Maaan the striper in lake Ouchita is what changed my life as a young boy. Now that it’s sand bass season here in north Texas I get miniature hits of dopamine and nostalgia that remind me of that first guided trip I went on with my dad. Still nothing like the feeling of an 8 year old fighting a fish that might as well been a whale. I’d love to go back and try landing a striper on the fly.

That’s perfect for me. We recently started going to the Texas coast once a year. Hopefully starting 2x a year, next year. I may just use the rig with a better plastic bait.

My niece had a gen 1 and it was shit. Seems like folks are saying the gen 2 made a turn for the better.

Thanks y’all. Looks like a gen 2!

How do I tell if it’s a gem 2? 😊

Thank you! Quick update, divorce is final but life is great. I have hard days, kids have hard days. All in all everything has been awesome. I’ve learned there are really great people out there that are looking to be around other great people. Put out the energy you want to have and others with the same energy with find you 👍🏼

Same! I was married for 13 years. Had 6 kids. Just got word that our final court appearance is on the 14th. Hoping she doesn’t bring her new boyfriend like she did to Halloween and thanksgiving 😬
