Hello (again) and Welcome Back to BR ~ A-Jay

No one cares what I'm eating. What the heck is that kid munching on daily that helps him put up 7 bills like it's chump change ? A-Jay

This about covers it ~ A-Jay

If you're fishing from a boat - Remove everything from the end of your line - no hooks, clips, lures or swivels - and then with the boat moving forward (max speed is not required) let your line out behind the boat. Let out a length at least equal to a long cast and then some. Hold it for a minute or so and while the boat is still moving, reel it back in. The twists will all run out and you'll be back in business. When I'm fishing something that twists my line, I'll do this at the end of the day on my way back to the ramp. If your fishing from the bank Sorry you're hosed. A-Jay

As crazy as it sounds, he made it look easy. A-Jay

Perhaps it would help if you thought of it this way: Since there is very little chance you'll part you're braid main line, in each situation, consider what pound test line you'd use if you were not using a braid main line. Then just use that for your leader. A-Jay

Hello and Welcome to BR ~ A-Jay

Was that part of Southern Fishing News - Operation HOOAH ? What year was that? Looks like a great time and very cool event. A-Jay

He's a meanie . . . . .Remember who loves ya Dwight. (especially for pre-spawn cough, cough ) A-Jay

Agreed - Everyone is different - in my case, once I made this THE Number One Priority - I finally saw the results I had been hoping for. A-Jay

This entire thread is only one of the many, many examples of why BR is The Best. Makes one proud to be part of this community ~ Really Good Stuff. A-Jay

Welcome to BR ~ A-Jay

Congrats on the tournament win and the Documented 8 Pound Smallie ! That fish should have had it's face splashed on at least a couple of magazine covers . . . . . Please post up all your pictures of that Beast - ASAP ! A-Jay

That's my bait of choice as well . . . White Ice A-Jay

Cool - when I first started fishing them I was using too heavy a weight and fishing them too fast - at least for my areas. the long bill 3/8's bait is most versatile and the best trailers for it seem to be thinner profile and between 5-6 inches. Good Luck. A-Jay

Well that will come in handy as you get a little further down "The Road" A-Jay

I remember those days - eating enough was like a job - a good one though. btw - in one of your most recent pics - looks like you're doing right. A-Jay

WTG ! and thanks for the kind words. Hanging with super tuned humans can't help but rub off and its sounds like you're making happen. There was never any doubt. As for growing up; as a younger man I professed to never wanting to. Well despite my best efforts, it happened a while back and to be honest ~ I'm glad. So much less Drama. Stay Safe & Train Smart A-Jay

Hasn't been much action posted on here recently. Hope very one's making it happen. Since turning Fifty ~ I completed my Personal Best Triple this week. (Dead Lift ~ Bench Press ~ Squat) Didn't quite reach my goal but that just keeps me working. Very Satisfied. A-Jay

Making The Memories. A-Jay

Yea, I don't know what to make of that one. It's got it's place though. Could be a complimentary, could be derogatory ~ works either way. A-Jay

Deep cover. Not visible, not shoreline, stuff that's challenging to discern even with the best of electronics. The type that I Never sit on if there are other anglers around but always camp out on at night. A-Jay

I've fished have a life time and caught some nice fish, always hoped to do better. I started going to places with bigger fish. Did better. I now agree with Woody Allen. "Eighty percent of success is showing up." A-Jay
