Ah, great post, I'll play.

Late 80's St. Joe River in Berrien Springs, Michigan, orange and white spin and glow and a spawn bag I tied up, my buddy Tony showed me how. A nice 9 lber give or take. Graduated to the rivers of northern Michigan, became a Jim Bedford disciple pitching metal, tried to memorize Jed Davis's book. Fished every damn river up in northern Michigan, before moving to Western WA a decade later, because the steelhead fishing is so great out here, right?

Ha! There's still some bright spots, but god you gotta weed through the chafe to find em sometimes,
