Rolo that is a sweet bladebait that I have never seen. Thanks for the pic. I think MOST times color doesn't matter to actively feeding fish. For me, color becomes a little more important when they remove the feed bag.

Search utube vids..all you need to know.

Don't wait until next year.

When will Ajay invite me up to spend a weekend with him when those big ol brownies are shallow in the spring? Or maybe when could I scrape enuff cash to fly out to Cali and fish with Tom for a week? Maybe spend a month south of the border to organize Rauls tackle shed. Or possibly see a stupid Lions game with Slonzep at Soldier field so I can boo the lions to my hearts content ( it's like i'm hangin' with al bundy!) Or visit / learn tacklemaking with Allen. The list goes on, but it's not about the fishes.

You look too young to retire, now get back to work! ?

I am toying with using old spinnerbaits for making bladed jigs to eliminate the poor oring connection. I have 3 different head shapes to play with and it appears that they will work. I'll try them out this weekend.

60 degree water for me. Bladed jig, 4" fluke on scrounger, and ned/trd/the deal. Probabally something different this weekend...?

I don't kayak, but I would think a 6'6" m might be a little easier to cast.

Don't use a microwave that you plan on using later for food.

I was thinking bladebait..not bladed jig. Was hoping for bladebait. ?

I am the same as most others..perch / bluegill / craw, but also like white, although no shad in my lakes. After killin' them on a friends bladed jig with a "firecraw" skirt and bluegill zipper trailer, I don't take colors too seriously these days...

I have been looking pretty hard at a Ranger 1680 (or 1682?), not a "family" boat, but has a lot of nice fishing features that are options on Lund or Crestliner, with a very competitive price.

I used regular old rust-oleum. Rolled it on with a 1/4"nap and "dry brushed" relatively smooth. Hey - it looks good from 20'...?

I don't see these doing well in the fishing world.

I don't have the patience to fish a ned any deeper than 8'. I use it for docks and shallow targets only. Too many better options for water deeper than that. (the opinion expressed is that of the author and does not necessarily coinside with anyone.)

We're not talking about Shannon twin-spins Raul...?

20 gl. bag...that's a big bag.

Your forearms are looking bigger these days.

I'll take them...?

A hug and a kiss works for me.

No, just curious what & how much....

6# XL.

So,what was the price for which reel are you guys talking about?

No wonder that bait shop out of business..look at that bait...?
