Reply With QuoteThe blue rod on top is a Browning Silaflex Graphite #332980 and the red one is a Shakespeare Alpha XT # SAS 2663. My wife suggested I cut out her face since she is camera shy. Both rods were $10 a rod. Was it a good deal?

A nice fun intersting day
Hit the pond around 11AM. Nice and chilly. It must of been 57 degrees or so. It was nice and sunny. Wife caught the first rainbow trout and I caught a very small rainbow a few minutes after her. Her second cast landed her a 10 LB chub. She decided to take the needle nose pliers and pick him up by the mouth. She releases him and guess what else?? The needle nose pliers as well! Doh I laughed and laughed at her. I wish I had a video of it. Thank god I had a spare in my tacklebox. So anyway she beat me with 5 trout and I only had 1. Her biggest trout was maybe a 4-5 LB trout. I wish I had something to weigh him. Left about 2:15 PM since we had to go somewhere and brought home the keepers. On the way back someone was selling rods o' plenty. Brought home 2 rods for $20 together. One is a Shakespeare and the other is a Browning. Both are in mint condition and looked like they were barely used if at all. I got a pic of my wife and her trout and will get pics of the rods I bought. I want you guys to tell me if I got a sweet deal

It was one heck of a great day! Went fishing at Swartswood lake and only caught a baby pumpkin seed sunfish. Went back to the ol' fishing hole where we caught the trout and got skunked pretty bad. Maybe its the overcast weather? Had a couple hits but no tight lines
