Not as of yet. I just got done building a St. Croix Avid 9' 6wt that I plan on using for bass and maybe an occasional carp.
I'm new to fly fishing, so it should be interesting to say the least <!--graemlin::D--> <!--graemlin::cool:-->

The word "beginner" says it all, I voted for Tips and Tricks with Lures.
Maybe I can get some use out of my new lure collection <!--graemlin::)-->

aahhhhh grasshopper, i mean cricket, welcome to fishing clubs bb.. we all are beginners to something at one time or another.

let us know what you like to do and what you would like to try. we have a lot of young people here that are wanting to know things and we have people here that can help with any questions you might have.

you might find us acting crazy every now and then [some more than others] but we are here to have fun and to see what we can do to either learn or help each other out.

Greetings to you both, pleasure to meet you.

There's nothing wrong with being crazy sometimes, I've been known for that a time or two. <!--graemlin::)-->

Unfortunately, this year I have not been fishing all too often. The dreaded word work, drowns some free time. I was in Spirit lake, IA in the beginning of this month, I figured no better time to learn then to buy a bunch of things I've never used and make them work. So on my way back to Illinois, I ended up in Berkley's fishing store (since I couldn't tour the "Pure fishing" factory across the street <!--graemlin::D-->), picked up some beetle spins, jig head hooks, small bladedancers, a shallow frenzy diver, a few poppers, and plastic worm bait.

This will add to my little collection of plastic lures, bobbers, steel leaders, swivels and the handy pliers and pocket knife in my tackle box.

I can't really say what I like to fish for, right now its more like anything I can catch. In the last year or two I have caught my share of small pan fish, bluegill, perch, catfish...oh catfish...thats my most popular catch with a leech.

hrm....now well.. besides my life story, I can be chatty on a subject I like.

i would like to see more pages, that last issue was sorta thin <!--graemlin::cool:-->

Originally posted by: BigDog68 on 10/22/2007 6:44:35 PM

I want to see another page in the members section dedicated to the bulletin board stuff and all of the different events that members around the country are putting on that promotes the club. Anytime we put together a "Fishing Meet", we give them free advertising and promotion. So, for all we do, we would like a page that covers members meets and our local fishing reports, tips and more.... <!--graemlin::cool:-->
