This year I've probably only lost a couple jigs. Most of the time I can get them back.

Hey Cliff, Sounds like some good fishing.

This is what was my first thought.

I fish pretty much year round. The only breaks I take are for hunting and sometimes do both in the same day.

When I build them I always epoxy the weedgaurd in first. Then tie/band. If you want them separated more try and put the hook in the middle of skirt. You might have to pull them side to side for separation.

Set your drag accordingly but no issues with the line.

If that maxes out the depth of the lake, it might not have a thermocline. Mermet springs is a dive facility. This will give you an idea of the drastic change once you hit a thermocline. Surface: 86°F | 15' - 25' Visibility 15 Foot: 82°F | 15' - 25' Visibility 20 Foot Platform: 81°F | 15' - 25' Visibility 45 Foot: 55°F | 20' - 30' Visibility 55 Foot (Thermocline): 51°F | 25' - 40' Visibility 85 Foot Platform: 42°F | 25'+ Visibility Bottom: 42°F | 30'+ Visibility

Great catch!

Nice fish!!!

LOL, Been there done that.

Great fish as always Big O.

Wow! Very nice bass! Congrats.

I've always had the curl follow the bend of the hook.

That is a nice crappie.

Wow. Nice catch!

Congratulations Bass_Fanatic!!! You are the Winner of 6 Blind Dates!!! I want to thank everyone for their submissions. One Eyed Julie and I have picked the winner along with you all also. We are going with Blind Date. So if any of you are bored, you can now go to my website and mail order a Blind Date. A dozen if need be.

It actually works out really nice. The bull pup design keeps the over all length really short with a full length barrel. Its lighter or just better balanced imo.

It is. LOL

I do a little bit here and there. Last year I used a FS2000 by FN.

You sir, are going to get me in trouble. LOL There are some great names up here and a few that I really like. I can see this is going to be a hard choice. Keep them coming. I'm going to let this go until Friday evening. Then I'll pick one or let One Eyed Julie pick one for a tie breaker.

Nice catching!

I need a new name for my "Widegap" jig head. I will be adding a regular round bend hook to it like the Elite Swim Series, but without eyes for another option. I want to have some fun with this so I will be giving out 6 jigs in various colors and weights in this series to who comes up with the new name. Here is a picture of the head.

I bought some clamps from lowes. They are the slide ones.

I'm hoping I can make it again. Especially since its at Pickwick. This is one lake I've always wanted to fish.

Nice Smallie!!!!!!!!!!! LM fishing will never be the same.
