  1. 15 bags of watermelon seed Zoom trick worms and 15 bags of junebug Zoom trick worms..
  2. You were a week too early... sorry.....
  3. You bet there are....I live south of Oneida and have lots and lots of great water to fish...
  4. Zoom products are 25% off.Last 2 years have been a bust for me.. Nothing much I want but will wander there anyways. 20 packs of trick worms will take care of my inventory. Good place on a rainy day...
  5. Don't understand why anyone would drive 2 hrs past Oneida Lake to fish >>>>>>>>>>>>>.
  6. Wayne P. is a good guy..Just trying to help out.. Each person has their favorite hooks. Personally, i have very few misses while wacky rigging a Zoom worm using a wide bend, light wire Gamy straight shank 2/0.. hook.. hard to find... it is # 49412.. Never use a weedless hook yet fish the very thick weeds and pads..
  7. They make raincoats so you can fish in the rain not so you can work in it.......................
  8. I have stayed in one of the cabins at Camp Mack that had 4 bunk beds (comfortable) and a double .. Great fishing within minutes..
  9. Why any extra weight at all ?? I go as light as possible, no swivel and a light wire hook.
  10. 1. Zoom Trick worm, watermelon seed 2. Zoom Trick worm, watermelon red 3. Zoom Trick worm, watermelon purple 4. Zoom Trick worm, green pumpkin red 5. Zoom Trick worm, watermelon gold glitter.
  11. I raise my own garlic.. smash it up good and put a tablespoon in each bag of plastics..... Hard to keep from eating them myself
  12. You fellows in Va.are not used to that much snow..Old Forge,N.Y...http://www.oldforge.net/pointpark/
  13. Islandbass, Everyday is a little different, some days they will take the wacky rigged worm soon after it hits the water. Other days they want it to lie on the bottom for a bit (dead sticking) . Most of the time it is somewhere in between.. I want the worm to stay in that strike zone as long as possible so go light .. Sometimes use a finesse worm.. Only use Zoom trick worms..
  14. I use Gamy light wire straight shank worm hooks. Have at least a 90% hook up. As light as they are I have never had one break... Found they are a lot easier to remove when deep hooked
  15. The other worm hook discussion was good.. How about some info.on Wacky rigs ???
  16. It is not so much seeing the line as it is fishing a totally loose line.. I was taught to pitch it out , drop the rod tip and let the line lie on top of the water. That assures the worm will drop straight down with no pendlum like swing.. Sometimes the trick worm will shoot off to one side or the other before making it's vertical descent... I NEVER use a leader or swivell on the line.. Never peg a worm with a nail. I tie directly to the hook.. Go as light as I can.. Even use a straight, light wire hook. Another important thing ( to me) is after replacing a worm I always dropit over the side and watch to see if the head and tail wiggle.. If not, re hook it.. Some worms never wiggle. I save them for the rare times I Texas rig.. I have so much luck I really believe the pro's wacky rig when no one is looking and put the fancy spinner and crank baits on when some one is looking....
  17. Thanks Wayne, Did you get mo PM ?? I'm not good with these computers...
  18. Too long ago, buy a new one....now......
  19. Yes I use backing (except on the 1000 reel) and I also reverse it.. That is why my Fusion supply has lasted for 4 years.. When I pitch (usually underhanded) I then immediately point the rod tip right back at the spot the worm hit.That leaves the line laying on top of the water. As the worm sinks I just watch the floating line for the tell tale twitch.. I was taught you had to fish wacky with a loose line.. It sure works for me.. It is that vertical drop without the swinging arch of a tight line.. I fish light compared to most Fl. guys. Med rod, 6 ft. 1000 or 1500 reel and 10 lb line.. Yes I lose some good fish but usually get my share of 8# each year.. Best is a 12#14 oz. on the rig mentioned above...
  20. I tried Power Pro.It seemed to soak up some water and sink.. As you know, when wacky rigging, the like has to float.. Trying to stay away from the braids but hate mono. So will probably end up with Firewire..
  21. Fireline is my 2nd choice right now.. Have to fish it new line couple hours to soften it but I have found it bleeds.. The coating on Fusion would come off where the bass would rub it with lips so re-tying was an after most every fish thing.. That coating on the "improved would sluff off anyplace and had to respool after every trip..
  22. I use 10 or 12lb. test...
  23. I loved Spiderwire Fusion. The "new improved" was junk ... I bought up all of the original I could find and am now running out.. I am 100% spinner guy, pitching trick worms.. Need suggestions on something close to the Fusion.. Thanks....
  24. Have at it if that is your style. I just don't think anchoring outside a bunch of pads, heaving out 10 or 12 shiners under a bobber and then settling into a book is fishing..
