My Son just did that, got a Hobie and rigged it out. As for me I'm about to order a solo canoe, the current one I have is getting too heavy for these old bones, and a new shotgun to put more than fish on the table for when the recession arrives. And thanks to SCOTUS, my cc permit is in the works.troutfishing4life wrote: ↑Mon Jul 18, 2022 4:36 pmNext purchase will be in the next month or so I will get a kayak.

Let us know how quickly your CC is issued. I am holding off, but mainly because I seldom see trout big enough to be concerned for my life while out of the house working. When I do, I'll be packing some serious heat46er wrote: ↑Thu Jul 21, 2022 8:47 amMy Son just did that, got a Hobie and rigged it out.

It's not protection from trout I am concerned aboutRusty Spinner wrote: ↑Thu Jul 21, 2022 1:19 pm

I live in a small town and wait times are about 2-3 weeks once the application is submitted to the PD, should have it around the 1st of the month. By law they have 60 days, but we know how unmotivated some towns are. Hopefully reciprocity will expand.I was kidding about the trout attacking me. Truth is, I would 100% have carried when I worked in some places like the Chicago, Philly, St. Louis, etc. areas back in my corrugated box sales days. Now, I am very seldom in those places if ever, and I don't fear being anywhere else that I frequent. If I had my CC permit and it was portable (which it isn't for NJ), I would have carried the one night I took the wife and daughter to NYC for dinner and a Broadway show earlier this year. That would have been the only time I would like to have been able to carry concealed. But I have lots of friends that are planning to or are obtaining their permit to carry as they need to travel to places where you can't always rely on police to protect you.46er wrote: ↑Thu Jul 21, 2022 1:34 pmIt's not protection from trout I am concerned aboutRusty Spinner wrote: ↑Thu Jul 21, 2022 1:19 pm

awesome....cappy wrote: ↑Sun Jul 31, 2022 10:04 amFound the reel I was looking for to match up with the rod. Wanted to keep the rig American made and Orvis. Got lucky and found a 4/5 Orvis Madison with a rare spare spool, and suede Orvis reel case at an amazing price. Christened the rod this morning with a decent brown in the first run. Water was 61 degrees, wrapped it up after trying for another 30 minutes with no more takers, however very happy as mission accomplished.
