only 50lb mono? you must've been fishing around the ultra-lite crowd:-& . i saw more 80lb braid in '09 for pinks then i've seen in my life
Fishing relaxes me. It's like yoga, except i still get to kill something.

Ill be at the puke alot. Takin the kids and the wife down the hill. Ill be using an ultra light trout rod for most of my pink fishing. I will be bringing my back up rod just incase alot of silvers or kings start showing up. I wanna fight a nice bright pink with 4lb test and a noodle for a rod it just sounds like fun. I used a med trout rod last few years and it still seemed a lil too much lol. Im game for a meet up down there. I mean it is only 10-15 min from my house.
More fish please!

Sounds like it might be fun. I was thinking maybe bringing my grand kids with their ultra light Dora and Cars rods. So I will say maybe.
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

The section of the levee we fish doesn't require waders, other spots may thou.
