I was able to get out today to hit a local bass lake. Hit several nice bass and a few decent blue gill to boot.

Then I got stupid. Real stupid. Was fishing my 7 wt in the thick pads and got hung up. Instead of pointing the rod at the fly and pulling on the line I rear back on the rod and CRACK there goes the but section. Broke it in two places. Thank god for lifetime "I'm a dumba## warranties. The rod is already on the way back to St. Croix for a new blank. Then I'll have to put it all back together again.
