  1. After Robert's trip the dove population is 45.5 million. Ask him for some photo proof.
  2. I would say they did pretty good. Short & sweet works best when they are little.
  3. My guess is 1.75lb. If you buy a scale you will never have to guess again.
  4. Quick answer on bigger lakes once turnover starts it takes at least a week for things to stabilize. Some times more.
  5. Beautiful build Scott. What blank & guides did you choose to use?
  6. The cumara rods are all discontinued. Shimano is supposed to be bringing out a new cumara line to replace the discontinued line, per Bantam1..
  7. I expected a totally different answer from you!
  8. Jerkbaits. Mix up the retrieve sometimes fast & sometimes slow.
  9. X2 or you can use a small crosslock snap for quick lure changes.
  10. Quote from tackle tour. Not a purchase but joining forces. Introduction: More and more reel manufacturers are now joining forces with lure manufacturers to offer a complete spectrum of tackle to anglers and this morning Shimano broke the news of a sales, marketing, and distribution agreement with Jackall Lures
  11. Very poignant video. Thanks for posting.
  12. When I was a kid the only time I could fish was when my dad was available evenings or Sundays. We lived near a private lake that had rowboats only. In order to get my mom to let me fish by myself down at the lake I had to prove I could swim well. I swam across the lake about half a mile accompanied by a buddy in a rowboat and my mom trusted my abilities after that.
  13. Welcome from NW PA. Your not to far from the big smallie pond.
  14. Welcome back Red.
  15. U-40 cork seal. Apply it to a new rod or clean a dirty cork then apply after drying. Cabela's sells it and so rod builder retailers.
  16. Kent you could include the keys as well.
  17. Here you go. The 50 is on the bottom & the 100 on the top. 50 is 6.2:1 ratio & the 100 is 5.8:1. 50 weighs 205 g & the 100 weighs 225 g. 50 holds 80y of 10lb & the 100 holds 135y of 10lb .
  18. The cumara line is discontinued.
  19. A-Jay calm down, just look at the big smallie in your avatar & a wave of happiness will cover you like a blanket.
