New Products Make the Fishing Even Better
I found lots of great new products I know you are going to like at the recent ICAST tackle show. Plano's new fly fishing boxes-the 3282, 3283 and the 3284 models-are perfect for storing, organizing and transporting flies. Made from sturdy EVA foam with large non-corrosive zippers, these floating (you'll appreciate this feature if you've ever dropped your fly box in a stream!) boxes are lightweight and virtually indestructible.The interiors of these new Plano boxes feature a high quality foam in both the lid and the base to double the fly storage capacity. The small-sized 3282 box measures 5.5"L x 3.25"W x 2"H; the medium-sized 3283 measures 7"L x 5"W x 2"H; and the large 3284 model measures 8.5"L x 6"W x 2"H. The boxes cost $7.99, $8.99 and $9.99 each. If you've ever broken one of your expensive rods and reels while traveling from one lake to another, you're really going to appreciate Plano's great new 1415 Z Series rod and reel case.
Excellent Bass Fishing, Trout Fishing and some Walleye Fishing on ...
The "Grand River Rafting Company" offers guided drift boat fishing on platformed rafts down the Grand River in Paris, Ontario. Fishermen will find abundant smallmouth bass, fall/spring rainbow trout… as well as pike, walleye and big carp. All trips are very reasonably priced. A five hour guided fishing trip for two with lunch is $200 total with a platform raft. Drift boat rafting is the most satisfying experience for fishing the Grand & Nith Rivers. Two fishermen can stand on the platforms and do trout fly fishing or fly fishing for bass with lots of space. Or for those that bait cast, they can sit in deck chairs elevated above the water level to easily see striking fish. The best thing about raft platform fishing is that the speed of the raft allows excellent casting opportunities at each fishing pool.
Fishing the Carson River
Every fisherman will tell you that they have a special trick that works for them. We got up early this morning and met Johnson Lane resident David Small just north of Broken Dam to do a little fishing. David says his trick is a 4-pound test line with a Panther Martin lure that has a gold flasher. He worked with my daughter Jenee and showed her how to cast out and then immediately start reeling the lure back in. If you cast upstream, you reel in kind of fast. If you cast downstream you let the river provide the action and you reel in slower. What a wonderful fishing trip this was. My daughter caught and released three fish. I lost count after David caught and released 15. All the fish they caught were much too little for dinner.
We were fishing with several other fishermen today.
