Bandits they seem to run truer out of the box.

I have had that for quite some time, believe me the antidotes work.

Newton will allow trolling motors only. As a matter of fact you can have a larger outboard on it but not use it.

Too funny, at least he had Beer!

Anytime you need to take up line quickly. Windy conditions, T-rigs and Jigs. I also like to use to burn spinner baits over weeds.

It's free take it!

The Giff said some kind words for his good friend Dandy at halftime MNF last night. You know your are getting old when you can remember that trio.

Rapala use to make a version of the Wally Diver called the Tail Dancer. This crankbait was a walleye catching machine.

His head, judging by the facial expressions he has lost a bit of his edge. It will come back a better part of his game is mental and his head is a bit out of the game. They will make the playoff even as a wildcard. He should have his edge back by then.

I have a Aqua Vu I use for ice fishing and it works well to see fish and structure. I tried it for open water but with out a deployment mount which is a must to hold the camera still. It does work even in off colored water but takes too much time working with it in open water.

Never found it again, boy that was potent stuff.

Three fingers of Makers Mark on the rocks took the chill out.

Mine was a Lazy Ike also. My Dad pulled it from his tackle box, on the bank, and gave it to me. He said I never had any luck with these maybe you will. I tied it casted it and after the 3rd cast I caught about a 10 inch LMB. All Dad could say is it figures.

I have used Megastrike on cranks working through grass. I add quite a bit to the hooks as a lubricate. It helps to work throught the grass much less grass pickup.

Best wishes Kelley, I know the pain you have gone though so this recovery will be a walk in the park for a tough ole coot like you. You will be in no time.

You are a BRAVE man!

I fish some Power Plant Cooling Lakes. During the summer these lakes will warm to as much as 108 degrees F on the Warm side and 88 degrees F on the cool side. I beleive the fish and fisherman adapt to this radical change. Of course the fish find cooler water and stay active so I am sure they will adapt.

The Merlot and Pinot Noir has been bottled last weekend. The Merlot was outstanding this year. The Pinot Noir is a bit on the Moonshine side. Not Whiskey but a bit POTENT. Maybe I sampled more then I can handle. Anyway some will be making the trip.

Sam Adams Octoberfest is great stuff, but I have found Becks Octoberfest to taste a little better... If you havent tried it yet give it a shot. Bud Light any mexican beer Bush/Bush Light Anything from Two Brother Brewing Fat Tire Magic Hat #9 Plenty more but I am having a brain fat... I have been very impressed with their offerings. Costco have a sampler 12 pack that I tried. I agree.

Interesting I have a White Stradic that has always done that. Not serious just slightly. One spool was better then the other. It spooled fine but after use it appeared to be worse. I will have to try this.

Can I introduce you to my wife. I found a bag on the counter in the laundry room last night that she forget to stash with a Coach purse in it. Maybe you can teach her how to shop. I really do not need a Coach purse. :

Also once you find them try a Shaky Head Lizard. Bass just hate them nosing around anywhere near a spawning area. This will continue to work into the spawn also.

Myself and Old Cranky are in. We have our cabin booked and will be there Saturday night for the wine tasting. Some of my homebrew will travel with us. One way only.

Gander Mountain and Dick's sometimes has exclusive colors with lure manufacturers. This may be the case, normally they will say on the package that they are exclusive colors for _______.
