Newspaper is still sold? Just kidding Sam, I'll see if I can find it on line, I'm curious now.

Man I loved it down in Cozumel. Get well and enjoy the rest of your honeymoon!

I wish you nothing but the best of luck my friend!

Lets do this, I bought 3 Megastrike StrikeBack spinnerbaits to try down in Disney last month, I ended up giving 2 away to my guides (1 guide for the day and 1 guide I had in '07 that I bumped into who got me into spinnerbaits in the first place), so I have to buy some more. PM your address and I'll tie a Zonker strip to a 3/8 oz StrikeBack to send to you. You can get the best of both worlds by trying a StrikeBack and having a lucky rabbits foot! BTW, when I made that spinnerbait pictured above, my then 10 yo daugter dubbed it the SpinHareBait...LOL

Cool, be sure to post a pic of your creation, preferably with an oinker next to it!

Don't you have some nuts to twist!

No need to feel bad Jeff, I'm guessing I'm older than you and didn't get that one myself.

C'Mon, did you see what I just did there?

I'm sure he repaired his ball mark though?...Hmm, that was fowl.

Oh we will, aharris...we will...ROFL We're just passing time for the Canadien Geese to come down to crap all over our golf courses this spring...Fun times ahead my friend!

You're right, we had to wait for a hurricane to come through in the Fall to get moisture back into the ground...but yet, weeds in my back yard continued to grow...only green lawn on the street in August.

I'll run out of "Like"s again...LMAO...

So that's what headed for us at the end of the week....Keep it A-Jay, I don't want it!

CAD porn...LOL I actually have a clue as to what they are talking about...Man, I need to get a life.

Signed when it came out on this thread at the beginning of the month: http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/112602-maine-legislators-poised-to-ban-all-soft-baits/ It just amazes me that our elected few will go out of the way to save a loon (lead ban in MA recenty) and now fish, yet we have natural disasters here in our own country and then it's foot dragging time when it comes to sending aid/financial relief. Or save a loon and a fish, but Phillip Morris keep producing cigarettes please.

No sweat, just add a snap to the split ring that came on the swivel. The zonker strip was put on one winter while I was bored one Sunday after football was done for the season. I really like the look it and knew it was a bit "off the wall", but I had to try it out. Finally the water was soft, so I went to field test it. Much to my surprise, it had a really nice action to it and next thing you know, I felt like I snagged. 1 pump of the rod, still snagged. Second pump of the rod, I feel this weight and wiggle...it was a big girl looking for the rabbits foot... The zonker strip's action isn't as pronounced as say a grub trailer, but it doesn't have a flat response as say a twin tail trailer. More middle of the road, yet still adds a different profile...I like it.

ROFL....nice!

Man, we just got 8 more inches of snow last Saturday on top of the 30" from the previous week...DON'T TEMPT ME!!!!!!!!

Besides all the different retrieves that can be made...slow roll, stop-n-go, yoyo, helicopter etc, I like a little luck tied onto my spinnerbait: It's not a rabbit's foot, but a zonker strip (rabbit fur). I also like to add a snap to the swivel in place of a split ring so I can change blade sizes, colors and shapes as needed. This spinnerbait caught my PB a week and a half after ice out.

Very nice! That lake has a great reputation for some big healthy bass. I'm a construction Superintendent and Estimator for a commercial General Contractor.

Is that the same lake that O'Neill Williams filmed 2 or 3 of his shows at? Very nice and well managed lake if it is!

Keep up the good work bkohan.

bassh8ter, this site needs both sponsors and members. RW is here to help both, that's it. If you don't like it, then post in a different thread.

For me, I really look for a split ring that will fit onto the crank and allow it to swing freely on the crank as well as the hook. I have a chart somewhere on this computer that I use as a guide and If I can dig it up I will post it. The split ring on the chart is basically matched up to the treble hook eye, but generally not to the hanger on the crank. That's basically why I use it as a guide, for me, it's just a starting point.

Let's hope so...His Bass Class show was really good. How about a third book? Then again, I'm not really a fan...
