BOMBER GEAR DRYTOP

My kokatat has served me well but it was time to replace it, I decided to go with the hydrobomb. I'm 5' 7" 200 pounds with a 43" chest, I've learned to order one size bigger on everything I order.   It's fits very well, I won't need to trim the neck gasket I'm looking forward to testing it out this sunday.  I wasn't looking to spend alot of money so at $188 on sale I figured I would give them a shot.   Only time will tell how well it's put together.   I got to test it and am pleased with my purchase, it fits great kept the water out.     http://www.bombergear.com/

Bass fishing on the rogue

About mid week a newer co worker named Allen asked if I wanted to go bass fishing.  I rarely pass up paddling if anything has to do with water, I decided it would be a good change up.   I hadn't fished for bass in 12 years and honestly never had to much luck.  Allen was pretty confident we would be catching plenty without any issues, he's been doing it for a long time and knows their routines very well.

So it was set we met up on sunday and headed to the rogue to put on the water and head down to his honey hole.  I won't mention the location we caught all the bass in, fishermen always want to keep their favorite spots a secret and I  can understand why after the afternoon we had.  I think he had his first fish on within 10 minutes it was a nice 2 1/2 pounder, the next was around 5 to 6 pounds.  He was nice enough to let me fight that one in.  It was pretty much non stop action for 4 to 4 1/2 hours, we did catch and release only.

Gopro rear mount

I designed the mount to break away near the base for safety, I also ran parachute cord around the  base of the camera through the tube to my grap loop so I wouldn't lose my camera.  I also added a bolt that goes throught the base and the tube to hold it all together.  I tried a rubber coupler mount, don't waster your time it doesn't hold  the camera very steady.  I have about $30 dollars invested in the setup.
