NKD - CLA Magnacut / OD G10

Added an auto CLA to the family in Magnacut with OD G10 scales. It's new I know...but might be my favorite. Feels amazing in the hand and incredibly solid

Megabass Whippet - my new favorite bass rod

This rod is so much fun with smaller hard baits. Had some nice results on a quick afternoon session using an X-80 jr. For a 6'6" F2 power rod it has some impressive action. Paired mine with a Vanford 2500 using 8lb J-Braid Grand and 8lb Seaguar Blue Label FC leader

Putting the Kirisame Ultimate to work!

By far the most fun rod I own. Incredible sensitivity with surprising power when you need it. Using Ironfeather PE 0.4 with 4lb Seaguar Blue. Absolutely dominating the trout with little X-raps today

Mini Heavy Duty Trout Killers

Haven't posted in a while but made some new heavy duty mini spinners as I'm in the middle of spring trout season. Been absolutely dominating with these pink and gold. Using a more stout stainless shaft at 0.030", hand looped with solid brass beads and clear pink accent bead. Dressed with a durable pink Krystal Flash and bonded to a size 10 BKK Spear treble. I made these on the smaller side with a size 0 hammered gold French blade. These are nearly indestructible and weigh in just a touch under 1/16oz

Indoor Rod Storage - Apartment Dwellers

Pretty impressed with this rod rack kit I got off Amazon for under 10 bucks. Fills the dead space next to my home office desk nicely too! Thought I'd share it along

Smokeless Smoked Trout

Hey all - if you're like me and love trout fishing and enjoying smoked trout, but live in an apartment / condo, this recipe (pic #4) is absolutely delicious. I had to share since I just tried it for the first time with a few small stockers I caught yesterday and I'm shocked how well it worked. I followed this recipe exactly as it was written. Credit to the Utah Wildlife Forum where someone posted it.

Morning UL Session & Dinner for later!

Caught about 15 or so this morning on the homemade spinners and kept 3 for a nice meal tonight! I definitely grocery shop less during trout season.

Rod consolidation to 3 Megabass Destroyers

My final rod addition for my consolidation effort going from 12 rods down to 3. These will cover all the freshwater fishing I do from perch to trout to bass. Really loving all 3 and will use them heavily instead of multiple rods collecting dust. Added the Addermine after trading some gear with the Rod Locker. Overall great experience working with them!

Kirisame Ultimate w/ Vanford C2000HG, Ironfeather 5lb braid. Perch, crappie, small trout.

Whippet w/Vanford 2500HG, J-Braid Grand 8lb. Larger trout & local lake shore fishing rod.

Addermine w/Vanford C3000XG, J-Braid Grand 10lb. Dropshot, ned rig, small hard bait for all bass at the lake

I love Benchmade and love fishing. This Mini Adira seems like it's going to be a great fit! Excited to clean my first trout with it. Man does Benchmade make you feel special with their packaging!

Excited I finally received the last brass part I was waiting for from Flytanium. Here's my complete Bugout with Green Canvas Micarta scales, brass backspacer, steel & brass axis lock bar, and brass thumb stud. Gave me a chance to take it apart and freshly clean her up!
