  1. Very cool!! Congrats!
  2. I use a Tournament Pro 7.1.1. Awesome reel especially for 199.00 I have also had my eyes on a light. I just haven't pulled the trigger yet either. My favorite shaky is the Extreme with the Owner Deep Throat hook.
  3. I've never used those but I have used Matzu Sickle hooks for Walleye. They worked pretty darn good with a Berkly leach on the back.
  4. Have fun!!! Its always a possibility to go unless your a Cubs fan. I would really like to see the Royals win since the Cards are not in it anymore.
  5. That is just down right awesome!!
  6. I find it in the water isle at our walmart by the gallon.
  7. Nice buck!! Congrats to your brother.
  8. LOL, I was thinking something close to that.
  9. Awesome job!! Congrats.
  10. What a let down Jeff. I expected a drum!! Awesome job!!! Congrats on the PB.
  11. My guess would probably be a Zebco 33 combo.
  12. I've caught a couple with hooks in their mouths but never a lure.
  13. Its not the only jig you can drag but it works the best due to it being the most stable.
  14. Thanks WRB. sorry about missing the question.
  15. So far I have never broke a jig off of braid 832 Suffix. I have had to cut a couple off but never broke one off. I do not fish a leader on braid. I will fish straight braid or straight flouro.
  16. I fish it 2 primary ways. First is a light jig, a swim jig or finesse jig and keep constant contact with the jig and basically swim or hop it on top of the rocks. Its a technique that may take some time to figure out but basically you hop or swim never letting the jig fully settle down into the cracks of the big rocks. Option 2 a good football jig that will help keep from wedging in between the big rock. Use a vertical drag or hop will help the jig from falling or wedging into the big chunk rock. There are tricks to this also. Feel is very important here. If you can not feel the jig you will probably wedge it in the rocks. Constant contact with the jig is extremely important. Those are the two primary ways I fish rip rap or big rocks.
  17. 3/8-1/2 oz Big O Brush Jig.
  18. I see many topics come along about selecting the correct jig head for a certain situation or just all around use. There are many factors in this like structure, bottom composition and overall preferences from the individual fisherman. To make things easier here is a base guideline that should help out on picking a jig to match the conditions. Many types and styles will cross into different structures and work in most cases and some really shine in a specific use. Here is a good way to save some time and pick the right head that will do well in these conditions. Brush Jig The Brush jig is a great all around jig style. Personally one of my favorites that I fish. This jig functions well in the brush, does well in rock, and light weeds. It also sits the trailer and falls at about a 45 deg angle that has the trailer pointed up. Football Jig The good ol football jig. This jig head design works great in rock, ledge fishing, or dragging. Some even use them in brush. The wide football head style runs well through the rock and is very stable from rolling over. Arky Jig Arky jigs are a proven design that is very versatile. The Arky jig works good in rock, light weeds, brush, and even skips. It is truly a great all around jig for many applications. Roundball Jigs A roundball jig, typically is fished with a finesse skirt on it produces a small profile jig for finicky fish. The round ball jig is a well rounded style that fishes good in pretty much all scenarios except weeds. This jig is one that i resort too when the fishing gets tough and the bite is real light. Punching jigs/Grass Jigs This is a jig that makes a great cross between grass fishing in thick weeds in heavy weights to swimming. Its more cone styled head pulls through weeds will less resistance then any other head style above. If your looking to fish heavy weeds with a jig a cone/bullet styled head tends to be the best for minimum weeds. Swim Jig The good ol swim jig is a very versatile design and is generally made to mimic baitfish. This design can be fished in pretty much all structures but is best when swimming, light weeds, weedlines, or small rocks, and laydowns. If you cut the skirt it also makes a great finesse jig like the roundball jig. These style jigs have really become popular in the last several years. I hope this helps in decoding the jig head. There are many styles and many opinions on jigs and how they should be fished. Use this as a base line and grow your technique from there.
  19. Dont forget to use either one on a shaky head
  20. Nice catchin!!!
  21. I watched some of the game last night. I think they will make it the whole way!! I want to see a Cards vs Royals series.
  22. She sure does and I'm glad she likes to go. I love the times she says "Hey, lets go fishing this weekend." How do you say no to that!!!
