Not often That East Coast of North Carolina Boat Ramps are Covered With Snow and Ice……1/22/2025
"I never would have guess that. When I think of south I think warm air and sunshine."
Do you love big bluegill?
20 minute blast
Caught these 3 and one I couldn't even turn I'm thinking it was one of my hybrid strippers on the 2wt this evening on my Dragon fly nymph.This one was a 10 hen the 1st fish 1st cast.
This was a 7" yellow perch on the dragon fly nymph.
Another small gill. Was out for about 20 minutes and 5 minute of that I had to go back to the house and get the camera.

I believe I missed it when you posted them before. Could you do a few more pics and offer some details of construction?

As you wish but still working on the pattern.

Must have been fun on the 2 wt. Dick , good for you buddy.........

It was I can't deny it a blast I'm really lovin the 2 wt. I know it's not got the backbone for some of the other fish that are lurking but the others are lots of fun and I do love the flex and bend they put in the rod.

Don't know Dick. Greghopper and others managed to land pretty hefty looking beasts on a 2wt. I'm a brute when it comes to delicate things, so, I probably break it without knowing it's a toothpick.

All I can say is so far I've had 3 hybrid strippers on the first one took all my backer of and broke off the 2nd broke off at about 50' out I think I kept the tension a little bit to tight and the 3rd was a good run and the hook came out. So I'm not doing very good on the stripper department but still trying.

WOW! How much backing did you have? I loaded mine up with close to 180yd of backing, plus the 33yd of WF. 7lbs carp nearly stripped all of my backing.

apparently not enough backing.
-
-
plus they are more experienced than I but it's all fun I just love the flex and bend in the rod and want to be careful not to overbend but i guess with my lightweight tippet I should be OK anyway.
