Wheres a good spot within walking distance of my house...? I live by the corner of lower river and lincoln. I know the area about 1/2 mile above the ped. bridge is good with waders. I think right now its all wader fishing by the ped. bridge.

You guys should hook some fish up there this weekend, If John let's you guys hook any.
Wonder where "Toybox" came from?
I now have a couple of rods set up to play with the toys.
I even put some of that gay line on my reels? What am I thinking?
I was born at night, but it wasn't last night. Reeltech and Klamathsteel have me sold. Toys-R-Us.
Don't think I will hang up my Rogue sidedrifters just yet though.
I have next week off to explore the Middle river. I am thinking it's now or never.

Re: Where's the chrome?
George.....I am glad you are now in the toybox with us. Yes, you are the originator of the term "TOY BOX", and we all knew if would be a matter of time before you jumped in. It certainly does not take the place of everything else, but as you have seen, they have their time and place.
By embracing the "toys", you have added another tool to your toolbox, another club to your golf bag, another reason to pull out the fish bat, another line filled out on your hatchery tag, another reason to buy another rod and reel (or 2
), another reason to embrace braided line, a reason to use a bobber stop, a way to clean up behind the 15 boats that just sidedrifted the hole in front of you, the enjoyment of seeing a confused face on the guy who just asked you what you just caught that nice fish on.............and above all else George.........a reason to get a tackle box bigger than your tiny little canvas bag:D
WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO.
Pretty soon you will have a tackle bag as heavy as mine
.........OK maybe not
