skunked_again

So when you say breaking on rock, are you talking about casting it up on some rocks on the bank or cranking it into rocks? i emailed rapala not long ago about busting the lips off their cranks and got this back: Thank you for your email and letting us know about your experiences with our lures. Rapala can make an indestructible lure that will never break but it will not have the action and unique construction that provides such great productivity. As you know, many factors cause lures to become damaged. Rocks, Weeds, certain Fishing Techniques, miss use, Line strength, drag, and bottom structures are some factors that cause lures to weaken or become damaged. Time and time again, when we test and study lures that have broken, the results show that some hindering factor had caused the lure to weaken. If you think your lure was defective and not damaged by other means as listed above, then here are some options for you to pick from: 1. Take the lure back to the store where you purchased it for refund or replacement. 2. Send the lure to us for replacement. ive quit buying Rapala baits all together. Thats why your name is Skunked Again and Mine's not heh..............if, IF im not catching fish like i caught fish with the DT's i might be forced to do things id rather not. im excited to see how other baits work.

i think ima dvr the seatle show. see what the head cheese is using for a boat these days.

ya, that bothered me when i heard that. monster trucks are a huge, powerful moving force in doors.

my opinion is buying a good battery from wal-mart is all you need enless you fish 7 days a week, 5 hours a day.

i was gunna say when i took mine out of the box the first thing that came to my mind is "this thing is black". after moving to the basement did i notice the reel is green. as long as it does what i want it can be hot pink in color.

mike iaconelli in my boat would be like mark martin in my car. that is sweet.

welcome back, i have a son and a daughter in afghanistan and cant wait for their return.

carp fishing is fun. touching the fish is whats not fun.

i dunno............. i like to drop shot lizards and fish hogs on the bottom. im not very good T-rigging either.

anyone watch this show? i get a kick out of it. just goes to show you never know where the fish are.

get the ultra soft, its much better.

i had an 884 savage, its a great boat. i would take the time to inspect the trailer. as far as coming off a plane way2slow has a great idea. nothing beats boat time though.

i wonder how hard it would be for daiwa, abu, shimano, so on to offer not just 6.3:1 in these reels. id love to see a 3.8:1, maybe a 4.5:1...

all star asr rods are nice and can be bought right.

congrads!

all i can say is thank god.

from what i understand he retired and wrote a book.........or wrote a book then retired.

i have many of the 5000 series reels and other than having to put 8 miles of line on them they work as well as the 4000 series.

i just won a 200E5 off ebay. didnt really have to have the reel but refused to let it go to some one else for $130. an a side note the DT-Sol is worth a look. its currently my fav, piece.

for $150? good deal? nevermind........lol

either. i would, if you can, go to someplace that stocks them and mount them on the rod they will live on and get an over all feel for them. i like the stx a lot but.....i have the high speed unit and that i dont like.

thats old school there. i fish with an older man on LOZ and all he had was a flasher and he put us on fish all day. course i assume it helps if you live there.

football head jig is how i use the bait most of the time. i love this bait.

if it was at one time a bass/fishing boat i might agree with you.
