    I prefer sickles when I'm shooting docks or casting versus fishing around brush. When I'm fishing around brush, I go with light wire so I can straighten them out instead of constantly breaking off.

    Same here, Hogster may be smarter than he looks?

    WE will see if you to goobers can hurdle that bar while waiting in line for fried fish at camp.
    There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.
