  1. white crappie. the markings vaguely make out bars. on a black crappie they would just be random, and a lot darker. its not unusual for crappies to take on a yellow color, specially black crappies.
  2. keep at it is all i gotta say..... :-/
  3. if i had to do this, i would try 3 things first, not sure if any of them will work... sally hansen's hard as nails krylon clear acrylic spray krylon clear enamel spray
  4. looks kinda cool!
  5. Marty, i was gonna PM this but i figured other people might benefit if i posted it. the other day you suggested i paint and clear my swimbait pieces before i assemble the bait to eliminate the need to clear epoxy out of the joints. i want to do this but i have a few questions about possible problems. first, i think i would have a tough time getting the colors to match up and fade the same way on all the pieces, seeing as i'm using spray cans and paintbrushes. is there a way i could temporarily assemble the bait so that i can paint it "as one" so the colors all match? secondly, when its time to clearcoat the pieces, how do i hold them? also, how do you keep the pre drilled holes for hook hangers and such from getting filled in with the clearcoat?
  6. on most rapalas, the letter is an abbreviation for the model (F for floater) and the number is how many centimeters long the bait is (11 cm long)
  7. love this movie! its so dorky and awesome! ;D
  8. yeah i've cut my hands pulling snags with braid and even setting the hook (i put my index finger under the level wind), but never flipping. when i flip i hold my rod in my right hand and i hold the bait by the hook shank in my left hand. i don't hold the line above the lure in my left hand because that seems like i'm just asking to get hooked...
  9. i've had success with the Bandit Footloose, and although i haven't caught any fish on them yet (haven't fished them much), rapala DT 01's have a really wide wobble and should do pretty well...
  10. these H2O swimbaits look worth checking out. if i had an academy around, i'd definitley buy one!
  11. my local disk C is 177 GB total space, with 23.0 GB free space. should i try clearing it out?
  12. beat it....with some assistance from youtube... :
  13. the game should end when you get the knife because you can use it to cut through the legs of the plastic chair and get out of the room..... unless the door is locked, i haven't got that far lol :-/
  14. x2 how are you guys getting cuts from flipping??? :-?
  15. lol, that's what I always say. Non-conformists just end up conforming to something else....They like to point out that sort of stuff with the goth kids on South Park. love it ;D
  16. i got a vial w/ a skeleton key, two button-cell batteries, and a folded piece of paper.....i give up :-[
  17. i've played it for about 7 seconds and its friggin' awesome!!! i'll come back in 20 min and let you know what i think of it then.... :-/ ;D
  18. wow how many times are you gonna post this??? just give it time and the fish will come......
  19. no marty i haven't. i think i might try that next time. how would i temporarily assemble the bait for painting so that the way the colors fade is consistent on each piece (if that makes sense)?
  20. been here a few times in the past month or two but haven't been posting... notable fish: 4lb 0oz, DT6 (couple weeks ago) 4lbs 6oz, DT10 (couple hours ago ) swimming away
  21. its an XP and its a few years old. i told my dad i want to save all my music and other important things and do a full system restore on this thing to make it brand new but we haven't really got around to it. the message popped up earlier:
  22. ok my computer has been really slow for a while now and just about every day (sometimes a few times a day) i get a message in the bottom right (by the clock) that pops up and says 'windows is low on virtual memory and has to make more space ' or something to that effect. next time it pops up i'lll pring screen it and post it here. anyway, why is this happening and how do i fix it???
  23. thanks guys the paintjobs are similar, the 2 piece had white undercoat, metallic silver sides, and gloss black back, but this one just has a white undercoat and then i sprayed wrought iron black over the back so it faded down. simple paintjob but i like the way it looks
