My Grandparents instilled the LOVE of fishing in ME! Especially Grandpa, Crappies were mainly fished in Springtime where we lived. Also we didn't even have any kind of motor, just an old wooden rowboat! Anchor rope had knots tied every couple of feet to mark depth. Used to catch some nice Jack perch using soft shell crabs and or perch bugs. Walleyes trolling homemade Feather flies, Northern Pike using mainly creek chubs. Our fiberglass rods and old baitcasters with many a backlash and Dacron line. First spinning reel was made in France, the famous Mitchell "300".

THOSE WERE THE DAYS MY FRIEND--- ahhhh you know the rest.
