North Country Angling - spin gear

The heatwave over the last couple of weeks, combined with the lack of rain, has put stress on our cold-water resources and the fish that inhabit those waters. Trout fishing has been put on hold until the weather breaks and cooler waters prevail.

For the diehard trout angler, it is a difficult pill to swallow. Leave it to a younger angler to devise a solution. Grandsons still have that purity of just needing a tug on the line to make it a good day fishing.
