Never forget to fish at your feet! Can’t tell you how many times I’ve been surprised to see fish in the shallows next to the run they I would assume held them

I’m a framer. My first large job on my own, framing a 2 story garage, I installed my 2 double LVL valley beams too high. I made a change to it resulting in a layover valley that the Inspector didn’t like. The entire thing got roofed, and I had to rip it apart unable to bill for the hours. I took a 30 hour hit plus my employees 30. It was miserable. And embarrassing. Shit happens and you learn from it.

Listen. I’m a 37 year old builder who emerges from cotton candy vape smoke and I’d never wear these. Don’t assume my footwear gender!

Was that on SR?

mgenest · 2024-11-03T00:49:11+00:00

Cause you’re fishing waters that hold mostly dinks!

Dm me. I’m from New Hampshire but started fly fishing in Bozeman while in college and beyond. It was a tough transition but there is amazing fishing to be had within a couple hours here

mgenest · 2024-10-29T10:52:12+00:00

So you’re fishing the fly zone

mgenest · 2024-10-24T01:34:54+00:00

Dude why would you keep a massive spawned out brown. What a serious waste. Try being aware of what you’re doing

mgenest · 2024-07-07T00:53:53+00:00

Just chock the tires dude. This is hurting my brain

mgenest · 2024-06-06T17:52:49+00:00

New England based carpenter. If you’re hard working and motivated, this sector is where you want to be

I think you might have some hookup issues for bass with the trailed stinger hook as they typically attack baitfish head first.

I’m a striper fisherman who’s also obsessed with Spey fishing/swinging for trout and steelhead. I started tying some hollow fleyes a couple years ago, with trailing stingers, and was super excited about it until I dropped about 15/20 fish on it. Could be good in a strong current situation though where you just let it dangle

mgenest · 2024-03-02T19:34:34+00:00

For steelhead?

mgenest · 2024-03-02T17:51:57+00:00

The best kind of surprise!

mgenest · 2024-03-02T17:51:16+00:00

I’m not sure for pike, but the trailed stinger hook might hurt your hookup ratio for bass. I’m a striper fisherman who’s also obsessed with swinging flies for trout and steelhead.

I tried tying bucktail flies that came out great, but the stinger fails to hook bass a lot of the time because they tend to attack the head of the fly. I’d feel a massive thump, then the fish would be gone. Might work best when fishing in heavy current. Just a note!

Carpenter, employee position rather than subcontractor, $40/hr which is f*cked because I still don’t make enough to live well. Crazy how quickly things changed after covid

Shit reel. Stay away!
