  1. Dynamite? Seriously, try a small grub and spinner blade cobo fished a slow as you can (while maintaining the blade's action) - throw it past her and bring it right in front of her.
  2. Any good charger with an auto shutoff will suffice; remember that trickle charging (around 2 AMPS) will help maintain your batteries condition better than a quick charge. I have seen suitable chargers in walmart but you could check Napa, Autozone etc
  3. The ribbit wins hands down for me! Especially now they have a high floater. You forgot to add the zoom horny toad and Manns hardnose both of which would also make an excellent choice.
  4. Yamaha Starting Sequence 1. Put in the drain plug!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-[ 2.Connect fuel line to outboard. 3. Squeeze the fuel line bulb twice. 4. Hold up the choke switch and turn the key. 5. She usually catches on the second chug, at which point i let go of the choke switch. 6. I let her idle away for three or four minutes while my buddy parks the truck and trailer. 7. Haul ***!
  5. The Ribbit frog is excellent; fish it reasonably quickly across the top of the water, cast it right upto the bank and those feet will make a wonderful sloshing noise that bass can't resist. You can also fish it slower, allowing it to sink between good strong pulls, this will mimic a wounded/dying frog.
  6. Tifosi are excellent value for money as are Cebe. Revo are the best but you'll pay $$$$$$$$ for them!
  7. Wave-worms tiki stick - I like the 5" Watermelon Black Flake chartreuse tip. Second choice would be a ribbit frog.
  8. Horny toad is a good idea, you could try a ribbit high floater also. A small Booyah pond magic would work well. Try a baby brush hog fished weightless & weedless also.
  9. Rapala Skitter Pop or Skitter Prop Smaller sizes of Mirrolure Rebel Crickhopper Popper
  10. Good vid, I'll give the wide gape tip about putting the point just under the skin a try! I'd always just buried the point in the middle of the d**n worm. If you feel like doing another video, I'd like to see the best way to rig a ribbit or Zoom Horny Toad type bait.
  11. Cristalina Crippled Shad
  12. No better place to learn than on the water; try joining a local club and fishing a tournament or two. Some-times you'll get in as a non boater, go ahead and watch the other guys.
  13. Big D? or a Fat S??
  14. Try either a ribbit frog or a rebel hopper topwater, failing that maybe a fly - streamer or popper.
  15. Bill is great but.................I hate Orange!! Roll Tide!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  16. Thunderstorms........................or Wind!

    for the south, get some frog toggs
  18. I love my costas - I have deep blues with blue mirror glass lenses $250. My favourites are my Revo's but they are discontinued now so I can't get a replacement lens, the H20 Lenses are awesome!
  19. You can check out some of the UK's carp fishing magazines such as bigcarpmagazine.co.uk or carp-addict.com; the fish over here in the US are a lot less wary than those in the UK so you needn't worry about the more technical type rigs used, but you'll see the multitude of baits and tackle used. My favourites are boilies, corn, a good hookful of worms, or dogbiscuits fished weightless (you'll need to get them feeding on them first, may take a couple of trips to get them going). I use an 11' rod with a 2lb test curve and 12lb mono (cajun) along with a light braid leader.
  20. Glad I bought an aluminium boat with a 40 yamaha! When gas hits $9 gal in 5 years time then I'll worry about it. The day of the 5 litre truck it coming to an end!!
  21. Try a 1/0 hook with a piece of dry dog food (kibble) glued to it's shank, fished weightless throw a handfull out there first to see if you get any interest. If he takes it, hang on!! Pound for pound they are one of the best fighting fish I have ever caught. Don't suppose you've ever heard of hair rigs and boilies??
  22. too many could be a bad thing; their diet consists mainly of small invertebrates as well as fish fry, competition for young bass.
  23. Looking at everyone's replies, looks like my progressive insurance is a little high! close to 200 bucks for a 15 year old boat with a 40hp yamaha!
  24. Neither, go get a Skeeter
