What a neat night. I’ll never forget it. Started out kayak fishing the channels with my 6 year old and she got frustrated trying to cast where she wanted, so we practiced and practiced and worked on it and by the end of the night she had figured it out. And on her first good cast right in the correct spot she pulled in a 20 inch trout. She even assisted with the cleaning. The girl was ecstatic and loved it. I think she’s hooked.

Ribbonfish are a prized food fish in Japan, but have yet to be widely embraced by American eaters. The flesh is between flounder and sea trout – mild with a hint of briny, ocean flavor. The texture is delicate, with white, flaky meat.

Nice! Mine lived to surprise another trout fisher this time.
I'm going back "home" in a little over a week, we decided it's time to move our "stay at home" to our actual home now. I'm really going to miss it. We'll be back for July 4th week I think.

I just bought a couple of Daiwa Revros LT combos, and I can use some help spooling the line.
I got Trilene 8lb test and watched a video to spool it (my dad would be so disappointed in me, rest his soul), but after a couple of test casts, the line went below the reel and got tangled, so obviously I did something wrong.
Can anyone post a good video on spooling a line? TIA.

Most of the reasons for line issues are from worn parts.
