Re: [VFB] Hurricane Isaac
I have a hook stone and I have meant to put in my vest. Will have to do that now. My son and two friends will be here till tomorrow. Hope to fish today. I was tying at Cabala's yesterday and they took the boat out while I was gone. They had a good day with 33 trout caught between them.

The main thing was for them to catch fish, right? You accomplished that. Sometimes the guide doesn't need to catch any.

RE: [VFB] Hurricane Isaac
I’ve got a flat stone w/ a V cut into it a rod, also w/ a V. The rod fits into a small holster, the V helps to keep the hook aligned, especially small ones even w/ a chisel point you can do all four edges two @ a time.
