I'm happy to buy firewood at the campground to prevent introducing invasive pests and spreading disease, but it drives me crazy when they sell shit firewood. This stuff has not cured enough

I would split my own wood at home if I could, but still wouldn't take it camping at a state park. So if they want to force me to give them more money in the sake of conservation, I just wish it was good firewood
 
Same deal here with our Provincial (think State) Parks. They want you to buy their wood to keep invasive species from coming in, but the shit is so green it won't burn. So what do people do, they bring wood that they know will burn, and who can blame them,camping should be fun and relaxing...
 
The provincial parks at least in Alberta suck hard next to the state ones I've been to.

What are you fishing for?
 
Obviously, nothing on the surf LOL, or that Ugly Stik would be at least 2 1/2 feet longer.
 
Well I have a couple 9' penn
surf casters and a shorter jigging rod and some short stubby Penns with cable line

My fly rods are that long as well both plueger


But I'm looking for freshwater tackle
I was thinking the Ugly Stick would be kind stiff a action which would be good for pike
But the Abu would be more versatile

My camp is in Franklin county NY
So mostly Bass, Pike and big ass perch
I'm not looking for a winch though
 
I should get my lazy butt to the store and feel them myself

My old rods are Shakespeare which are older than their ugly stick model but they need reels
I used to be an avid fisherman but somehow stopped
