Light Tackle Talk - Wednesday on KI
Kent Island Light Tackle Discussion - Wednesday
If anyone's interested, I'll be leading a discussion this Wednesday evening at 7:00 PM at the Kent Island MSSA chapter meeting. I have a power point presentation and we'll be talking about light tackle techniques, current winter and projected spring patterns, lure optimization methods, new tackle reviews, and careful catch & release. You don't have to be a MSSA member to attend.
7:00 PM
American Legion Hall
800 Romancoke Rd.
Stevensville, MD 21666

Sounds great! Light tackle is all I use (being a freshwater weenie and all)....
Nothing like catching Rockfish on 8lb line.

Just wish it was not so damn far away, I would really like to hear what you have to say. Now don't forget to mention what "Rods" are best to use

Shawn, I heard that the Carroll County MSSA is trying to get you to talk that might be doable for me. By the way the WWD are frozen up so no fishing for me for a little while, it was good while it lasted....Your a wanted man Shawn everyone wants to know about your corn colored jig heads

Believe it or not - I used to be a LT junkie. Was after the IGFA 2lb test records years ago when that opened up. The first couple years - not many guys messed with the ultra light stuff. The record book was wide open. Slowly but surely - guys put some good fish in the book.
It was fun - but I got tired of 1 hour " fights " with mid sized fish , busting off fish , breaking rods , etc.
I still LTJ when it's right - but prefer 2-3 bigger fish then a bunch of mid sized ones.
The real thrill is 80lb gear - 40 lbs of drag. Big fish damn near pull you out of the chair as they tow the boat around. Once you mess with that - light gear just is not the same.
