Lucky crafts are the most expensive I can remember.

Look at the contour of the lake above the water level. Take hills for example for flooded man made lakes. These follow down into the water. if you look at the way the hills flow you can picture the contour on the bottom. Like RW said a c-rig will help you learn how the contour flows. I use the above method first then move to the heavy jig/crig method.

Nicely done Speed!

I have that exact rod. I like these rods better then the Loomis BCR GLX rods. I'm up to 2 Xtremes. Both are awesome rods.

Never had LMB do that but I have had Whites. Congrats.

I rarely use 12. I usually throw 10 or 15. I would say yes its what I would use in most situations. Are you throwing a 7" worm or creature bait?

Green Pumpkin on a 1/4oz shakey head.

This is exactly what I was thinking. I did not think you could refuse legal tender.

I have had a Charbroil for a couple years. I liked it and just bought a new Char Broil Infered one. Its still in the box. LOL I cant help on the weber gas but if they are anything like their charcoal it will be one sweet grill.

I just released Tungsten Punch weights. http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/120314-tungsten-punch-rigs-new/ I use a 7'3" GLX. Same rod I use for Frogging and Flipping. You need a good stout rod and I recommend braid.

It will work but in my experience not all that great. The water needs to be cycled through once in awhile with new water. I did the same thing in my first jon boat years ago with an old metal cooler. You have to be real careful with circulation and watch the temp or the fish will die.

It sure is. Every jig sold out of the Storm series I donate a portion to Tackle the Storm Foundation. There is 7 jigs in this series designed by the mods. Here is the link. http://www.siebertoutdoors.com/index.php/storm-series

Thats the brand I was going to say.

I've never targeted bass with them but they do catch big bass while pike/musky fishing. They also catch dinks. LOL

Congrats and Nice pictures!

Very cool. Congrats

When I fish for long hours or its windy my eyes do the same thing. For me its from them drying out. Its even more pronounced now after having lasic. I carry eye drops with me and put drops in every few hrs or so. It helps and since i've been doing this I do not have near the problems.

Bump up the heat a little more. I had that same issue at 350. I bumped it to 400 and the problem went away. Some tight crevices will always be real hard to coat.

Do any of you run the viewable oil hubs or is everyone using the standard grease hubs. I need to replace some of mine and am looking to go with oil type.

Now thats cool!

Wow, Thats great!

Good to hear!!!

I have an arky I'll sell. Makes 1/4-3/8-1/2. Its one of the most popular head designs.

Its more like a chatter bait. I also marked down the Fogy blade which is even closer to a chatter but has a football head. It has awesome vibration.

This really depends on the spot. If its open water. Not long at all. I pretty much stay moving after each cast. If its grass, brush, points, etc I'll give it approx 10-15 casts. If I catch fish I'll stay. If not I move.
