T rig is short for Texas rig. to get you started: http://www.bassresource.com/beginner/Texas_Rig.html do some searching (on here and google) and you will find A LOT more info.

wow i have three packs of these and i have NEVER used them....i need to....

for texrigging weedlines, *** 7" Hookup, red shad, junebug, or green pumpkin.

......really dan?...........uncalled for....... : ;D

well the 4 inch shad has a great swimming action! i was very pleased with it. its got a real aggressive, zig-zagging, searching/fleeing action on the retrieve. it wakes the surface very nicely. on the puase it sinks about 1 foot per second and when twitched has a really good injured look. sorry for this crappy video, photobucket made it worse, but it shows the zig-zagging nicely fish approved

went out on St. Mary's lake with my dad this evening. i started out dropping an anaconda around fallen trees and tossing a spinnerbait all over the place. dad had on a DT6 and was casting it in the creek channel and getting frustrated with weeds. we moved up the creek into real shallow water and he snagged a nice red ear sunfish on the crankbait. it was about this time i decided to try out the action on my most recent bait (4", two piece shad). i was very pleased with the swimming action on it. on the retrieve it has an aggressive zig zagging action, and wakes the surface very nicely. at rest it slowly sinks a little slower than 1 foot per second. it has a nice injured look when twitched. here are some videos of the action, the second one is dark (photobucket really darkened it) but it shows the action best. after a few minutes of fishing the swimbait, i was waking it under the surface out in open water (over the channel in the creek) and then i killed it, let it sink a little bit, twitched it once or twice, and then i saw a bass come and just slam it. it was really cool! i continued to fish that lure for a long time, mainly because i like to watch it swim i had two fish swipe at it (didn't commit, don't think they even made contact with it), and then later in the night my dad and i were having a conversation about songs pertaining to drugs, and i was just relaxed, looking at the water next to me, and reeling in really slowly when a bass slammed the swimbait, and i (not paying a lick of attention to the fishing) freaked out and jerked the bait away oh well, i was happy that the fish were hitting on the bait. dad tied on a baby torpedo and on his first cast, he casted right up to the bank, under overhanging shrubbery, and twitched the bait once and then a bass came up and sucked the lure down he was pretty happy about that. he didn't get anymore fish the rest of the night once it started getting dark i tied on a popper (river2sea bubble pop or something...) and on my first cast, i casted right to the edge of some tall marsh grass, and probably 1-2 seconds after the bait landed, a bass sucked it down! didn't even get to twitch the bait. the bass wasn't to big (biggest of the night though), but put up a GREAT fight. (dad tellin jokes before he takes the picture.... :) i continued fishing the popper and by this time dad had on a DT01 and was waking the surface with it. he got one swipe but no takers. i hooked one small bass on the popper, but quickly lost it. later once it was dark i casted towards the grass again, and i got a backlash, so i let my bait sit in the water and just as i go to start picking out the backlash, i heard a nice splash, and i knew the fish took my popper, so i had to reel the fish in ontop of my backlash. caught the fish and got the backlash out next cast

Opeth is pretty good. i'm not a fan of how long their songs are though lol.

looks like they MIGHT have a chance at tangled, but they might not. i should have spaced them out a little more, but i wanted to concentrate the weight as far to the rear as i could get away with. lol its not like it makes any difference, i'll probably never end up using this stupid little thing ;D

this helped me, http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1248137420

oh ok.....it was bugging me that i couldn't figure it out lol.

rage tail anacondas have little eyes on the top of their head, lol ;D

what are the four dimensions? length, width, height and what else? the pics look pretty cool though, congrats!

here in maryland "...it is unlawful to introduce any fish species except bluegill sunfish, golden shiner, fathead minnow, channel catfish, and bait fish on a hook for the purpose of angling without written approval of the Freshwater Fisheries Division". -- straight from the handbook. a while ago my friend and i found a nice little isolated pond in the woods. it didn't have any fish in it, so we stocked it with a bunch of bluegills from the local park (the park has an overabundance of bluegills, and we stocked it over several trips, staying within legal limits each time). then we decided we wanted bass in there but i wasn't sure if it was legal, so i looked up someone i could email to ask them about it on maryland dnr's website, and i sent the guy an email asking if it was legal to transport live bass and put them in a private pond. he said it was fine as long as they were legal size and we had the legal limit.

good post bob

sure is lol. my stainless steel wire was making the bait sit too low in the water, so i just used hook eyes as the hook hangers. if i was making the bait for myself, i would have only put one hook hanger on it, but my friend wanted two.

oh man this reminds me of the Pepsi Blue that came out for a while a few years ago. it was only out for what seemed like one summer. that stuff was good! i never heard of Crystal Pepsi though.

not quite, muddy, now if i had said heavy metal/singer, that'd be an oxymoron ;D

lol micro-popper = 1"

i have only heard of behemoth, between the buried and me, and i may have heard of pig destroyer. i find that most of these metal bands with terrible names (see above lol) have equally terrible music. no variety within their songs. each song sounds like the same riff constantly repated. i don't like that. too one dimensional for me. also their vocalists aren't worth poop. not saying this is the case for the bands you listed because i haven't heard any of their music, i'm just saying i find this is the case with a lot of metal bands that you don' t hear much about.

oh ok, thats their greatest hits album (one of them at least...) my dad has this one. i think its funny your dad made you throw it away ;D

freshwater marine biology = contradictory lol

creole oh ok. never heard that term before. I am also a metal fan. IMO Tool is the best band ever. But my average metal intake is waaaaaaay heavier than Tool. It's actually a lot heavier than Pantera. What is your metal? lamb of god, metallica, pantera, children of bodom, arch enemy, slayer, in flames, are some of my favorites.

I had the Sabbath Bloody Sabbath cassette when I was about 9 yrs old. I listened to that tape at night to go to sleep, until I started having horrible nightmares. My dad made me throw it away when I started waking up screaming and my brother started sleep walking. thats hardcore lol. sabbath bloody sabbath is by far my least favorite sabbath album (out of the ones that i have, i have their first 6 albums, they got sucky selloutish after that). the song sabbath bloody sabbath is great, but the album as a whole is a thumbs down. i like sabbath a lot, but i don't like ozzy's solo work. however, suicide solution is definitley my favorite ozzy song its a great song, not worth killing yourself over though :-/ ;D

i have a Far Side book around here somewhere. i can't remember which one it is, its got a blue cover and people walking out of jars on the front, lol.
