A few of the MD guys may have heard about or frequented Warrens bait box in Glen Burnie. The Warrens sold out a few years ago but I guess is wasn't soon enough. http://m.wbaltv.com/news/hunter-arrested-on-125-wildlife-violations/40696558

St Croix Mojo, just make sure you get the new model with the sc111 blank, they run $110-120. TW just had their 4th of July sale and Inpicked up a couple for $102. I do use these rods and highly recommend them.

Here are a couple screen shots from today, and I was wondering if this the thermocline I'm seeing at 15'. I'm kinda new at the whole depth finder thing, but from what I've seen here and YouTube it looks it could be it. This is a pretty clear reservoir which has always had me thinking it would be deeper then 15' but that around the same place it was last year also. All you FF gurus please help me out, thanks in advance for the help. Here's the other one

I primarily throw 110s but as Logan said that don't mean I don't own a bunch of LC pointers, Duo's Rapala's along with a few others. I do believe they do draw more strikes then the others, but that could be just a confidence thing. I feel the action is a little more subtle then the LCs. I've personally never broken any so I cant complain at all about the durability, but I mainly fish real deep reservoirs and once your 10' off the bank your in 20FOW. I will say that I've been throwing the same 110 ITO tour premium in wakasagi for two years now and its caught hundreds of bass including a bunch of pikerals and its still going strong, the finish is looking a little worse for wear and I've swapped out the hooks a couple times now and thanks to an extendable lure retriever shes hanging in there. My buddy that I fish with pretty much every weekend absolutely hates that lure, but he cant deny it's fish catching abilities...

I'm the same with the OG ones as well, I dont have any problems palming them. I went a head and picked up a CT as well as a new model St Croix Mojo Jerkbait rod, with the 4th of July sale I sale almost $50.

If your using one how do you like it? I currently own three tatulas and I like them a lot so I was thinking about trying out one of the ct's. I don't want a debate about this brand is better then that brand. The only decision I trying to make is between the OG tatula or the CT. Thanks in advance for the replies.

Instead of putting all the skirt material on and tying, try putting some material make a wrap or two add a little more material then another wrap or two. It's the wire or whatever your using to tie that's causing the separation. If you can get some skirt material to come btween wraps that should take out the separation.

If you know how to use your drag and handle the fish property you shouldn't have nothing to worry about. I use line that far exceeds my rods limitations quite a bit and have never broken a rod.

Definitely a black snake, not a king, As Darren said if it would've been a king it would most likely be eating another snake not a chipmunk. Black Snakes also have a pungent smell to them, if you grab hold of them the smell will stay on your hands for a bit.

I'm with blue on this one, as it's pretty much what I do as well.

Definitely not just the person working, I think Onvacation got lucky and got a good person. I've tried to return a couple of things to BPS and they always seem to make it a real PITA. From now on I just order from TW, and couldnt be happier. I bought a columbia fishing shirt and realized it had a few stains on the sleeve, I noticed this at the cashiers counter and told her. She said just take it to customer service and theyll take care of it. Well that would've been great if I would've had my drivers license. Now I just paid for this shirt with cash, and I never left the store I walked directly from the cashier to the service desk. I tried to grab another shirt on my way there to just exchange it, but they didnt have any more in my size. So I said Ill just take the money back then, and the manger asked for my license which I mistakenly left at the house. So he said go home and get it, well its 30 miles each way to my house. It wasnt like I left and came backtwo days later, I never even left the store. In total I spent over $200 that day and was trying to get my money back on a $20 shirt, but was told no because I could be trying to rip them off, it happens all the time he said. I took me to start getting fired up and raising my voice some, and when I started asking people in the line what they thought and they were agreeing with me the manager finally gave me my $20 back. Never again BPS never again.

If your looking at the new model of mojo with sc 111 blank, then I'd go that route for sure. BPS customer service sucks, as where St Croix's customer service is one of the best out there.

If your running them in parallel then charge them like that, so they can charge equally. The batteries will last longer that way, the right charger will be able to charge two batteries that are in series also. I know my BPS XPS charger can do it, so I would i would think most digital chargers can also. Just make sure you have every thing hooked up right.

I would go x/f and it will make an awesome top water walking rod, and a great jerkbait rod as well. I have the new version St Croix mojo bass in 6'8" m x/f and it's a sweet rod. St Croix definitely done a good thing when they changed the blanks in these rods, complete night and day difference compared with the older version.

I'm a rightie and I reel with my right hand, always since Ive been a kid. Do what your most comfy with, unless your trying to tourney fish. If so then there's the argument that you lose to many casts by taking time to switch hands. Me I don't fish tourneys, it would take all of the relaxation out of fishing, and that's the main reason I fish.

I fished an east wind yesterday and I caught about 20 of them from 1lb to 4lbs. Unfortunately I'm not a rich man and my fishing days are on my days off along with my honey do days, so I fish no matter wind direction and I havent been skunked in a couple years. Some days may only be one or two, but any day out on the water is a great day. The only time winds keep me home is if it's really blowing and that's only because I fish electric motor only reservoirs.

I use only cork, and the majority of them are split grips. I do have a couple Avids that are full grips, I haven't really noticed any pros or cons either way besides a full grip is probably a tad heavier.

I never thought of Carolina rigging them, I do however fish them on a underspin. I was really interested in hardbaits, I guess I should've mentioned that. I've been looking at bullshads as they claim to be fast sinkers but will they run at them depths.

What are you Swimbait guys using in deep water, say 25-30'. I primarily fish deep clear reservoirs and in the summer the good bass are in generally 25-30' of water, so that leaves me searching for a good Swimbait that will get to that depth somewhat quickly and stay there. What are you using in these conditions, any input is highly appreciated..

It's a shame she had to die just so someone could get their 5 minutes of fame.

But your saying that it don't make no noise when your reeling the reel?
