for those don,t already know >. I have a bad habit when it comes to fishing gear >>>> I just use it or lose it ;;
As anyone who has fished with me >>.after dark >> its up to them to tie my knots & change my plugs ;;
sometimes I just can,t see it or often they suck ;;
yes its true /that two seasons ago /commercial fishing /into large __ I used the same frayed /leader the whole nite /wouldn,t change & went back with the same setup the next nite .. I didn,t drop a single fish :;
well b/B, ers there are other like me >>>
this is the truth / these two plugs were not taken out of the mixed up pile in the garage ;;
today I was coming home from work & conditions were just right for my favorite shore spot ;; which has sucked completely this fall ;;
i get there and things look perfect ;
I get my trustly >. somekind of spinng rod & reel with the best plug IMO on the market >SMACK-IT walk to MY spot @ on my 2nd cast I spot a plug in the eelgrass /I quickly retrieve it & toss it up on the shore >> i continue to plug in these great conditions /casting in a complete 180 >>> then walk a little further /do it again / same results >>> nothing again from My spot >. so F#$%^&* it /outta there .. I go back & pick up the plug & as i walk to the truck .. I see another plug laying in the grass @ the high tide mark /I pick that one up also / walk to the truck & gently put my gear in thE back ;;
Now I have time to check out what I found [1] was a pretty new N/N popper with out much use on it / the other a well know swimmer that i personally know produces :: that has signs of doing a fight with fish ;;
upon further inspection these are the things i noticed / that were a telltale sign that someone is coping my style ><><
