  1. My current baitcasters are Daiwa and Shimano. Spinning reels are Lew's, Shimano, and Pflueger.
  2. Zoom green pumpkin Ultra Vibe Speed Craw with a 3/0 EWG hook. For fishing around the bank I use between a 1/8 and 1/4 ounce weight depending on the wind. The line will be 15 lb Big Game.
  3. At least you didn't get any princes from a foreign country asking for money.
  4. I've been reorganizing the terminal tackle again, and looking at the larger swivel bell sinkers. I'm thinking that I should put together a poor man's free rig and see how it fishes.
  5. My daughter became lactose intolerant a couple of years ago. She has to take medicine before she eats anything with dairy in it.
  6. The oldest reel I currently use is about 9 years old. My older reels are all retired.
  7. I start out organized at the first of the season, and then go down hill from there.
  8. I wonder if any of the lures in that catalog are still being made today.
  9. I been fishing the same 5/8 oz, black jitterbug for quite a few years now. I keep using it because I've never seen anyone else fishing with one.
  10. Hang in there, and catch some big mommas!
  11. I don't think I have gotten a catalogue from BPS in a couple of years. I guess I haven't been spending enough.
  12. The cost, and I've discovered over the years that I like fishing by myself, where and when I want to fish.
  13. I'm currently using a 6.3:1. I used to fish with a higher speed reel, but I was constantly having to force myself to slow down.
  14. Every once in a while I will have dreams where I am fishing. My wife has woken me up a few times because I try to cast in my sleep.
  15. First off welcome. Between Springfield, Kansas City, and Jefferson City you have the larger reservoirs, but there is also a bunch of smaller areas that are managed by the conservation dept.
  16. North, west, and east. Not a lot of places to fish south of me.
  17. No, but I have fished some bodies of water that are just down right cursed.
  18. I've probably caught more bass on a Smithwick Suspending Rogue than any other hard jerkbait.
  19. So far I have loaded up the tackle bag with cold water baits, sharpened hooks, and started cleaning reels. I have about 1/2 of the reels cleaned, and with this cold, I am in no hurry to get the job done. Getting ready to do some online shopping to see what is new and available.
  20. I don't know what to say except that you will be in our prayers.
