Because of my neck and back issues I gave up fishing. Should have before I did, but pushed my luck. And it cost me.
Didn't renew my license when they expired in March, and not renewing the trailers or boats registrations. Shouldn't have last December. Wasn't fishing much because of my condition before I did. But made 3 trips after registering everything again last year. One was very expensive after my shoulders, arms, and hands went numb from my neck damage messing with the nerves.
Did enjoy my jerkbait and swimbait fishing past few years before my body made me stop. Tried glide baits lots, with seldom any luck. But seeing huge followers made me try it every trip for a good amount of time. And if I would have changed the split rings on BPS ones, I would have had 2 good ones from them. But after replacing split rings no such luck.
Glad you'll are out enjoying it, and doing well.
