I wish i could detect a bite too soon.

A 3 legged dog siddles up to the western bar and proclaims..i 'm looking for the guy that shot my paw!

I see the mold w/hook sizes, are they 1/4,3/8,1/2 oz. ? Can/ do you make a 3/4 and 1 oz.? I sure would like to test some for you if you needed a michigan perspective.

Bayliner made a funny looking bass boat back in the 70's. I have seen more than 1, but not in the last 30 yrs.

pic?

weightless trig.

Maybe JM buys them, and then discontinues the product line because xxx already has a product nearly exact to them.

The future tournament bass fisherman: Arrives to the lake in his autonomous (?) electric 4x4, which also self - parks. Time to launch the boat, a very easy one man job. You get in the boats driving seat and press your button and the truck backs you in and then goes and parks itself. There will be no more "blast - offs" as we know them today. Instead everyone stays on shore watching their laptop for 2 hrs. until their drone is back from it's mission to find places to start fishing. The pro enters his waypoint and as the electric outboard hums him to the spot, he can focus on getting baits tied on. No need to drive, the boat is also auto driven. He gets to the fishing spot and lowers his t/m into the water. Yeah, it does that by itself too. His fish finder is real. It is actual live video, with a 50' 360 degree veiwing capability under any light or water color condition. Baits will be pretty similar to what they are now, but before a cast is made, the angler must spray the water with some concoction that triggers a feeding frenzy. You make your cast, you catch a fish. After unhooking, you lower a probe down the fish's mouth, and it can tell what it ate last, and somehow can tell you how many other bass are likely to bite within a 20 yard radius in the next 10 minutes. (yes, it can do that.)Tournaments won't be won by heaviest weight alone. In fact, weight will be 1/3 of your "score". The number of casts it took to catch 5 keepers, and the time to catch 5 keepers will take the other 2/3. Feel free to add your own crap to this as i am tired of it .?

Google boat parts, you will have alot to choose from.

P.S.: i am glad that i like them 'cause i bought 100 of them divided into 6 diff. colors.

Was my fave until this year. I would cut and re-glue the tail so it would be upright (or natural). I have a couple of buddies that had a mold made that i got to try yesterday, and they are great for 3/8 oz. and heavier heads.

I have fished for over 50 years and saw 2 gals fishing together only once. Never seen one by herself. My wife use to fish with me, got tired of whupping me, so now she'll just catch rays and read a book..?

16" deep v with a 60 hp at least 10 yrs. old.

Oh, alrighty then. My bad.

Yes.

It didn't like you.

I never really looked at this forum, but it seems James doesn't answer anyones question.

Could you not practice lockdown by fishing by yourself?

If you wanted to go light, i would use a spider slider head in 1/8 or 1/4 oz. with a 2-4" twister tail, 4' worm or fluke. You could carry all you need in your pockets. If you want to catch bass only, i agree with a weightless t-rig 4" senko .

Stay outta my box...

RW...please quit posting old videos of yourself. You do not look like that anymore.

Nice budget for one ds rig. You could buy my 2 ds rigs and the braid to go with them for less.

I have never seen them in person, but i would think you could shape some plastic to fit and epoxy them in...

I use Spro barrel swivels on 2 of my spinning rigs (dropshot and senko rods). I first tried really small ones until 1 time i knocked the insert out of the rod tip. Now i use bigger ones that cannot go thru the tip. (although if you "crash" the tip it could still happen.) I haven't thrown an in-line spinner for decades, but if i were to, i would use a sampo b.b. swivel. Leader length may make a difference depending on lure weight, or maybe not, that's for you to figure out. A Mepps agaila #0 undressed was the first lure i ever bought.

If i were a shore - only fisherperson, i would consider this. All those pockets you wouldn't need to carry a tacklebox. Plus, i would look special...
