b2187101 Posted May 5, 2021 Posted May 5, 2021 Hello, I used to love fishing when I was about age 9-13 on the Maumee River. Zebco was my equipment and what my very nice uncle gave to me. I caught plenty of drum, catfish, and some kind of very small brown bluegill looking fish; always was disappointed. Once I waded into the rapids of the Maumee River for the walleye run in jeans and tennis shoes; all I managed to consistently catch were the waders of the fishermen in front of me, I caught plenty of them! Thanks to my parents, I was always allowed either one subscription to Field and Stream, or Sports Afield. My 12 year old bucket list fish was a Musky... so many great magazine stories. I will leave all my 100s of questions for the appropriate forums. Thank you. Quote

gunsinger Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Welcome back to the joy of fishing. I took a long hiatus myself after all my rods and tackle was stolen out of the back of my truck just after leaving the service. My kids got me back into it a little over a year ago and I'm wondering now why I ever stopped. 1 Quote
Super User Darren. Posted May 27, 2021 Super User Posted May 27, 2021 Welcome aboard! ?? A lot of what's changed is how companies hook-line-and-sink fishermen to the latest gear. No wait...that tactic's been around forever..... Quote
