Transition from skis to rods began today. It was the 10th year fishing opener with my go to fishing friend. Good times. Upside down for the win

Beauties. Are you seeing any Hendricksons yet or is it still early for them?

**east or bust** · 04-11-2018, 08:11 PM

SFB sorry to hear bout K. I had a good time sharing the boat with him. Hope all else is well, come see us, I have some carp bros too.

Thought I'd say somethin' about the first & second weeks in May within a mile of the NYS/VT line(Battenkill), but realized...it was back in the early and late 90s

L8's been around the area in this century.....

What reel you throwing? I have been using an Orvis Hydros for the last 5 years and it is starting to get twitchy when something takes it for a long screaming run, I haven't gotten much love from Orvis since it is discontinued in the 11/12. Thinking of switching it up
Nice poon! I am going to try for its twin next week
