If you're poaching enough 8" cutts to make a meal with, you gotta have something to reel'em in REALLY quickly.
I don't know how you kept your cool about the poaching thing. I think I'd have lost my shit.
If you're poaching enough 8" cutts to make a meal with, you gotta have something to reel'em in REALLY quickly.....but $600 rainbow colored reels?
I know I would have. As for the reel, first time I ever herd of one was yesterday in the classified forum.I don't know how you kept your cool about the poaching thing. I think I'd have lost my shit.
Ahahahah. You just made my day.Cheeky= hipster garbage. It should be legal to kick anyone you see using one straight in the nuts.
the price is a bit steep ,but i understand they come with a gold spandex fishing thong as a special bonus.Was it this 10-12 weight reel ? @ 4.75" ....recommended for 10 to 12 weight .....just a tad overkill for a 8" trout.

No phone. Encounter a dumbass poacher. What to do?
That's a tough one. If you've hiked in, you can't get a plate. I guess I'd have to settle for making him release the dead fish. Tell him your going to give his description to the F&G. Hope I've made him think about checking the regs next time.
I know I'm Monday morning quarterbacking you. It's easy to sit here on my ass and tell you what you should have done. I was just trying to think of what I'd do.
Of course I'm sure someone will pipe in with a "internet tough guy" response. Like "I would have shoved that dumb reel up his ass!"
