I am retired from the securities industries since 2004. I lived all my life in th SF Bay Area, so I fished the local lakes, bay, ocean, rivers, and the lake and streams in the Sierras. I have been fishing over 60 years, and mostly fish the local lakes now.
In all my years of fishing, I have never owned or used a spincast reel. Skip Smith sent me my first Johnson 100b the month. I took it out and he has me hooked. Here to learn more about Johnson reels.
I find this site very frustrating to use. It is not user friendly. I use my iPhone 99% of the time and could not access this site. Used my iPad and finally got in after many tries. Now my iPhone sometimes work on this site. I tried writing an introduction earlier, but it disappeared before posting.
