Tony, my condolences. Last year I bought a fly fishing combo from Cabelas; about $100.00. When I got home I put the 2 pieces together and promptly broke the tip off. It's still sitting in the corner of my garage. I need to toss it but...

One point of possible interest is that none of the smaller, 6 to 7 inch, fish I caught show the yellowish coloration.

I'm going to see if I can catch some more of those big yellow guys/girls and will post another pic. About time that I learned how to post pics anyway. Stay tuned.

My goal has always been to return fish to the water ASAP. Eating them would be like cannibalizing one of the Grandkids.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
