LOL, that'll require a translation on this newsgroup. ;-)

I'll leave that in your capable hands.

I can understand you using that 1 wt. I sold ya on those wussy
Illinoise fish ...

It's a nice enough little bluegill rod around here but
where it really shines is on those tiny mountain streams
in North Carolina. If you ever get your Canuckistani butt
back down to the mountains of North Carolina you'll rue
the day you sold it to me.


Would love to do the Smokies again but I can't offer you anymore truck
rides though -- I drive a little oil burner now. I'm sure that will
disappoint . . .

but real fish need a man's rod.

Piffle. I was using a 10' *7wt* T&T XL on the Muskegon.

and a guide that was netting your fish 50 feet downstream BSEG

I was going to take a 6 wt. instead but because of the threat of
muskies, I didn't. After hooking that beastie, I'm glad I didn't.

Do muskies actually hit deer hair poppers ?

Do they? No kidding.

One picked John's bluegill popper clean off in about a foot of water
next to the bank. Just that familiar jaw thrust out of the water, a
swirl, and then the popper floating free downstream about 30 seconds
later.
