Took a Crappie fishing buddy of mine bass fishing a couple Springs ago on a grassy lake. I tied him a T - Rigged TRD on a 2/0 EWG and 1/16 oz tungsten bullet weight on his medium spinning rod. As we're easy along I look back and he's just trolling it, facing straight out the back of the boat. I threw big swimbaits, chatterbaits, Flukes, etc. and he caught three times the fish I caught that day and the big fish. Opened my eyes to power of the T - Rigged TRD, which why alot of my pictured fish have one hanging out of it's mouth.

Never Shapied my braid. I just fish for the old fat girls with cataracts.

That's excellent.

Marina/Bait shop Monkey's are twice as aggressive as a standard bait Monkey. Could've been worse.😆

Yes. Homemade.

Excellent. Thanks for sharing.

No. I want nothing to do with a 22oz bait.

The 5" Bullshad is 1.35oz and the Toad face top weight is 1 & 1/8 so it should be fine. IMO the 6" is 2oz and would overload the TF.

Happy Birthday A-Jay. You definitely played a role on me getting my rump back in the gym after a decade. Thank you.

Hairline lead wire. Quick and easy to adjust on the fly.

It's not my fault. Everyone I know always ask me, how's the fishing been, so out comes the phone for the picture show.

She's a beautiful girl. Please, tell us the detailed story.

My wonderful wife handles all our finances, so there's zero chance of sneaking purchases past her and I never would. She budgets for me to make 2 or 3 bigger gear orders a year. When I say I'm riding by the BPS, she understands that I'm picking up a few things. That has always worked fine for us. She fully supports my fishing and understands that I likely won't be around long when I can't fish anymore.

My condolences. Those days are indeed sad and tough.

Bank 1 - 3 hours. Summer nights 6 - 8 hours. Spring, Fall, & Winter I'm more comfortable and usually fish 6 - 12 hours. At 49 with a 100 year old jacked up back, my frequency is regulated by my pain.

Go get us a close up pic of that pond moster.

Excellent. Some form of soft body JBs are in my top 3 producers.

Nice. That girl gets around. I'll be on the lookout for her, I likem thick.

Here's a 17 lb 4oz caught out of Margery in 1990.

Excellent. Marben is a neat place and one of the ponds produced an 18.1 in 87.

Absolutely real.

Beavers don't hunt Bluegill😀. Dark + Boulder splash = Beaver

VMC Doulock on the three listed baits. My big hard swimbaits get Decoy snaps that are never unsnapped once in place.

Those fish you'll miss chasing will be bigger and waiting on you, once you've recovered. I was gonna offer to keep fresh gas in your boat but I'm in Ga..😁

Chicken breast marinated in Folgers Instant coffee, no need to add water. It'll look like strips of beef jerky.
