Beard Headed Walleye
Like most angling days it started at O’Dark Thirty. It was cold…very
cold. I had dressed for the weather but what I pictured in my head was warmer. I
met JC1Crappies and Redhook62 both DuPageAngler.com members. We all sported
floats and crawlers for the lion’s share of bites. We caught a mess of small
fall walleyes, a couple bass, and red caught one very nice white bass before
the sun was even out!
The cool thing about today, it was our first day field
testing BeardHead.com products!!!
The hats themselves are very good quality and did the job of
keeping our heads and ears warm while fishing. Just look at these things!!!!
They rock!!! On their site they have a wicked selection of BeardHeads. When I
first got mine, the kids and I ran around the house with them on. These are
perfect for fisherman. Why? Well besides the whole fishing in the elements
thing, there is the fact that these are a guys guy thing. Besides the Oxy Clean
Guy (God rest his soul) and DA Member Wilks what guy does not dream to sport a
full blown in your face beard? Also, do you know why there is a “Talk Like A Pirate”
day? Because guys like it!! I mean I always wanted to be a Viking! We, as
fisherman, are out there many times to hang out with our friends, have some
laughs, catch some fish and these BeardHeads help us do that.
My head was the only part of me that was toasty. My fingers
and toes were shot. Once they get that cold, even hand warmers don’t help any
more. Bad part about a constant bite is all the baiting hooks and getting the
ice off your guides.
