  1. Chompers is the only other one I have had success with. The GYCB hula grub in black with blue flake and a 1/4oz Tru Tungsten Weed Wacke is still my favorite.
  2. Wait till BPS has their Spring Sale and pick up a Tourney Special M 6'6''. They usually have them for around $29.99.
  3. I like using screw in weights for specific purposes but they do destroy the front of the plastic faster. I like using them basically for any plastic worm with curly tail (Culprit) or swimbait tail (Swimming Senkos).
  4. If you could own just one Megabass Lure, which one would it be and what color? I know there are much cheaper alternatives but I was just curious.
  5. I never got all of what they did wrong. What exactly was it that they did to call it "CHEATING"? One thing I do remember is security officials from Motorola at the Chargers game (the game after the Jets) monitoring the stadium audio transmitions. Sometime during the game they brought in new equipment and rewired it. Why would Motorola be doing this? The thing that bothers me the most is, lets say the Patroits did cheat. Why would they need to? They are a great, powerhouse team without all of the inside audio and video. It seems like overkill.
  6. If you can find it, some stores will have the Shimano Stradic 2500 (old style) on sale for around $75-$100. If not the Symetre would make for a great reel. One other suggestion would be the Pflueger President.
  7. Years ago my mother and father retired and moved to Bradenton/Palmetto, Florida. For fun, the retired folks would sit at the corner of 59th and Manatee Ave to watch all of the car wrecks. There is at least 10-20 a day depending on how busy the outlet mall is. I guess if you have a pulse they will give a driver's license to anybody down there. Most of the accidents are old folks driving big cars, real slow so there is not much damage or injury done but there sure is a lot of yelling going on. These guys need to pick up a hobby....
  8. What do you think?
  9. I think RW wins this one......... Looks like Franco Harris to me.
  10. That is one big fish. What was left of the Megabass vision 110? Nice catch. Congrats.
  11. Awesome fish.... I'm jealous. We're supposed to get 6-8in of snow tonight.... Please let spring come quickly.
  12. No more Gummy Bears for me......
  13. That's pretty funny. When I first read it, I thought the hunters missed.
  14. I saw these on the GYCB website. Anybody tried them yet? I am not a big fan of the shakey head tech. but it might be something new to consider. http://www.baits.com/cgi-bin/order/9P-10
  15. I bought one pack of the new Coffee Tubes just to try it out. I went back to buy some more at my local tackle shop and they were all sold out. The tackle shop owner said it was the hottest new item they have stocked so far this year. I have yet to hear of or see anyone catch a fish with them yet. One things for sure I like the smell and Strike King has come up with some great colors. They may have a winner on their hands.
  16. I tried Fireline a few years ago and thought it was the best ever the first 15 minutes I used it. After that, it quickly became one of the worst. I had high hopes but after losing several baits, I will not use it again. >
  17. I like to read the reviews from these guys from time to time. Some are pretty good and some are just OK. But when I saw this one, I was very surprised to read it. Most of time, these guys are not ones to report anything super bad about a product. This article is a little different. http://www.tackletour.com/reviewluckycraftrcsupreme.html
  18. I always went with cold deep water wide wobble, shallow warm water tight wobble. And just the opposite, shallow cold water wide wobble and warm deep water tight wobble.
  19. Mine use to be the Tarzan yell but I have since changed it to Hendrix's Voodoo Child Intro.
  20. Like everybody else I have to say Culprit is my favorite.
  21. Same here when it comes to getting new products. I have been going to Dicks. My Gander Mountain still has the Shimano Stradics at regular price and no news on getting the new ones in. Also, they a real old Shimano Stella that is also the old regular price. I don't get it. Also, if you live in the Indy area check out a bait shop called Anglers World. They carry everything new you can immagine. From Megabass to G. Loomis, they have all kinds of stuff I have never seen at Dicks or Gander Mountain.
  22. I have a Sustain 2500 and it is an awesome reel but it takes a really experienced angler and a pretty good guy driving the boat to pull off a stunt like that on such a small reel.
  23. I like Booyah Jigs. They're simple and not to expensive. If I had to pick one I don't like, I would pick Stanley Jigs. I never had any luck with the ones I bought. They all fell apart and they paint came off just after the first cast.
  24. I am bored out of my skull and thought I need some coffee. My wife always yells at me for getting wierd coffee. Do you guys have a favorite? Anybody think Starbucks is crazy but tasty? If I had to pick a favorite coffee company though, I would go with Gevalia. Expensive, tastes fantastic and their service is a good as G. Loomis'. http://www.gevalia.com/Gevalia/
  25. I always thought Gander Mountain was somehow involved with BPS. The Gander Mountain by me carries Tracker/Nitro Boats, their soft plastic is similar, and their house brand jeans are exactly like BPS' minus the name. But they do carry YoZuri Hybrid Ultra Soft, which I have never seen at BPS. One things for sure the Gander Mountain by me very rarely has a sale on anything I want to buy. I don't mind shopping there but I am always able to find better prices someplace else.
