I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

I stumbled across an erie darter video on Youtube today.  I don't know how to copy links, but the name of the video is "The best hand poured plastics in fishing".  The only reason I am posting this is because  I saw something that struck me as funny in this video.  It looked to me that the guy in the video was using a spinning rod upside down.  At 1:17 in the video, it gives a shot of the pole he is using (that sounds funny) and the guide closest to the reel looks like it's 3 inches high.  I thought it was funny, hope I'm right and I'm not the stupid one.  Check it out.

Some people were never taught and don't know any better, or a few just want to reel it the other way and don't know you can switch handles on some of them or get a left-handed reel. I see a lot of shore anglers who reel them upside down.

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

I really don't want to think about topic #2, but topic #1... at least he does it with a casting reel to slow down. If he did it with a spinning reel... I would point and laugh!
