I recently purchased a new 7ft Fenwick HMX rod that will mainly be used for Lindy rigs. However, its seems as though the line sags a little between the guides and sometimes results in tangles around the rod tip in some situations. Anyone out there have the same type of problem as this? What can a guy do to prevent this if it can be prevented at all?
Finally warm weather has arrived in Minnesota and I decided to hit the river for the first trip of the year in the Kayak. Felt good to be on open water after a very long winter. Even managed a few rough fish to get warmed up for the year!

Spending some time in the turkey blind as it’s on solid ground. Had some jakes behind me but they don’t want to play. It’s okay as the have a free pass for now. In a couple weeks they will not have a free pass. If they would have come out I would have taken some photos. Lots for noise as everything is excited by the warm weather.
Sure. The good thing is if you have too many cocktails and fall off the dock you will not have to worry about drowning. People are going to have a long walk to go swimming out of the Waskish beach. Hard to believe that 3 years ago the dock floated up off the support poles so we had to put in a few longer ones. The dock was right up to the predator guard below the wood duck houses.
Here are a few photos taken off of my dock which is straight across the Pike River from the Hatchery.
Only a day or two more before it opens up here on the river!
The second picture is looking toward the dam.
