  1. That fish definitely qualifies for bragging rights.
  2. Scott & Chris nailed it.
  3. Enjoy your retirement. I'm glad to see you got an ulterra as that piece of equipment will make your boating life a lot more comfortable.
  4. Interesting to note that the first four lines are all Japanese manufactures and their stated poundage most equals their actual breaking strength hence the smaller line diameters.
  5. Welcome back Terry. Your last post was the same year as I joined.
  6. Sweet! Who said jerk baits don't catch big fish?
  7. It's probably more like catch & release in big lakes & fisheries but take your limit of fish under 15" in ponds & small lakes where stunted fish are prevalent. Nature has a natural balance but smaller bodies of water most often need angler help to keep from getting out of wack. If an angler wants to keep a limit to eat that is their prerogative.
  8. Lake O in Florida would keep you busy.
  9. Yes you need 60 lbs. Under inflating a tire will cause heat build up. Speed kills drivers & heat kills tires. The more you inflate a tire up to the max the less flexing & subsequent heat build up you have.
  10. Not ideal but short term your spare would be ok just don't leave it on permanently. .
  11. X2 Disclaimer. I was in the tire business for 18 years. All trailer tires should be inflated to the maximum reading on the sidewall. Fill them when the tire is cold first thing before you run them any distance. Heat build up is what causes tires to fail. Maximum air pressure limits the tire from excessive flexing & keeps them running the coolest. Also maximum load capacity is always achieved at max pressure. Crestliner you want 60lbs psi for your tires. Glenn is right tires do have a shelf life and old tires with acceptable tread depth can still be dangerous.
  12. I just wanted to be incognito.
  13. Actually they are due on the 16th.
  14. Good. The Gambler line is very popular in Florida for bass.
  15. No it's a three hook model. Basically the same size as the rogue.
  16. I use them a lot. They will get down about 10-12’ on a cast with 10 lb braid and 15-17’ strolling with more line out. Very effective on suspended fish in deeper water. I have a rebel spoonbill minnow in clown that is lights out. Walks the dog under water in 180 degree swings. When it is hot it outfishes everything. Both baits will get you bit if you use them when the fish are deeper.
  17. Take a look at the Certate. It will scratch a lot of itches. http://japantackle.com/spinning-reels/daiwa/daiwa-16certate.html
  18. Ima flit 120 series available as a floater or suspender. Weighs 1/2 oz.
  19. J i was talking about me. 70 next week.
  20. The OP's location is Many, Louisiana not Ohio. OK tongue in cheek sarcasm.
  21. ??? Snow flea's.
