LCI WEEK HAS ARRIVED!!!

Well by this time on Friday I will be on the road and making the trip north for the LCI Fathers Day Derby. It really came up quick on us. Seems like yesterday we were mentioning how it was a month  away.  Anyway last night Jessica and I went and did a little fishing in the rain. I had bought a new bait caster last week and was eager to try it out. I bought the Abu Garcia Revo , rod and reel combo. I really liked the looks of the setup . White reel with white pole. I fished with it for about 1/2 hour just to see if I was going to like it. I must say it is probably the best reel I have ever bought. The pole is a little more flexible then I am used too I normally like the stiff rods with not much flexibility. This rod is more of a medium action. Will take time getting used to it for sure but overall I am very happy with the purchase. This was also a chance for Jessica to get used to a open face reel.  Prior to being in a relationship with me, Jessica was very much a girly girl. She still is high maintenance, but she is getting better. She really has fell in love with fishing. I'm hoping she will work hard and move up to a bait caster . She has always fished with worms only and never used lures. I am complete opposite, I never fish with worms and only use lures. So I bought her some worms and set her pole up and let her go to town. She hammered the bluegill. She had a lot of fun and it made me happy to see that she was enjoying herself. I love making memories with her. By the end of the LCI she will be a pro.. She truly is a trooper, wanted to go fishing even though it was pouring. Nothing bothers her!!
