Finally, a sane person!!! Thank You Mr. Senko!!!!! And now with E21 maybe "going down" where will your lifetime warranties go!?! Yes, if E21 goes down, carrot stix owners are screwed, but I have no idea where people are getting that E21 is going to crumble. Duckett leaves them and everyone assumes the companies about to declare bankruptcy

I have a black one that works well at night. I really prefer splash-its to ricos though.

CT Smallie: I wouldn't have picked orange either, bash them for how they look as much as you want, I completely understand, the aren't for everyone aesthetically speaking Muddy: Don't know what a centabo is? Dink: I had one break as well, I got it replaced under the warranty. GLXs are very brittle and have been known to break if you're not careful, yet nobody complains about them? As far as the guides, seriously, give me a break. On all the rods I have built, I've used fuji guides, but believe it or not, it is possible for other companies to make decent guides as well. People get in their head that if its not fuji, it sucks, this isn't the case. If you hated yours though, thats cool, at least you've used them, so many people bash products without having any experience with them first.

I find it sad that so many of you cannot accept that maybe for once somebody is actually making a decision for ethical, and not financial reasons. I'm not a naive person and I realize that money is the influence behind of a lot of decisions but how about we stop making assumptions until we have evidence to base those assumptions on. I'm not a Duckett fan in the least, and my decision to buy my carrot stix had nothing to do with his endorsement, but I think its depressing that our society can no longer accept that somebody might actually be a decent person. oh, and Cart... I like your new avatar ;D

You guys can bash them all you want. I wouldn't pay the new price of $200 for one but they are very competitive at the $150 price point IMO. I have two and I love both of them. They're sensitive for the price and they're ridiculously light. I don't care about the press they get (although I commend Duckett for doing what he thinks is right) they work perfectly well for me. How many of you guys that are bashing them actually own or have used one? 8-)

I'm a big taco bell fan (chalupas rock!) and I'm all for saving some cash but I find something about the concept of .49c tacos to be disturbing LOL. What additives and fillers do they have to put in there to be able to sell it that cheaply

No disrespect to "Wasczuk" but I highly doubt that he is drawing anywhere near the publicity for E21 that Duckett was. :-X

I've been using them on owner 4/0 twistlocks lately with good success. I also like 'em on a c-rig.

Wow, I'm really impressed with him. He seems to be a standup guy.

bizz, you dissapointed because they're all under 7" and don't weigh 3oz? ;D

The best: lucky craft pointers, hands down X-Raps are also good

Thats great LOL

It changes depending on the location and the time of year. For smallmouth, I'll put everything else down and pick up a pointer 100 in chartreuse shad and throw that the rest of the day. For largemouth, it really depends on the conditions but you can never go wrong flipping a jig.

I tried superglue but it actually made it worse, the water that got in there was harder to squeeze out. Haven't tried calk. I've just resorted to squeezing it out every few casts. They work well so I'm not going to complain too much.

Start throwing them in the early morning or late in the evening. They're great for finding fish and they're a blast to use. BZZZZZZZZZZZ... KABLOOSH!!! Gotta love it!

Hey guys, I'm going to Presque Isle from thursday to sunday with some guys in my club. Never been there before but I'm really excited to go! Any suggestions as far as lure choice and whatnot. We'll be fishing in the bay mostly but we might go after some main-lake smallies if the weather cooperates. Any suggestions. I'm thinking tubes and maybe some dropshot for the main lake, any ideas for the bay?

spinnerbaits with big, single colorado blade, lippless cranks, large plastics that displace a lot of water (10" power worm, brush hogs), jigs with rattles

Or you can have both

That is BS. Yeah, it should have been marked, but that doesn't change the fact that she's still a dumb@$$ for not paying attention to where she was going. Some people's inability to take responsibility for their own actions amazes me. Everyone is sue happy : Personally, if I walked into a man hole cover, I would find it highly amusing as long as I wasn't hurt.

-Definitely guilty of this. 60 - 70 mph in the dark is spooky even if you know where you're going. -I stick with certain baits too long sometimes when nothing's happening. Force feeding a fish is tough to do. -I fish the same spots a lot. I know everything about these spots but sometimes I need to go somewhere else and do something different. I'm hard-headed. Spooky? I would say freaking terrifying. You guys must have some serious cajones to run wide open at night! ;D

I use the word "probably" frequently. I am neither ignorant nor lazy. Superiority complex??? :
