So as of late I have had to work my *** off to catch mr. Stripey.
They seemed to be really timid last few weeks...
Early morning fishing new years day before sunup led to my first triple trout being used.....and iced up guides.I hurled it out a few times to admire its swim and on the third cast my pole was amazingly light followed by the worst birds nest ive ever seen...I looked out in time to see it wave at me before it hit the water. Dammit.
Any tricks to keeping ice off the guides?
