ottosmagic13 Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 Finally getting around to creating one of these! Hey Y'all, I'm a 30yo special education teacher that enjoys fishing during my free time. I've been a fly fisher (trout mainly) much longer than I've been a bass angler. Much of that has to do with going to school in PA a few hours away from some of the best trout streams in the country. Moving back to Upstate NY, while there are a few trout streams, has seen me get heavier into targeting other species. Bought my first baitcaster this year and have really started enjoying bass fishing. The main places I fish are in my profile but 95% of the time i'm bank beating unless I happen to borrow a kayak or rent a boat for a day here and there. Won't lie, I'm happiest wading up a stream with a fly rod but as I'm fleshing out my arsenal and improving my presentations bass are quickly becoming favorites. Tight lines! Double stickfish! Ned rigs and small tubes for creek SMB with a buddy and SNAG! Other times it works out as planned! Quote

Subaqua Adinterim Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 Welcome - I live in Penfield, and similar to you, was mostly into trout fishing until a few years ago. I started getting into bass fishing more and was really helped out by the advice I received from this site. When I get a chance now, I fish mostly the smallest finger lakes out of my ultralight canoe. Because of the information gathered from the experienced and really helpful folks here, I am able to go out and have more fun, catching more fish. Best of luck; you will really benefit from the stuff you can learn here. 1 Quote
Onvacation Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 Welcome. Wading through a stream doesn't sound too bad actually. Quote
