  1. It is from Southern wv...so it's probably stolen...lol jk (sort of). I'll ask for more pictures and info.
  2. loosen tension, brakes stay at 4. Pretty simple really. Trick is learning how to make longer casts with loose tension so you don't waste a few seconds fiddling with knob.
  3. Any thoughts on this boat? http://swv.craigslist.org/boa/4271909988.html I've never had a boat before and am looking for a cheap starter. My small truck (04 nissan frontier v6) should be able to haul this smaller boat better than 19 footers (and it'll fit in the garage). The 50 HP motor is a bit concerning, but I don't have experience with outboards and really don't need to start with 200hp. I would like to get into tournament fishing either this year or next, but I think this boat will suffice. Should I ask for more pictures, especially of the motor? Thanks fellas
  4. What do other people here have? I'd like to get a work bench and a rod holder/storage rack for the basement but not sure what accessories to put with it.
  5. Past two days have been warm...went to the small local lake...still frozen. So I deal with it by shopping and working on my gear
  6. 7 mh f or xf. it's not a really specific presentation so a wide range of rods will work.
  7. Anyone ever fish it? I've lived in the area but never have. Is it a worthy bass fishing lake.
  8. a point dropping into creek bed with timber
  9. i got that.river2sea diving frog I'd like to catch a bass on
  10. evolve nervous walker in green leopard. walks great and is incredibly soft. but I want to try bronze eye popper and sprouts king daddy. I want to try black and white. I don't believe bass can see the detail color on frogs but white and black provide the best outlines and therefore targets.
  11. I may go monday. supposed to be like 4. Lake may be froze though
  12. I needed this so bad. It's like I got into a time machine and went back to christmas! Thanks!
  13. as if being a "columnist" for an athletic apparel company (?) or having "special credentials" for wearing a ballcap isn't a reach? My comparison is spot on. Wearing medals your didn't earn and wearing a jersey you didn't earn implies to others that you are something when you are not. Nobody is going to see me in a nike shirt and confuse me with Phil Knight. If someone added sponsors to a BR jersey, I wouldn't have a problem. that's "my opinion", which was asked for by the OP, so stop with the snarkiness.
  14. Maybe I'll push my local tackle shop to look at getting their lures from them. Their markups now are a bit hefty and their selection is mediocre.
  15. are you putting on that football jersey and stepping on the field? For your sake, I hope not. Sorry, but if I see a guy wear a biker shirt/ fishing jersey but aren't actually sponsored, I'd have a negative first impression. What about those guys who wear military medals but never served? Displaying national pride and attracting new recruits, or a toolbag looking for attention? If I ever wear a jersey, it will be because I earned it. Until then, I'll stick with BR sticker on my truck and hope someone I pass see's it and visits.
  16. Sorry, it is Gawdy Publish some articles or videos for BR and then wear it.
  17. Not bad, spend about $400 retail for products and only spend 300. I'll have to keep my eye open for deals on their gift cards.
  18. I imitate small bluegill especially when punching Lily pad fields. bluegill "pop" bugs off the undersides of pads so when I bounce a watermelon blue/orange flake plastic under the pads it imitates something bass see and eat every day. On the river bouncing a jig n trailer in brown across bottom gets hit a lot by smallies. throwing a white swimsenkos across a point imitates a shad being ambushed. you can imitate prey and it does work. It matters less with reaction style baits. However the right color on a reaction bait can be useful in the lure being spotted and struck.
  19. I'm saying they don't care. If it takes a discount for you to buy product then they'll do it. and with 20% sale you'll end up saving roughly 90 bucks not 30.
  20. financial wizard. like tw cares. you are spending money with them. what's your total savings. I'm poor in math.
  21. It isn't so much about what bait but where bait
  22. shell cracker always seemed too bulky on 3/8 for my tastes
  23. 3/8 revenge swim jigs work year round I use missile twin turbos and swimsenkos trimmed down.
  24. Anyone know what size bearings the Lews Laser MG Speed spool uses? They aren't listed on Boca's website. I'd like to upgrade this reel along with my lexa 100. Speaking of the lexa100, will I have to go with the boca bearings? I wanted to support hawgtech, but it doesn't appear they have the right size. Boca shows that their lexa100 pack has 2 bearings in different sizes.
  25. 1/8th and smaller. 5' is vital in getting through the brush and hiking.
