  1. Rumor has it if i pick up a mold i'm selling them dirt cheap...knock out the big guys. Ain't no plastic lure worth $20 in a small pack...sorry that's robbery.
  2. I don't like that big rocker block on the bottom of it...it's been said you can miss fish dued to pulling it out of it's mouth too early.If you look around you can find them on sale from time to time. I got them for $5 per 2 pack awhile back @ BPS.
  3. I've seen quite a few books in book stores about bass fishing....i know it's like $20 but it reveals so much stuff of how to and why.It will up your knowledge of lures,techniques and bass behaviors themselves.I wish i could remember the name of this book but i can't now.I saw it at Barnes and noble.
  4. I haven't had a problem with XT and still use it.If you still have line left after 3 years you ain't fishing enough. I go through a small spool of line every 6 months.Tie and retie often...stuff ain't the most abrasion resistance but with proper caution you won't have problems.I think this goes with all lines out there. I stay away from mono line in clearance bins...that right there tells me the line was probably sitting on the shelf too long and now they gotta get rid of it fast.
  5. "on sale" ;D I think i buy more stuff and spend more money when i find those words instead of regular price items.I'm just glad nobody puts "everything's on sale" or we'd have a big problem.
  6. I fish jigs most of the time now...ao baitcaster gets the job done better for me.However when i want to go inline spinner light i have a cheap trusty spinning reel.
  7. same here...but i've been doubling up on the slots....i need another plano box soon.If you use a jig,do not put it back in the box till it's dried up. I try not to put any lures back in the box wet...just a precaution i take.
  8. I'm saying around 5 1/2 give or take a few oz. Looks very close to brokejew's fish. That's still something to be proud of. Northern bass have smaller mouths compared to a southern bass....so just because you can't fit your fist in their mouth doesn't mean it ain't 6 pounds.I go by width and girth.I rarely take pictures anymore...but i always have a ruler handy...that gives me a close estimate of the weight. i really do need to invest in a scale...but right now my money's going to other things i rather have.
  9. I can't stop laughing...this shows how women own us.
  10. Just part of life...being scared.Once you become a father you start to pull away from all the partying and start doing more family things. You'll be fine,just read up on some things and go to the doctor with your wife as much as you can.Those trips will really help because you can ask the doctor anything and they will be willing to help as much as they can.Plus like another member here,you won't get screwed on doing all the housework.You'll know what's safe for your wife to do during pregnancy.
  11. Winter is gonna be bad....really bad for me.Bass season is closed as well. My girl is starting to complain at all the "junk" i have in the spare bedroom now.I'm gonna make an entire wall for strickly "my fishing stuff".
  12. robo gill? man i need one of those...just for entertainment...and just might teach my cats to keep their paws out of my aquarium.
  13. You got a big pair man....i'm terrorified of snakes.
  14. welcome to the club...i can't find em either. ;D I've been told if you ain't catching them...they are inactive or just simply not there.
  15. Green pumpkin PJ's jig and trailer 3/8oz T-rig 1/4 oz ugly otter black or green pumpkin(gambler's baits) brown 3/8 skirtless G-man jig with sabertail from berkley(my favorite smallie bait) T-rig 3/8 oz with a tequila sunrise powerworm.
  16. Walter's my man...Walter is my favorite character he does...I wonder how i'm gonna be when i get old sometimes.
  17. I use the Fuji EZ Keeper Hook Keeper..and if it's treble hooks i have a cover for those treble hooks from jann's netcraft..so i cover up any exposed hooks...works great.
  18. I go by lip sizes....otherwise i have no clue myself.I made the same mistake starting out mixing them all together.Some of them i don't know who they are made by...so trying to figure it out is no help.
  19. http://cbshawgsauce.com good stuff...
  20. I know how you feel avid.We have the off seasons here as well.So i know how it feels to not fish for awhile.
  21. Roses or dinner will do the trick. That's what I have to do. Or give her money to go shoe shopping! 8-) Exactly what i did....money to go shopping.And taking the family out to toledo zoo tomorrow.
  22. My biggest problem with them is trying to make somebody pay for something they didn't order or ask for...I never did receive my mag. which started this whole mess....I sent one of the bass books back(19.99 one) which they claim i never did...and now they were trying to bill me for it. All they want is in your wallet... I know a few guys going after NAFC for harassment in lawsuits now because of that.
  23. If you go to the local cabela's store they are always in the sale bin..I got a few of them myself.They make awesome trailers.
  24. ;D well she did notice some money out of the bank yesterday...i think she's on to me.
  25. The mad from my girl as some baits arrived to the door. I thought she was suppose to go to work today but she "slept" through the alarm.So she was here when the mail carrier came to the door Boy i hope the other 2 packages come when she ain't around.... I hate to find out what might happen to me....
