The looong stretch is here

[Swartztastic]

This is the best time to check fishing equipment thoroughly and do any repairs. Remove any frayed line and restring as necessary. If you tie your own harnesses, check every one for nicked line and dull hooks and retie if necessary. If you don’t tie your own, now is a great time to learn how. YouTube is a great source of information. Netcraft has a store just off 475 at the Dussel exit that has a great selection of lure making materials along with much more. Good luck
