>>987813I'm gonna pack my topwater rod tomorrow and a couple lures just in case. Sometimes it's surprising how early/late fish here in Maryland will hit topwater. Hell, this SP-7 got all it's scars from a single day of fishing in early October on Raystown Lake in PA. My best topwater time period is usually mid-to-late spring and late-summer into early fall. When things get real warm up here topwater will still work but I've gotta slow way down, plus grass mats become obnoxious and demand either frogs or punch rigs. If the fish are holding deep to stay out of the sun then it's almost like winter fishing. I'll go back to football jigs, jigging spoons, texas rigs and such.

berkley-fishing.com/Berkley-recycling.htmlMy memory was correct, and you can mail mono directly to their recycling center, though I'm fortunate enough to have parks around here where I can take it.
I don't save mono or fluoro but I do recycle mono. I still haven't found much info about recycling fluoro around here.
I usually razor it to shreds once its on the bottle before I toss it in the garbage can. Just trying to keep birds and other critters from getting tangled in it. For braid I'll run it at least two seasons before disposal. I use another setup kind of like a reel-to-reel movie projector with a couple empty spools and the cordless drill so I can take off the line, reverse it, then spool it back on the reel. Works wonders.
