Yes, but not to the extent most think. If I'm reading between the lines correctly, it sounds like the reduced catching is due as much to the pre spawn being over and the summer routine settling in as much as fishing pressure.

LOL. A (drunk) Navy buddy of mine inadvertently transliterated in a Valparaiso bar once, being a native speaker, I tried to warn him, but he didn't listen...

I'm always leaning to gold over nickel, but in clear water with more sun than clouds, I break out the silver, specially when imitating shad. A tandem with a gold Colorado and nickel willow or vise versa depending on the conditions are good too.

LOL. I'm considering changing my screen name to Demasiado Hilo...

What comes AFTER speechless?...

No.

A while back I landed in an airport in Peru with one of those, and pointed it like a bazooka, La Policia Nacional was not amused. I had Thule rails on my old Cherokee, and would bungee two of them on the roof while traveling up and down the east coast, ah to be young again.

PVC tubes and pool noodles.

If you could book mark this, I'd be happy to show you the error of your ways in January... I refuse to take some intermediate tennis students, cause undoing the hitches would be next to impossible.

Something about fishing a long flaxen fly on a gravel brook in a reduced current, but I just don't have the heart. Hoping for a good outcome.

I'm throwing big ploppers with heavy mono on them, in addition to other larger lures.

Same, MD went to the 365 day thing, and I didn't get mine until June in 2000 cause I was out of town for an extended time. Now I have to renew every June, I also have to stop the gas pump on a zero...

The thud a lipless makes on roto molded polyethylene is music to my ears...

No.

Why limit to 3 lures?, a 3600 box and a couple of bags of plastics can travel pretty much anywhere.

Yes, I'm thinking of bringing a cup full of pencils out on the water...

Yes, but with the caveat of "all other things being equal".

Higher IPT and better handling with larger line.

Top water: Berkley BG (except frogs) Shallow cranks: Berkley BG Small : Berkley BG Flukes: Berkley BG Jerkbaits: Berkley BG Light shaky heads: Berkley BG Light Texas rig: Berkley BG Senkos: Berkley BG Mini wire baits: Berkley BG Tiny jigs: Berkley BG Little swimbaits: Berkley BG Liplesses?

It's a tie between a Jigging Master and a Daiwa Saltiga.

Bass fishing guys overthinking fishing? I don't believe that for a minute.... Yeah but bonefish are near the top of fight to weight ratio, and LMB, well, let's just say not so much. We used to fish bonefish in the Yucatan with shrimp and locked drags with 20 lb mono just for S&Gs when we got bored, the trick is to let them get a head of steam, and then lift the tip high, they will go airborne, and then you can flick them in the boat.

Bait Monkey says get some of the beat up ones in the picture, and the little girl rubber bands belong in the wacky box...

So you want a rectangular box for a single layer of baits not stacked? If so, I would just get with a tackle retailer, and have them save you the bulk pack containers they come in, essentially small cardboard boxes that fit 3-12 baits or so exactly, that and a sharpie would work best for not just storage, but the ability to access them quickly and efficiently. But hey, maybe you want to display them like a baseball.

I use a silent crank when the fish show a preference for them. I use a crank with rattles when the fish show a preference for them. Darn, I could have cut and pasted...
