  1. This is at the end of my street.
  2. I am probably in the minority but I set down in a regular seat 90% of the time. I stand up if I am pitching or flipping or if I need to stretch for a while. I actually have a better hook set sitting down. I have tried the butt seat but it just isn't for me.
  3. I have never met a Lew's I did like, buy the one according to your price range.
  4. When you have the rod up, about 11 o'clock position, engage the cast bar and with the lure at the rod tip, it should slowly go to the floor with hardly no overrun when it hits the floor. Keep adjusting until it does this. Does this make any sense.
  5. I think that 16# test is perfect, use it on my plastics and spinnerbaits rigs. It is actually thinner than the 14# test I use to use.
  6. Nice one !! 6.5-7.0 is my guess.
  7. Junebug followed by Junebug.

    Flukes

    Tenn. Shad.
  9. Medium or Medium Light will work. I tries the 6'9"ML but just feel right. I went back to my 6'3" Diawa Guido Hibdon rod I had from years back. I not sure, but I think it is a Medium. I use straight 7# test Sunline.
  10. I still throw spinnerbaits with the rubber skirts. The spinnerbait that I use still comes with the rubber skirts and old twist tie. I think it gives a different look. It still catches fish.
  11. Great tips, but I would never go fishing without my plug knocker. Cranks are the hardest to free.
  12. Pflueger President Limited Edition, or any Pflueger for that matter. I got the Limited and the Supreme XT and can't tell much difference in either.
  13. Go fishing, go early, stay late. Learn all you can from internet and friends who are good fishermen.
  14. Great Ned Rig rod. Also good for throwing light jigs, roadrunners for crappie.
  15. Same thing happen to me but I never took it to the shop. I had cranked up my motor the day before and just let it idle, it was on a lake where you could not run the outboard. The next day I saw the oil running down on the skeg and freaked out. Got on the internet and found out it could be coming from exhaust. Cleaned it up and it has been fine ever since.
  16. I don't unhook anything until I know the boat will hit water when I unhook. I believe the web site warns of this. I even installed a safety chain just in case the winchstrap breaks.
  17. This was the method I used and worked great. I got some ultimate bunks and had to change my routine. I back the boat back until most of the bunks were covered with watch and then pull up to where I can unhook without getting in the water. I still hook up my 25 foot rope, and give the boat a shove and off it goes.
  18. I use a bait by Old River Lures called Mr. Hootie. It is local bait that is pretty popular in MS and LA. It comes in all weights but is smaller than your average size spinnerbait. It comes with the old style skirt and has the twist tie instead of the r bend. Really a good bait.
  19. Great idea, I believe the flag would really help people see you.
  20. Exactly what I would choose.
  21. I think it's a good choice. I love Sniper.
  22. Tennessee Shad
  23. Academy Sports, Bass Pro, Walmart probably has them.
  24. Try your local Craig's List, that's where I bought my truck and boat.
  25. WOW !!!! Nice crappie.
