When I was in FLA for a week, I had a 4 hour window and went out with a guide. Kind of a last minute thing. As a fair warning, he said that the fishing had been terrible. I fished with a swim senko, T-rigged with an 1/8 oz sinker. Long casts, just swimming the bait and dropping inTo pockets. Must have caught closed to 15 in that 4 hour window. He said it was the best 4 hours he had with a client in a week. So ok, swim senko

It is shrink wrapped, but why 100% better? You have a tarp over a factory cover. Twice the protection. Maybe stand a piece of 2x wood in the middle and create more of a tee pee? My biggest winter boat issue is the mice that like to reside and not pay rent for the winter Sorry man, I'm sure you have it all figured out. I'll stop posting here now

I think you’ll be fine. This sits out all winter long and has made it through plenty of snow events

Ahh...I had a feeling you knew that...My bad, sorry for the quote. Hopefully someone who reads these posts will learn something from it Apologies again

When you say you doubled anchored, were you doubled anchored at 2 different points like fore and aft or 2 anchors at 1 point? Usually you want to be anchored at 1 point so your boat can scope with changes in current direction. And yes, time and experience is very important.

I basically have 1 eye so treble hook lures are out of the question for me at least

New one by me. Keep posting on here, very interested in this

Gotta agree with this Boom, leave something in the tank

Man is it windy here today. West to east. Just ushering in the cold air from the Midwest. I appreciate all you Midwesterners for sharing but ..... I'm good thank you ...

For dinner

Please PM me or give a reaction to my post prior to posting that...If for anything, it will give me a heads up not to peek back into in this thread

You just needed some Italian ingenuity

Ripp'n emergent weeds with a lipless crankbait has always been a favorite technique with me

No one suggested it. I just get baffled when a company sells the biz to a lager company people can’t understand it. Companies get bought and sold daily and I get there is a transitional disruption in operations, eventually they get ironed out. It’s just biz as usual EDIT: You must have edited your post after I posted...sorry I totally respect your opinion of the transaction and how it all changed in 7 mos. Admittedly, I don't know all the details of the transaction. Usually when one sells a biz they are asked to stay on for a certain period of time to help with the transition but after that all bets are off, it's not the family run biz any more it's Corporate America. Might not be right, but a fact of life. I have been thru a transaction where the company sold to a venture capitalist and somehow I'm still involved/employed...It was a hard transition with many changes and I had to adjust with it.

Why is it a bad thing to sell a business for a profit

OUCH! Sounds painful....actually, I was in a rush at work a few years back and got something out of the truck and did the same thing. Not sure how I did it either ... The pain was real

Wow @TnRiver46, I figured you for a red paisley handkerchief patch guy on those pants

Are you trying to make it blend in with the belly of the bait to minimize flash Tom? EDIT: king fisher I remember guys used to take the floating jerkbaits and drilling holes in them so they can fill bait with water to do exactly what you’re doing @king fisher

Thank you @Deleted account, appreciate that. I really have nothing to trade you for them, most of my gear is salt gear now. Hoping to get back to bass fishing this year tho. Appreciate the offer tho John

haha MMMM…Crack

Results from bad chili? J/K did the municipal pipes recently get cleaned and chlorinated?

My son and I were gonna go fishing yesterday, but I really didn't want to buy him a license for 1 day

Seriously, what do you really think and please don’t hold back I shouldn’t have read this while drinking coffee. Gotta run and clean my computer screen

Interesting. Without removing the ballast/rattles?

Sorry for bringing this back, I linked it to another thread to illustrate the color topic of the post. Thank you
