Thread: I don't know how y'all do it....

I do the same thing plus do a bunch of hand ties

I respooled four today myself. With Daiwa J Braid X8

I quit doing my reels several years ago. Send em out now. Been changing hooks out today on JDM trout lures. Many of them come with barbless hooks and while there are a few areas I fish that require barbless I only need a few. I’ve bought a lot of what they term as Area lures, and they all come with barbless hooks. So got to get all that done before I hit the river for trout. Spooling up new line on many reels. Also am trimming Trout Magnets to use with my JDM jig heads. The only drawback to using those, other than cost, is they all have pretty short shanks and hard to get a TM on one straight unless you take off 1 or 2 sections of the TM head. Also ordering more Meiho boxes to be better organized. Told my wife today I need to be ready….LOL.

Worked on pouring my fist jig heads. 1/32 & 1/64 with #6 Owner hook, and 1/64 #8 hook.

Those look really good.

Good job. Well done

I respool line on the roadside or parking lot and dip squeaky reels in the water ….
Maintenance ain’t my thing ….just saying…..
Reels best be tough or they get hung on the garage wall in the reel graveyard
Rods best be tough too or they get given away to rod rebuild folks ….
Line best not break for no reason or it’s bird nest material in my truck bed ….
Jigs and such are in bunches all over the place…..
Rarely take time to do up any thing really nice…..
Because I will likely trash it and or thrash it next trip out is me ….

I have to do some maintenance myself although it ain’t my thing either
