They are like most other batteries, take care of them and you don't have issues.

You forgot one option, flipping. In most smallmouth lakes I fish I'm pitching jigs (Heavy action, 30 pound braid) or dragging football jigs (17 pound fluoro). Even my PB smallie which is just under 5 pounds I flipped in the boat. The inside of a smallies' mouth is harder than that of a largemouth so the odds of ripping a hole in it on the flip is usually not going to happen. Knock on wood I have never lost a fish on the flip. If your going to loose a smallie, it will be one of the times it rockets out of the water 4' and head shakes. The only time I wouldn't flip them is when I have them on light line or on a treble hooed bait, I will grab them behind the head put them in the boat that way.

Very nice.

Snowden has a bad habit of blowing leads going into the final day, I know he did it a couple times in the Elite 50's tourney's a few years ago. This goes to show, even pro's get skunked, even KVD did it on the final day in a tourney in 2005 when he had the lead.

She beat you too. ;D

I like a da stretchy.

Nice pics Burley, I'm sure you'll whack em next time.

Just wait until April 6th. 8-)

1/4 straight black jig or a green pumpkin 4.75" finesse worm with a screw in it. Always gets the job done. 8-)

It works but I like the flukey's better because they have a slower fall rate. Plus 5 Strike King Z Too's that can catch 40 fish= $2.99 and 10 Yamamoto Senkos that can catch 12 or 13 fish=$6.99

The first tourney I finished 2nd out of 11 boats. Lost by .22 >

Sawdy Pond in Fall River 8-)

Drop offs in front of spawning coves, or structure such as stumps or rocks on humps close to where the bass winter in deeper water.

Congrats!!!!!

As long as it has an arrow-head type head design to come through cover easily and a quality hook I would fish with it. As for a trailer, I like a Buzzfrog or a Horny Toad because it makes decreases the fall rate of the jig and it moves some serious water. It is a bait year round for covering water because it can be fished a ton of different ways and the fish don't see it too often.

Power Worm in Red Shad for night fishing and immitating all the big eel's up here. 8-)

Either speed up while fishing with reaction baits so you can cover more water or slow down and downsize.

Nice fish, around 7 pounds.

Nice

Wolfenstein 3D for the PC, Goldeneye for N64, and Twisted Metal 2 for PS.

VERY hard to get the hang of. And like CJ said, a slow response.

In the words of Mr. V "Congrats to UNC, regular season champs" ;D

Lol, Hansbrough is going to be the color of Duke's away uniforms tomorrow. ;D

It will be mine one day.

Yup, those Carrot Stix come with a bad grip, a lack of customer service, and "attitude". It's like driving down the highway and throwing $150 out the window.
