Holy poop, there it is!  Thank you Dhop.  Thank you.

I looked all over for it, then googled it.  I found a fishing website that took me to a message board that said Shimano was doing away with them on cheaper models.  Goes to show you not to trust message board chatter lol.

Thank you.  I like this reel now

I think you’ll find it to be a decent reel. Pretty smooth and good antireverse for its price point.

Catch and release is the only way to bass fish! Hopefully gonna get out today if the ice let's up enough. Getting the boat out on Eagle Creek tomorrow. 

 

Meh.  I fish for table fare...that is to say I like to eat fish.  Bass is not one of them.  Used to to bass fish in some local tournaments.  Always have been into bluegill, redear, crappie, perch, walleye, and the occasional pike through the ice.

Have to say this thread is depressing me I really only started fishing half-@$$ seriously last summer but for the last few days it’s all I have been thinking about now that deer season is about over. I guess I’ll wait for the thaw but it seems like forever away.

I got a buddy from Muncie that goes there to striper fish.

Well my Grandpa(RIP) used to say that if you didn't have ice by Jan. 15th the odds were you wouldn't be icefishing around here for the season.  The clock is ticking and it ain't looking good.  Might have to venture up to the U.P. to get my fix.

[Rico 2,991]

Dang, looking at the extended forecast.  Might be making some ice early next week around here.  Getting the gear ready.

Well, joking aside.  A few more days of this cold weather that I am receiving here and I will venture out.  But I won't take my dog.

I don't live in central Indiana, but I bet some guys are eyeballing Summit Lake right now.

Rico,

that was awesome! thanks

On my way to the lake yesterday...

I got a buddy from Muncie that goes there to striper fish.

When he is here he should drop down to Badin also. HRL has striper, Badin has a bit larger.
