  1. Bait monkey gave up on me years ago, although he calls every once in awhile just to say hi. Bfs he said. I told him no, I've got spinning rigs that work better. He hung - up on me!
  2. I thought we were supposed to stretch senkos to "activate" them. Hmm...
  3. Sorry Clayton, may peace be with you and your family.
  4. Try not to be discouraged when having a tough time getting bit. (easier said than done)
  5. Go with led's with back-up lights and thank me later.
  6. All my lures work for smallish bass...heh heh...haven't caught one over 17" yet this year.
  7. Greetings from Livonia. This is a great website, you will enjoy it.
  8. yikes.
  9. We moved mom into assisted living this week, which means she didn't have to go to a nursing home. Getting stronger, but still limited to thickened liquids and whipped food. What is bothering her the most is being unable to speak (or write for that matter). Speech therapy coming, but swollen brain is forcing them to wait. She does understand things and can let us know yes or no. I wanted to thank you all through private message, but it would take too long. So, thank you aj,volzfan,catt,green pig,flatcreek,log catcher,mike l, 12#bass,ditch panda,unk,t/r46, bird, dwight,hammer,jig fishin,j.milburn,sam,slonezp,schplurg,n. fla.mike,bankbeater,tbilly,chris cat.,griver i appreciate your prayers and well wishes. I think it's working!
  10. My idea was just for aesthetics, i aint that smart Bird,,,?
  11. Take a hammer and bash the other pontoon to match. (kidding)
  12. Bend the tip of the blade up a little - it'll spin.
  13. I still use my old double -sided satchel Plano from the late 70's or 80's, it holds all the hard baits i need. Spinnerbait, worm, fluke/senko, and dropshot have their own binder. 2 waterproof 360's for terminal stuff.
  14. Finally able to see mom today, first time in 12 days. The moved her to a rehab facility last evening. Still unable to speak, but is moving both arms. She can only swallow the thickness of honey, and i witnessed her eat 5 bites of "turkey, mashed potatoes,yams,"and half of her applesauce. I didn't know what to expect when i first got there, but she got out of bed by herself, and we had a tearful hug. ? Things are looking better than i expected, and i think all the prayers and well- wishing are helping. It's gonna be a long recovery process...i hope she's up for it.
  15. If one is not available, take it to a local fab shop and maybe they could make you one.
  16. To catch as many weeds as possible... They liked the head design, but needed that special hook.
  17. Yes, remove the ring first.
  18. Don't force it. If you can't get bit throwing a spinnerbait, my advice is to quit throwing it. Who says you have to?
  19. Thanks Mike and everyone. The last 2 days showing little improvement, but at least she is not getting worse. They said she will need to go to another facility for rehab for 2-3 wks.
  20. Deephaven: Shaq says you have baby feet. I heard he's a 28!!
  21. Maybe it's time for the pro-organizations require to wear whenever in the boat, not just under main power. Trickle-down effect?
  22. Clear spray lacquer maybe, or high gloss paint (eliminate clear)?
  23. i tried it a couple years ago and although i liked the look, it flew out after the 5th cast, and never bothered again. May try again when i get bored. I used a screwlock screw, not like zmans.
