How about a 42Lb Flathead on a Mann's Stone Jig..That's My Boy!

Fantastic job on the interview. I had my fingers crossed for Ike, but I was very happy for Skeet.

I grew up near the Schuylkill river and fished my whole childhood for catfish and other junk fish. One day while fishing in a farmpond(!) at the age of 24 I caught a 7lb 8oz largemouth. Since that day, May 5th 1983, I've been a Bass Man.

This was the year I was finally going to hit that lake and Tuscarora. Oh, well too bad for you and me. I hope it doesn't happen to my favorite lake. In fact you know what, don't anybody bother fishing in my neck of the woods unless you hear back from me that all is OK.

Z-Man, by a 2lb Test Mono over Ike for pure entertainment. Ike is more on a mission of promoting Urban fishing, Zona is there to make me laugh(I hope).

Welcome, I'm over in Berks Co./Montgomery Co. area, but i only have 2 grandchildren Lots of Frozen Water outside here.

I hope to find out this weekend. My son just got a couple Citica's this month and my Revo SX-HS should be here today or tomorrow. I'm so glad he bought some good reels. I was getting neck pain from constantly spinning my head around everytime his old reel would make very bizarre noises on casts and lock up. I know he really likes the Citica's, I've been an Abu Garcia man all my life, I got that from my dad.

Marsh Creek Park in Chester Co. is one of the most popular Bass lakes. It is electric motor only as is most of the better places. Nockamixon is 20Hp max and Blue Marsh near Reading is unlimited HP. French Creek State Park near Birdsboro has 2 small lakes. 1 is were the State Record Smallmouth was caught, but we usually go to the lower Hopewell Lake which is bigger. I think it is only 68 acres, but it has boat rental. Montco has Green Lane Reservoir which has 2 lakes also, but you must quarantine your boat for 10 days unless you rent one. Deep Creek in the lower end only allows unmotored boats, but I think is better for shore fishing. Lake Galena is near Nockamixon and is also good for many species besides bass. Chambers Lake and Struble are also good bass places and are in lower Chester Co.

Steve Kennedy. No particular tactical reason, I just like the guy.

I wonder if the location of the viewer could be the problem? I wonder if anyone in the U.S. is able to view it. Seemed like it wanted to go, but something was blocking it at the other end.

I have about 5 Lucky 13's that were my dads. He died in early 1970, so they are all from the 1960's or older. Only one Lucky 13 is in great condition and that has been packed away. I'm waiting for hooks from Stamina right now to get some of his other lures up and ready. Most had been repainted by him, so I figure they aren't worth much except for what they were made for. I was going to use them and some Creek Chub Pikie Minnows for Musky when the water thaws again.

Very, very, cool.

Your right. I heard that too, but forgot. I had found some moth balls at my moms and have them for winterizing, but I'm afraid my compartments will hold the smell in and ruin baits(might help?) next year. I'm going to try the Dryer cloths this winter.

I had this problem too. I went to BPS and got one of these for $7 This solves the bouncing, but I don't consider it good as a safety strap. I tie a knot below the buckle so it can't work its way loose, but I don't know how well it would work in an accident or winch failure.
