Thread: Lures from yester year

Red worms, dug from the garden at home.
Slip bobbers, adjusted by a knot that my dad taught me to tie..sure wish I could remember how.
Pole was a fiberglass job..who knows what brand.
Hooks were usually gold.

Reel was a Johnson Century, push button, loaded with...fishing line...brand names were not important.
Usual was to walk the bank, a boat was a luxury, rented.
Bluegills were the most common catch, destined for lake Crisco.

Memories.

And how could I forget. Digging worms behind the cow barn at my grandmothers (in the manure). Then walking down to the river to catch suckers, perch, catfish, carp, KY bass, bluegill, or anything else that happened along
