Jigfishn10

Unfortunately, as I get older and life becomes busier, it's time to step aside for a while ... Be good Auf Wiedersehen (until we meet again) John

Unfortunately, there's no need for confrontation in my life when I'm fishing, I just walk away to another spot ... ignorance is bliss

Hahaha ... I can't Keep going

I haven't been called Jiggy since Tate (probably before your time), Grampa and Jonesy was around and we use to have get togethers a couple of time a season ... you're going to the way back machine BTW - we're the same age Hahaha ... Unfortunately, Mr. Howe, we lose hair where we need it and grow it where we don't

Just cam back from the mail box and my boat policy just came in ... ha ... not kidding ... irony isn't lost. Anyway, not sure what happened between now and a month ago when I got the e-mail, but my premium is $150 HELLOOO BAIT MONKEY EDIT: Oh wait, I'm hearing my mooring fee just went up ... can't catch a break!

Totally agree and wouldn't hit the water without it either ... Mine is thru Progressive as well The vanishing deductible is a new one on me...I probably have it and didn't realize it. Now I have homework to do, thanks a lot!

Oh crap, glad this came up, I need to renew this year....last registration period was $44.00 per 2 years ... $22/yr. Insurance this year is $175 Let's not give them any ideas tho

I agree. But I'm guessing over time, the rubber band collars eventually dry rot off and the skirt gets blown away blah blah blah ... anyway, not in my pay grade to speculate HAHAHA ... it's here to stay and we have alternatives to enjoy it, right? Love the dialog

That’s funny you posted this @A-Jay, I was looking for it yesterday to post on

It's a great question if you live up north. The boat spends 1/2 the time out of the water than in the water. BUT....there is something that is very calming to me about being on the water and drift jigging along. The stresses in life professionally just go away. Especially when you get that sweet tugging feeling on the end of your line, on a jig you made over the winter. It's worth all the stresses professionally that you have to allow you to make such a dumb investment in the first place

Hate to admit this, but I remember her imitating Tarzan ... oh boy

It has to do with loons and how they pick up rocks. I read about it years ago and really don't remember what they really do with rocks, I think it was a digestive thing. But the concern was that a jig heads and sinkers were being mistaken by loons as rocks and causing all kinds of problems.

So I got fooled S41T!! hahaha

It was. I think they use nickel as a base metal

I spaced out and totally forgot about the game last night. Man, “As I Get Older … “

Amazon sux, send the cards to me and I will make sure to dispose of them properly Or you can use this cart at checkout

I drift fish a lot on structure. Nothing wrong with it

Are you replacing hooks on hard baits? Probably need no. 4's & 6's, I'm guessing?

All good @DaveT63

Great article! @Glenn, I just realized the author, Scott Petersen, he's been doing articles on here for, well, forever. At least as far back as I can remember.

Impressive @Zcoker! We get dogfish in the bay, that’s about it for shark Thankfully

Ok…so yeah, pretty much the same as us. I ended up selling a couple of molds and lead.

Is that what it was? I really haven’t had a chance to dig into it. It’s been a busy day

Are you guys still using leaded jigs and sinkers up in NH? We were banned in like 2011 and retailers have been pretty good about selling alternative products. I think I got a rogue full lead package. I'm guessing the retailer had no idea. Kinda weird talking about this after all these years

I read an article from Outdoor Life about a week or so ago and it's been .... well, forever since I read an article from Outdoor Life. Now I'm finding that they have shows on? Now I gotta see if I can find them. Thanks @detroit1
