That would be tying; I never stopped fishing. I lived in CO and did a lot of fly fishing many years ago and tied a lot of my own flies. I switched over to almost exclusively spin fishing when I moved here. I still fly fish every now and then but not enough to go through very many flies. I have always enjoyed catching panfish and now I am targeting them more blatantly (I used to mostly bass fish but downsize when it was slow). Mostly lakes and rivers in the Piedmont and coastal plain of NC, with an occasional day or few at the coast. I fish out of a kayak primarily.
Anyway, I stumbled into the world of the tiny jig when I went poking around for info on catching more and larger panfish. I am setting a goal of getting a master angler patch from the state:

Which means certificate size fish of 6 different species. If you browse the list, there are about a dozen different panfish on it.
