Hand to Fin Combat

I went trout fishing last night and broke yet another fishing rod. This is getting ridiculous. Thing is, I've got a rod blank on order to build myself a version of the "ultimate" trout stick. At the rate I've been going...it is doomed to certain breakage. The two rods I have already broken in combat with trout were just temps to get me through until the blank arrives. We are not talking about a $40 store bought rod breaking next time, but about a $250 magic wand, that I will have invested about 20 hours into crafting.

I've GOT to be more careful.

BTW: I caught my best Brookie of the year last night, a 16" beauty.
