new rod & fishing
Permalink  

Finely said to hell with it and when my buddy called and said he was going fishing , i packed me and moma up and headed out, besides i wanted to test out my new rod i made at the first "basic rod building class".

got there and every one said "not even a bite", figures, well with me and walking and standing i was starting to hurt after about 2 hrs and told the wife lets go.

Well she promptly catches a dang flounder (only fish got all day today by any body), thank god it was undersized heheh, we left but she did so begrudgingly !

oh and the rod worked fine, well except for the "catchin part", hehe

surely, there was no question that your new rod was going to work, was there?

where did you go to fish?
