me!

The magic shads are great, even greater on a chatterbait.

The spring sale is going now. Look at the GSX Tournament rods. They run, I think 60-80 bucks depending on model. Very nice rods for the money, also include a lifetime over the counter warranty and full cork or split grip, depending on what you prefer. The Tec Spec rods are pretty nice for the price too. I had a coupon last spring and picked one up. I don't use it often but its well built and seems reasonably sensitive. Beat me to it.

I'm not sure how good they are but the GSX at gander mountain are $79. They look and felt good when I was messing with them. (the blueish/purple looking one) They GSX tournament is 25% off. They're originally $99.

I never used Fireline but I do have the 832 right now. I have a hard time pitching jigs with it. I have to feed the jig line after my pitch to get it to fall straight. I bought it mainly to be use with rubber frogs anyways. Just it's still winter and my jig set up I have to get the reel service. It's winding up the line to the right side. Not sure what's the problem.

I never had to mess with mine. I just set my tension knob how I like it and leave my break on 4 or 5 and change that when needed. They're others who know allot more than me but I don't see why you need to mess with it. If there is I'll be glad to know why and how myself cause I never attempted to mess around with it.

Wheres Lake Rooty at? How far is it from Caroline county?

I was raised around both breeds. Domestic and the fighters. I never owned nor would I attend to train it to fight. My brother's pit he foolishly trained his to fight so anytime you grab her by the collar she attacks my dog. other than that they got along. I even been bite by his dog not intentional but when and if my brother's get into a physical fist fight the dog would grab us by the leg and pull which one of us she has off. As soon as were separated she lets go and stops. I have a scar on my leg from her. I think my brother John does too. Unfortunately cause of our younger brother miss treatment she was later force to be put to sleep cause of the same kind of scenario at his dad's place when he moved there. All she was doing was trying to break a fight, cause she does let go and stop after your separated. Only downfall I have about them is they're hyper dogs and those tails of theirs. They very passionate dogs and will literally cry for the owners if they leave. Only problem we got around the place I'm out now is this chow here. It will attack my nieces little dog. But doesn't my moms or our poodle when we had her. But for my niece's dog that chow has left some nasty deep gashes in her.

I'm sorry I don't know anything but just wanted to say good luck and have fun!

Did you get your lure back? Luckily for me the two I caught one was on minnow and other on wacky. So no loss there.By the way great pic.

That's probably will be my route I take when the time comes! I'll never buy a 14' new again either not when there's craig list.

You looking to only spend $600? Craiglist will be the way to only go if so. Out right brand new(in VA) I paid after all said and done $803 and some change for my tracker14 and that's just for a regular jon boat. The freight charge sucks, $68 I think I paid. I would just keep an eye out in craiglist and see what you can find. I came across some great deals in there. You might find them already decked how you want or just the boat for $100-$300 and you might just have to put some work in. My problem was when I had my money and ready to jump on a deal nothing was there which then I decided to buy new. Good luck with your search.

I love the color and your background looks like a great place to relax the mind. I could just just relax sitting on the rocks listening to the stream.

I tried to take my son out at that age and all he wanted to do is play in the water or run in the woods if near by. He loves the woods. I can't wait to take him camping when gets a little older. I'm going to try again this year since he turn 4 in August to take fishing again. That's my son in the avatar. I want to say that was spring last year. Good luck and WOW on casting a baitcaster. Have fun and post the pics!

Thanks Fish Chris!

Here's mine. Tracker Topper 14. I did all the work to it. Took it today and did great besides battery dying. I'm impressed with the BPS Prowler 50 lb thrust motor. It really does get the job done.The boat was more steady than I thought too. Still trying to get use to the foot pedal and get my depth finder working properly. The pics date is wrong! I keep forgetting to set it on my camera. It's nothing fancy but........................ Just messing Fish Chris for me its a huge upgrade from my 11' sears jon boat. Sadly I caught nothing today not even a bite. It was nice to get out with my brother. My brother lost his only one right at the boat LOL!! Boy was he mad! Like I told him if I'm skunked he will be too!!

When I had my 11' boat, I mounted like a foot from the back seat to the side of boat up high as could go. Pain to see when trolling on opposite side of finder but thought that was best suited.

I don't know but I'm geared up ready to go. Just got some final touches to do on the boat and get the trailer ready.

Has anybody yet try this line out or know much about it eand if so what are your thoughts?

This just answered my question. I'm going with shaky heads myself. Any good colors this time of the year? What size jig should be used?

Is Diascound open year round and how is the fishing there? http://www.dgif.virginia.gov/fishing/waterbodies/display.asp?id=41

It Almost killed my mother. She was rushed by ambulance and had emergency surgery. They said if was driven by me or someone else it would have killed her. She was put on the colostomy bag for close to a year. They was able to reverse it and she no longer on it.

Here's my boat do I have to mount it like this or can I mount it along the side the boat like the second pic where the paint is.
