Could someone let a technological idiot like myself in on how you post videos from your phone?
Copy the video's URL link. In the reply option where all the formatting options are (bold, italics, etc) there should be a film symbol. Click that, paste your link, and you are good to go
You need to upload it to YouTube first and then link to it.
This is the only kind of fishing I've done since grade school:

Ava D gets around lol
What river in VA? I've been fly fishing on the Rockfish river and the Tye in Nelson county and haven't caught anything over 14". I did guides in Banner Elk and Boone during college and getting ready to go back this weekend for delayed harvest.

That's cool stuff, I've been around Boone a couple of times in the south fork of the new. I remember we did really good up there, I also remember closing a new rod up in the tailgate of my Tacoma that day. The first time and last time I used it was that day. The brown in the picture was caught in the Smith River. Here's another decent brown from the same place.
Damn! I used to shore fish in a canal in FL that bordered a nature preserve/gator sanctuary. Enough had escaped over the years that the canal was full of them. I'd have never fished there except for the fact that the bank was 4'+, and very vertical, from the water. More than one of my spinnerbaits disappeared to the gators.

I'm all about some fishing. Catching on the other hand, I ain't too good at. I've always wondered what lake/stream fish do you keep and which ones do you eat?
Before Freeman park raised its fees and required reserved camping spots, me and some friends camped over the weekend on the beach. After attempting to catch something during the heat of the day with no luck, we decided to try out night fishing. One of the guys who was new to fishing got impatient and left his pole in the sand stake by the water. We were all sitting around the fire when we noticed the pole and sand stake had fallen over. He quickly reeled in the line and found a 16 inch fish on the end. Since we weren't watching the lines we don't know how long the fish was on there. I couldn't really identify the fish because A) I was too drunk and 2) it was gutted and on the fire within 31 seconds of having the hook removed. The fish tasted awesome and all of us were inspired to fish more but never caught anything else.

Almost done with the Sea Ox. New floor is in, fresh bottom paint. Just cleaning up the console and a few odds and ends and she'll be ready to go.

Got to spend the day Saturday trolling for walleye with a good friend of mine on Philpott reservoir in Va. Got totally skunked, I mean nothing. Still good to get out.
FYI...SC used to issue annual fishing licenses based on a fixed 12 month cycle (maybe July to July?). I'm not sure when it changed, but it's now 12 months from date of purchase. Finally! I figure I'll fish SC a lot more now; the old way is why I stopped going there in the first place.
