RE:Winter Steel
I wish I had pics of ben and his fish. He had to take off. You atleast had a chance to see his winter run. He also had a summer run.

RE:Winter Steel
LOL The river is in no shape for boober and wigs. But when it is Ill do it for ya so you can see. When I only see 8 fish total taken from the bank and 5 of them came from me and my family. One day youll say it Jens. One day youll admit it. Right now I challange you to catch a fish period there. Since ya never caught one drifting maybe I should say same to ya. When ya can drift for a steelie Ill give ya props. Since Ive always heard fishing with bobbers is for kids and newbs. lol Gl out there.jens wrote:I can't see your fish at all. Maybe I am blind with envy?
I will challenge you to catch one the way my group fishes for them, then I will applaud your skills.. Deal? :thumleft: :thumleft:

RE:Winter Steel
I do the same but some times I prefer to use no swivel. More wobble without swivel, but only do that when nothing else works
RE:Winter Steel
watch out because the hole in the spoon can cut your line and cost u fish or fly off into the depths trust me on that

RE:Winter Steel
Hahaha, I didn't take a pic, but I ended up with one of those chums too today. On the same spoon. With only one swivel though. But that was after my Lamiglass broke AGAIN. I'm never buying another lamiglass pole in EVER. How can a six pound fish TOPS break a pole rated for 15 pound test fishing twelve pound main and ten pound leader? Lost me the only steel that bumped today and a couple hundred bucks to boot.

RE:Winter Steel
XMG 50s have a lifetime warrenty. Bring it down your out gas money but fish the cowlitz on the way home. Lamis are gr8 rods sometimes you need to have work on em. But they are local and most lamis you can get it done for life.
More fish please!
RE:Winter Steel
i will vouch i have heard some bad things bout the xmg. the cert pros are better and will not fail you trust me.
