T Lap,
My truck has ya beat, my gear (minus rods and reels) are still in the back, the beach still exists on the driver side, racks are still on the rook AND it still smells like my last Bass
This cold weather makes me smell codfish in the air... maybe next month.....?
As far as must haves etc.....
braid for live eels, started this year with PP and LOVE it mostly for hook setting power, didnt miss many fish this year...
trout rods and bluefish are a great mix in the middle of summer...
I need a A'skinz, but dont wanna give up my old trusty rain coat....
Started wearing hipers and splash pants almost exclusivly except for da Narrow.... much more comfortable....
Realized I need a bumper rod rack, I hate having to climb to put rods on the roof....
Big Wood catches Big Fish.... but my go to is the 7" silver/black rebel... just retired one that caught a bunch of mice fish and burned through 3 sets of VMC's.... it's on my wall now......
