    Oh God, be careful. I was at the little section that Royal Carribean owns, and the Haitian flea market owners there are pretty aggressive.

    How lucky some girl will be. All my girlfriends have hated when I go fishing. And I think the first fish is a cuttbow.

    I started with the Randall Kaufman kit from Cabelas. The stuff was very good and it taught me the basics very well. I still use that vise because it holds a hook very well and I like the simplicity.

    Oil Creek?

    Any of you PA guys fished the delayed harvest section of Oil Creek yet? I'd usually have been up a few times by now but a couple streams close to home are still producing.

    I'll back up that gratitude. As a 17-year old getting ready for college, I can't imagine the courage it took to make that sacrifice. Thanks for keeping our country free.

    I generally use a leader the length of the depth I'm fishing, then just look at the end of the line as a strike indicator. If it's too deep or fast to do that, I just tie on a couple strands of yarn.

    I like to incorporate red into all of my streamers. Red eyes are great for streamers--they imitate baitfish, and young smallmouth and rock bass.
