nature rules

never heard of tinkering with the spro other than bending the hooks slightly upwards. it only takes a half second to squeeze the water out of a spro after every other cast

if these freaks with their crummy agendas would let us operate in shallower waters it would be easier to manage

And forget about the US. I love my country but we're so behind in the mental and physical evolution of this sport. just imagine US vs. england or germany's starting line up...no chance

agreed. absolutely amazing skills. (watch arsenal) Oh, and viva dutch!! Always been a fan of total football, these guys are artists. But in all honesty, Spain and Germany will be the big wigs this time. Still can't believe Russia didn't make it.

legalizing everything could be the a way to enforce survival of the fittest. ;D seriously though, i don't know about legalizing everything, if they legalized crack, i would still know it wasn't for me. So would all of us who are in our right minds. I haven't touched pot since college, but it's almost completely harmless compared to alcohol, don't care what any one from the reefer madness generation says or thinks... i don't condone pot use but if i busted my kid with it, i wouldn't send him to rehab.

heck yeah, it already feels like 90 degrees by 11:30 here and that's where i have a bit of luck every time...deep crankin or drop shottin old lake and road beds. It's very exciting now that we picked up some old aerial photos of the land before it was flooded.

you guys need to see Blue Velvet. Amazing character

Just a reminder to keep a heads up this year on the water. Pleasure boaters are really picking up this time of year, lots of drunks out there tryin to impress the ladies and what not. Here's an article about two guys that were killed this past weekend on a reservoir i fish on every weekend. You never know what's gonna happen at a moment's notice. Sometimes i'll hear a boat coming up behind us to pass while we're fishing the bank of a river channel and i'll be so sucked in to my fishing that i won't bother looking up just to be sure.This guy wishes he had. http://www.clarionledger.com/article/20100601/NEWS/100601040/1263/RSS

i actually enjoyed the lego construction. but the shopping cart grill takes the cake

Yeah I have an STX, and it's no where near as good as my Daiwa Steez. I would definitely get the Steez instead. haha but seriously though, I do have an STX, and I have no complaints. I would say as long as you are not planning on casting really light baits, the STX is a fine reel. It has a heck of a drag too.

nice man, last weekend i had one just about that size slam a white spro while it was just sittin there next to the bank, i was foolin around with my tackle not paying a lick of attention.

took the words right outta my mouth.

well done

your manipulative skills

also distance is key. you dont wanna get too close to your target. hone your accuracy skills, i'm still workin on that one also

worldwide sportsman makes nice shirts out of the same material as the colombias PFG but less expensive.

feeling the tick tick then realizing it's not a grennel

so when you can't get bit on a RT, what do you switch to that does get you bit? and are you fishing them in the same place?

i peg them with 1/16 oz. bullet weights, or 1/8 oz ones depending on desired depth.http://www.***.com/Gambler_Screw_In_Florida_Rig_Weights/descpage-GSF.html try that over the weighted hooks, it works really well for me. i would also try a hook with a thinner wire gauge than the superlines.

can't wait to see the pics. good times 8-). last week i set the hook frog fishing, which requires a pretty judicious hook set cause you never know how big the fish is. Well i missed the fish but i ended up reeling in the bottom lip of some poor, super tiny bass. :'( i felt bad.

I fish a 33,000 acre reservoir system, chock full of hydrilla, hyacinth, and lily pads. Right now, we start churning ribbits on Zoom's 5/0 twistlock through the pads early in the morning. As the day progresses, they move out onto the edges of the pads, chasing shad closer to the river channel. We go after em with a combination of bandit's footloose or 200 series in rootbeer or threadfin, a 5" mission fish in shad color on a 6/0 Stanley swimmax hook, or a strike king's premier plus SB with the skirt replaced with a 3" money minnow, depending on water clarity. Then we like to hit up our pockets that have hydrilla filtering the silt and mud, improving water clarity. Here, we throw pearl swimming senkos with 1/16 oz pegged weights and destroy bass workin and jerkin em over the grass. And as it gets hotter than Georgia asphalt, we move to the backwaters and in the backs of creeks and target hyacinth mats over deeper water, flipping double wide beavers, zoom brushhogs and lizards through them with a 1 oz. Denny Brauer flippin' weight. We alternate that with tossin GMAN's flukes and letting em fall on the outsides of the mats, all the while fishing progressively slower and slower. Eventually we move out onto the main lake and fish deep on old lake beds with lucky craft's Rick Clunn XD crankbait, rapala DT 20, big *** jelly worms on a 5/0 owner J hook with a 1/2 oz bullet weight, and a weightless magnum fluke, doing tricks in 25 feet of water.

nice GMAN, except not ;D Fishin buds, only one have i had this dream. The girl in my dream wasn't even my gf. :-/
