Spoonplugging by Buck Perry
JerryL makes some good points,but I disagree with his definition of "structure". I grew up with the explanation had only to do the bottom of the lake. (flat, dropoff, hump, depression, including man - made structures-bridge, rip rap). Cover is not structure. Cover would be weeds, stumps, docks,brushpile, tire, some old fridge etc. A leaning stump in a flat filled with vertical stumps is not "structure". I do agree that it's good to fish something where 2 different things abut each other (2 different weed types, chunk rock/gravel, etc.) but I could be wrong... I never tried his no-bo line, short stout rod,or trolled seriously, but I do still have his book and a couple of spoonplugs.

Custom Painted Baits
I think that too much detail is for the fisherman and not the fish. Don't get me wrong...I like a beautiful bait just like the next guy, but I don't think it's necessary. A lot of you have great painting skills and I would put them on the wall instead of the lake.

Dumb things you have done while fishing
About 5 yrs. ago I was fishing by myself, first time out for the year. (normally I have a friend with me on the first trip of the year) Anyways, windy (15+) high 40's, and only boat on the lake. I made a cast and was getting another rod rigged when a big gust hits and spinned me around and to make a short story long, my braided line got wrapped in my ob's prop. I tilted the motor full up and the prop is barely out of reach. The troll motor was useless in the wind, so I was at the mercy of the wind. Jumping into the water was really not an option. So while stretching to reach the line, I heard a couple of cracks. They were 2 of my ribs cracking over the transom. I got untangled though! Also hurt for a few weeks...

Manufacturers’ Listed Lure Weights
Ok Munkin..here you go. Pizza is round because it is the easiest / quickest shape, square boxes are easier to make and fold,and they are cut in triangles to divide in relatively equal pieces and easier to eat. Next!
