I have never caught many fish running yo yos but I have always enjoyed doin it. I went the other night with two good friends. It was one of theirs birthday and he wanted to go. I enjoy sitting around a fire more than anything but we run yo yos so we can tell our wives what we are doin lol. I am still using my pa pas yo yos and he passed away 21 years ago. Grand total for the night was one crappie one catfish and one white bass.
