Don't forget the best hollow body frog

[jbmaine]

When asking which is the best fish finder, everyone says theirs is ( that's kind of a tease because they'll never give it to you).

 

Universal answers

Is the screen on my fish finder big enough--- NO!

Do I need more rods and reels---YES!

Do I need more tackle-----YES!

Does my boat go fast enough----NO!

Should I buy this---- NO!, buy the more expensive one!

Do I need a bigger tow vehicle---- YES!

I use the ground presentation to catch squirrels. It is, admittedly, difficult to revive them for release after I've run them over.

Funny this thread got resurrected.  It was meant to be tongue in cheek, obviously.   However, not mentioning the Bait Monkey sure got him stirred up.

[Jaderose]

Left handed or Right Handed Reels.  Which is best and why are you wrong?

[OperationEagle]

Just bought all three flavors of MegaStrike.  Do scents work? 

 

 

 

 

Wait...Oh my God they just added "Squid" as a new flavor!...

 

EDIT: Just bought all three FOUR flavors of MegaStrike.

You forgot to mention that rods just defect and break all by themselves without any help from the user.

So just today I was playing with new rod in the yard when I noticed the barn cat was stalking my jig as I was dragging it along the driveway.  Not wanting to hook her, I whipped the jig back in and hit myself right in the wedding tackle.  That cat better catch a lot of mice this year.....

You missed out, a panicked cat can pull a lot of drag in a hurry. Invest in some good leather gloves (preferably that go to the elbow, or cover your entire body), and some long handled pliers. I prefer something with treble hooks because of a cats tendency to swat at a bait, I find them difficult to hook on single hooked baits.

The forum rules and FAQ's are your friend on questions like this,

 

Why does the site or product name I posted show up as "another site" or as ***?
First it has nothing to do with competition. In most cases, it has something to do with the bullet point above - site owners not abiding by the rules of the forum, or over-zealous pro-staffers spamming the forums. In some cases, however, the site owner specifically requested that we do not link to their site.
