Found myself sitting in front of the TV the other night holding my reel and just spinning while watching the tube.

LOL....I just got back my shimano and diawa reels from factory service and I sat in front of the tube and checked them all out. I love the smell of fresh reel lube in the evening, the silent whir of the rotor...

I have got it pretty bad this year. I have been down in the shop with a jug of RTV silicon making unconventional fishing stuff.

I really will not start fishing till may. I will go a few times before that just to play with a couple of small fish but for the most part I have a couple more months to go.

I tie a sock onto one of my old Tog rods with a Penn Jigmaster and 50Lb. mono.

I go out in my yard and go Dogfishing. Literally.

My three dogs LOVE to play tug of war with the sock.

Sometimes, I actually feel as though I'm reeling in a monster Tog.

The neighbors think I have a screw or two loose.

So does my wife.

And my family.

And my friends.

Oh well........................
