I have one in my retirement portfolio it is a 2001 or 2002? It is in my stash of collectable baits that includes a 110 in Deadly Black and a Ichiban Balsa Pro minnow. Allen

I made out when they discontinued those Kinami Flash senkos. Paid $0.50 - 2.00 a pack depending on color and bought just about every pack for sale. That day we hit up 5 Wal-Marts and cleaned them out but I only found maybe 5 packs of watermelon. Allen

Barlows Tackle has (or had the catalog I here is a 2013) them. Allen

Pour my own since none of the ones on the market sink like I want them to. The other two baits I use are a Zoom super fluke and some leftover Kinami prototype baits. Allen

Just an FYI, the Frederick Ollies has a bunch of Zoom and Berkley soft plastic baits for $1.99 a pack right now. Allen

Zoom and RI on a Owner weighted hook is a good place to start. I am sure everything mentioned works as I have not tried a paddle tail that did not. Allen

Good luck with that, I drove over Liberty Saturday going to the Gamber fishing flea market and it was frozen solid. Allen

Use Berkley Big Game mono in 10lb until you feel comfortable with the baitcaster. BG can be found at Wal_Mart on sale for like $6 for 1000 yards. Allen

Last time I tried this when the paint cured it stuck the wire to the weight. When I pulled the wire out it chipped the paint around the point to a sharp edge. Allen

Sure hope it warms up soon! I would be happy with just getting the snow and ice off my boat cover at this point. Allen

Those names mean nothing to me and I just sort them by weight. Allen

This is the best advice you can get for fishing Lake Seneca from the shore. There is a lot of water and it is hard to cover in a boat. Allen

Cunnigham Falls State Park is where I would start personally. There are both bass and trout in the lake and it is easy to fish from shore. Allen

I have been experimenting with bullet weights myself. The ones I have are too shiney but they were so cheap I couldn't pass them up. The BPS GP painted ones are $4 per 10 and I bought these for $0.50 a bag of 12. Tried putting a bags worth in a plastic bottle with some Coke to dull them. It worked but not very well and they were in there for about two weeks. On a saltwater forum a guy mentioned using Drano which I may try? Powder painting is the best option but the hole gets painted shut or the piece of wire that holds the weight fuses to it. If all else fails I will just spray paint them with a can of OD primer like before. Doesn't hold up the best but some days they do not last long enough to lose their paint. Allen

This should be a kept at the top! The only thing I can add is that the amber collars dry rot quicker than any other color. Allen

You can bend the blades back some and they will spin easier. Holding the rod tip high helps as well from what I remember. Allen

Dark gray when the sun is out and amber for low light conditions. I bought a couple pairs of the SK S11 glasses cheap and keep them in the boat glove box. Allen

Looks good and I will have to try some. Do they make one in a smoke color? Allen

When I have 3/8oz custom spinnerbait mold made they just used the weight of the lead itself. Most spinnerbaits weigh twice what the package says. Allen

Do you have anymore of those live pointers in ghost minnow? Allen

They have been clearancing them around here for like $4 each. Allen

http://www.amazon.com/Renegade-TOURNAMENT-CULL-SYSTEM/dp/B00CF11C0E I just bought one of these and replaced the clips with those from a metal stringer. One thing I learned is to sharped the tip of the clips so they are easier to punch through the fishes mouth. Allen

Doesn't the cork get glued to the metal rod? Allen

Maybe anglers but most but businesses buy from GLC Fishing including Charles at Fishingskirts.com. http://www.glcfishing.com/folders.asp Try the link above and see if you recognize any of the names under the link columb. Allen

Try a War Eagle or similar bait with smaller willow blades for clear water. The bait in my Avatar I made to fish clear water and it has worked when I could see the bottom at 20'. As for spinnerbait vs squarebill vs swimjig I find that they just prefer one over the others that day. Generally I try all three and just stick with whatever is working. Last spring I could not buy a bite on a crank but was catching them on a spinnerbait in clear water. Fished the Lower Potomac which is mud colored and a white swim jig outfished the other two 10-1.
