Hey Newb from SE MA.

Hello all,

 

Ma. Guy here.

I used to be fanatical about fishing, as a kid I took the bus from Porter Sq. In Somerville with my friends to Spy Pond in Arlington as often as possible, some good fish in there..."hint- bass like worms here, tons of small eels used to be in there...they were around me when I took a dip behind the Boys/Girls club end docks).

Then I went through a period where I went to a friend's house after work on Friday, we'd fish DE at night, come home and grab a couple, take the canoe all day in different ponds/lakes, then Rinse and Repeat at LEAST through Sunday night.

Biggest fish is somewhere between 7-8 no scale, many 5s and a few 6s before that, and she was way bigger than them.

I'm a worm guy, caught her on about a 4"(if that) Rapala.

Snapped off numerous big bass on brand new Ande 10lb test back then (so happy for Braid now) in Edaville Reservoir in Carver Ma....been told that is where the State Record REALLY came from (Not Sampson), whether true or not I will never know.

Finally coming back to fish, new gear, no canoe, unless I go with my BIL, who lives in Norway Me.

 

Glad to see everyone here.

 

Thanks
