  1. I bought the 3/8 Black/Red with a red hook. I wont be able to make it back out until next weekend but i will definitely be going to by some more before then. Not only is it a good lure but its fun to throw and all you do is cast and retrieve, way too easy 8-).
  2. Just wanted to give some more good feedback on the Cavitron Buzzbait. I bought one last night from Dick's to see what all the hype was about, im glad i did. First impression was very good, the action and sound it gave off was unlike any other Buzzbait I've seen and it really is "The slowest Buzzbait". I hit the lake right before sun up around 5:45 and made my first cast around 6:05, by 6:15 i had already missed 2 fish! The first hit was the hardest i have ever experienced, it was so quite and all i was hearing were ducks and birds and i get the lure about 5-7 ft in front of me and BAM! It scared the crap out of me so i set the hook and jerked it right out ofhis mouth. Same thing happened 2 more times and by the fourth time I guess i was ready for it and i got a good hookset and landed the little guy in my avatar. I think im going to buy some trailer hooks next time so i don't miss as many. If you haven't tried the Cavitron Buzzbait i suggest you don't wait any longer.
  3. I use a Shimano Crucial CRC-X610MH for my Spinner/Buzzbaits.
  4. What baits do you plan on using with these rods? I use the CRC-70MH for Jigging and i use the CRC-X610MH for all of my T-Rigs and Buzz/Spinnerbaits.

    I feel bad for anyone who has never been to a Texas Roadhouse Restaurant and had the Fried Catfish. INCREDIBLE!
  6. x3. What kind of camera do you have, Micro? I have a Kodak EasySharez700 4.0 mega pixels.
  7. Perfect! Il be at the lake tomorrow directly across the street from basspro ;D.

    I found this in an old tackle box in the shed and i believe it belonged to my grandpa. There was nothing in it but some catfish bait that made me dry heave when i opened it, old line, some barrel swivels and this lure. I was curious to know a little more about it since i think it may be pretty old, can anyone help me out here?
  10. Suuuuuure :.
  11. Lately i haven't been able to get out there so when i cant fish, this is my fishing. Reading articles over and getting it crammed into my brain so when i do get out there i can put it to use. Reading up on everything so i can have maximum bass knowledge.
  12. Congratulations! Man, how did you go 2 months without anyone from Ford letting you know that your patience was for nothing? Oh well at least you got a badass new truck. I wanna see some pics!
  13. ! Lord help me, i cant wait to spend all of my money! I honestly cant remember the last time i was this excited about something ! ;D
  14. Holy crap.
  15. I have to wonder just how much extra $$ these municipalities are seeing. A city about 40 miles away installed these cameras last year. If memory serves, the city only sees about 30% of the fine. 30%? You would think if the city is the one running the cameras and issuing the tickets that they would see alot more than 30%. I dont doubt what your saying is true but only 30%.....
  16. You cant go wrong either way i dont think. I dont have an Avid nor have i ever fished with one but i do own a 7' MH/F Crucial and I'm definitely buying some more. The Crucial felt lighter than the Avid when i played with them both at BPS.
  17. I think it would be best if you started out a little slower but thats just my opinion. I would suggest reading some of the articles on the site to get started .
  18. Welcome to the forums and welcome to TEXAS! What part of Dallas are you in? im in the DFW area as well. I think your best bet would be to look at the top navigation bar on this page and click "fishing articles", read as many as you can. i would suggest starting with the 'For beginning anglers" article. Good luck.
  19. I was wondering why i hadn't been seeing any 60 lbs bass pics recently .Good luck with the truck situation, hope all goes well.
  20. I didn't hear him say anything about a ST Croix Avid, but i did hear him ask about a BPS rod or a Shimano Crucial :. I would definitely definitely go with the crucial, its a very nice rod at a good price.
  21. Welcome and congrats on your fish.
  22. 1 month ago tomorrow i received a ticket for running a red light which i didn't feel was fair. I was thinking of not paying it because it is a ticket from the city not from the police department and i didn't think anything would actually happen if i didn't. I decided to check it out on the website today since i had 1 more day to pay it and boy was i glad. "Failure to pay the civil penalty may result in the reporting to the Collection Agency and/or the County Assessor Collector or the Texas Department of Transportation who may refuse to register a motor vehicle alleged to have been involved in the violation." I logged into the website and was amazed as i watched a VIDEO of me CLEARLY running the red light which i thought i didn't run at all . Thanks to LBH i now hover my foot over the break when the light is "stale green" , maybe i should come drive for UPS ;D. Be safe and drive smart out on the roads so you don't have to pay people money. Oh yea also for that safety thing.
  23. I have never fished with a St Croix or a Carrot Stix but i do own a 7' MH/F Crucial and i love it. It has good sensitivity and its a strong rod. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the three.
  24. Im so hardcore i ONLY fish when winds are at a maximum of 5 mph and its 85 an sunny. These weather conditions are not for everyone so be careful.
