This is the best way I have seen to do it for a club. It won't break the bank. But if you aren't looking for the basic fishing shirts you can try this company. http://www.fishingworld.com/proimageline/

Cangrats old man. I am happy for ya.

Why do you want to take the fish smell off. That's proof that you accually caught something.

And that's fishing in a nut shell.

If anyone is interested in those SC. (The red one next to the one sold out) Just go to that page and click on it. Then put it in your shopping cart and then look at the price of it in your cart. It should say 79.99.

I build rods with that blank and you have given me some good ideas.

Are those yellow EVA foam grips? They look goooooood.

Jeff, I own 2 Revo SC's, one SX, one STX and 6 Diawa HST's. You can't go wrong with any of them. But my opinion is that the Revo's will hold up better in the long run. I have already had to do $40 worth of repairs on two HTS's and will have to repair one more in a few weeks. All had the same problem with the drive nut stripping the main drive threads.

Here's mine. http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1157838825

I take steel wool to them right out of the package.

I have learned How hydrilla and other weeds grow. How bass use the weeds. That crawfish are everywhere and I can better match their color now. That there are more details to structure than we think. The list goes on and on, but those are the big ones for me.

I have a Revo on four of my Dobyns Rods and they all fit very tight.

I went through a list of 300 fish and their pictures and a Rio Grande is the only one that came close. There must be alot of tree huggers that live near the lake you fish. Because they have release alot of aquarium fish in your waters.

I've been diving for about 8 years. I took my classes when I was stationed in Hawaii. It is great. Now I use it to learn more about bass. It is a huge advantage.

When I build my rods they are allways spiral wrapped. I don't notice any difference in the MH or Heavy action rods, but when you get into the Medium and Medium Light rods there is a noticable difference when the rod is under stress.

I do the exat same thing that Bob does. I love it. I keep my gallon bags in a few small baskets in my boat. This helps to keep them from sliding around during rough rides.

In the army we called that staying alert. "Stay alert, Stay alive"

If you are fishing a river then the best place is slack water next to or near moveing water. Bass hold up in these places and ambush bait.

What's the water clarity and temp? What kind of lake is it? What part of the country are you fishing?

That looks like a Rio Grande Perch

Ya'll had way to much fun. Great video.

Joe, Thanks for sharing that. I totally agree. I grew up fishing small ponds and they are a great place for young fishermen to learn their tricks. There is a huge differance between small ponds and big lakes. But all that knoledge that I gathered on those farm ponds and public fishing areas have made the transition to big lakes that much easier.

That is great. The ol man is one of my favorite pro's. I have had the opportunity to talk to him and Dion several times and I always go away with a few more tricks up my sleeve.
