First post and I'm checking in. Hailing out of S Central WI. On the Madison area lakes, lake wisconsin.
15 years or so back I ended up in the Big Brothers program. Did a lot of fishing for the next 3 years of so with my Big Brother in a little 14 ft open alumacraft. He really must have known his stuff because we always ended up cleaning fish till midnight [sly]
Got 3 good years of fishing in and then my family moved away. It's probably been 10-12 years since I picked up a pole. Fishing from the shore just wasn't the same for me. Ended up loosing interest in it.
So after not fishing for a decade I went out and bought myself a little boat. LoL. Now I haven't seen my tackle box in at least 3 years and I'll be lucky if I remember a fraction of what he taught me. Even so, I'd like to get back out on the water finally and do some fishing again!

Welcome to BFT! I know when i first found this sight i had a hard time navigating it initially due to it's size and the amount of information available.
I have spent many hours reading tons of good stuff... I'm guessing here, but i picked up many years worth of "experience" just by reading and then goin out and applying what i read...Great stuff!

I will be running a inland trout fishing contest starting June 1st to June 30th. Pop in on the board and look it over. I am hoping to get some stuff from BFT to give as prises. I do have two sets of 12 hand tied files in a plastic box, from my own shop. They are a $25.00 value. I will be giving them as prizes.
