About this time last year I walked up to the self checkout at Walmart, it have over $250 due on the register. I told the closest employee the guy with 5 kids just went out the door, he didn't even attempt to stop him.
Don't do much trout fishing, however I've probably used more 8lb test over the years than any other size. Even had a partner that use it flipping jigs in Florida. Thrown a ton of cranks even in Truman and got them out of trees etc.
Last week bluegill were being harassed behind the docks where the boat is parked. Then Monday I saw about a 4 pound bass cruising the edge, in the back of Big Bay.
