I've got 20 green Bantam Curado's 200/200B's. Like everything the same...lol.

I've had a couple Moss Boss's for ??? 30 years. Don't know if I've ever tried them...lol. Never too late to try. I've got the Steely Dan box set!!! It's great. I've still got and occasionally use the Fliptail Lizard. Big floating lizard that really is unique compared to newer lizards.

Until tournaments start paying 500,00 to the winner and have no entree fees, it's probably not worth it monetarily for pro's anymore.

It's about the only fishing I watch..tournaments that is. I enjoy the competition and find it compelling sometimes, if it's close at the end. I have my DVR set up for BASS/MLF/Cups etc.. and watch them when I want. Fast forward is great for ALL sports....lol.

On LPOL under blades, look for Bob Torman Bear Valley blades. They are kind of a cross between Indiana/Colorado. #4 is my favorite for 1/2 oz but use #3 and #5 also. They are the same as Stanley's older Vibrashaft spinnerbait's blades and Picasso uses them on their Night Time spinnerbaits. Picasso also built me some with double Indiana/Thumper blade, which looks just like the Bob Torman Bear Valley. Very nice of them.

Unfortunately it will take about as much money to fish 9 Opens as it would to fish the Elites. Fishing for less than half the winnings. Who the heck is going to sponsor an Open angler with any substantial money?? The cynic in me thinks it has a lot to do with eliminating anglers from crossing over from MLF and winning on the BASS stage.

Kind of didn't ask one..did I??lol. Has anyone else had this problem with deep cup blades? Used for the smaller blade. Maybe it's a spacing issue? Did seem to rotate better once I made it more flat. Won't use them again though.

OK I have a question about something that's bugging me...lol. Have been making spinnerbaits this year..or assembling them. Started trying to use deep cup#2 and #3 for my second blade. These things just don't work for the smaller second blade. No big deal but I had to flatten the cup part to get the right rotation. Don't really use deep cup for my main blade unless I want less thump and tighter spin. That's it

It's worth 25$ to me. Let me know...

1/2 oz Stanley vibrashaft double Colorado. The old one ,,, not the new one. The old one had tear drop/Indiana type wedge blade. Feels better than any spinnerbait I’ve used. Of course they quit making it... lol

Take all but one of the brake collars off and see if the noise stops. If so clean inside rim of color and little post’s that the brake collars slide on. Been through this with my Curados.
