  1. . Goose your intruding into my space. I had him down for a Calais DC , Conquest 100 & Conquest 50.
  2. The whole story is just getting more & more ugly. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/germanwings-co-pilots-home-town-stunned-as-health-details-emerge/ar-AAa6Eph?ocid=HPCDHP
  3. All sizes work. If your predominate bait is small minnows use the smaller size. If you have bigger bait fish use the regular size or the mag size. Try & match the forage size.
  4. My boat holds 52 gallon but the longest run I usually make is 40 miles round trip but that is not normal more like 20-25 round trip. I usually figure about 8-9 gallons per day and I try to fill up between 1/3 to 1/2 tank.
  5. If you do please share your thoughts. They look very interesting but when you can't get your hands on one without buying it first to make a decision you have to rely on someone else's input.
  6. Nice bass. I'm surprised you left Rodman.
  7. Latest update said the co-pilot had been suffering from depression since 2008. Under current regs pilots only go through mental checkup once before hiring but depending on age they have 6 month or 12 month physicals. I think after this tragedy the whole system will be changed. 149 dead people deserve a change for the better.
  8. Brian that smallie picture looks so big that you have Jeff looking over his shoulder.
  9. Lots of unanswered questions about missing planes & rogue pilots. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/alone-at-controls-co-pilot-sought-to-destroy-the-plane/ar-AAa1d9O?ocid=HPCDHP
  10. That color theory has caused me great financial distress. I almost always have to have duplicates of certain colors in hardbaits.
  11. I know both Mike & Robert personally and they both go out of their way to help people with fishing tackle and life in general. They are both outstanding individuals and provide great products. A top notch business and they really understand the sport of fishing.
  12. Nice bass Goose. I'm still trying to figure out how all your bass have such green backs & perfect white bellies. Really beautiful fish & never a mark on them except for your tag. I guess you never ever catch any ugly ones.
  13. Not to me. It balances right at the front edge of the foregrip with a shimano curado 200 I.
  14. Yes I got it but I haven't used it yet. Lake Erie is still ice covered and that's where I intend to get it broken in. First off it weighs 4 ounces on my Brecknell digital scale. The first two guides are double footed then seven single foot guides and the tiptop. The guide wraps & cork work look fine. The decal tape near the handle with the chartreuse wraps are a little sloppy but acceptable in this price range. It feels light in hand & balances right at the end of the foregrip with a curado 200 I. I'm anxious to put it to work.
  15. Three quality fish for the first outing is pretty good.
  16. Sounds like you guys did real well. Was the 5-2 your PB? If so congrats.
  17. I would have liked to have been there for the dunking. I think everybody that has done much bank fishing have felt that muddy side of a foot down the bank before. Nice fish too.
  18. . Free shopping with an order of three baits . I use them for the color selection .
  19. He is alive & well. Just going in a different direction temporarily. He is still fishing.
  20. 38-40-42 is all pretty close. In the fall dropping temps coming from higher temps is not the same as spring when the temps are coming from cold to warmer. I think metabolism reacts slower from cold to warmer than warm to colder. I have no scientific proof of that just observation.
  21. For me its 40 degrees.
