Me too. But whatever you do, Do not, I repeat, Do Not add the last one inch tail section of a MaxScent Flat Worm to that deal. Might get your arm broke . . A-Jay

Am I a precision caster ? Not sure if I'd win any accuracy competition but I do take pride in launching a bait and having land where I want and need it to. Most of my deals are open water scenarios. However a near miss is as bad as a mile in many of them. Having a fish bust on bait on the surface, dropping my bait on her head and getting an immediate strike, is very satisfying. And to take the accuracy thing a bit further, being able to interpt relative bearing and distance using my electronics successfully enough to get bites, is a skill all in itself. Especially, at night. Ask @Catt Becomes particularly paramount when big brown bass are in super clear, skinny water. A-Jay

Oh my, Hope everyone's OK. But let this be a lesson to you kids ~ Texting and Launching just don't mix. A-Jay

Neither right now. He really likes my shoes though . . . . A-Jay

Lookup the Duo Realis Apex Vibe F100 and the F85. The 100 is silent and the 85 has a subdued one knock. A-Jay

Yes Just need to have the model that's designed to cope with the tonnage. The web site has units that are right for various applications. A-Jay

I do not fish competitively. Nothing against it, just not my style. Love watching and learning though. Tournament Bass fishing has been a part of the sport for a long time. It's evolved quite a bit and the earliest versions were clearly quite a bit different than the product we see today. Somehow the bass survived all of it. I expect both these trends to continue & improve. Fish Hard A-Jay

I appreciate the support @Catt, but I have no problem admitting that I am still a work in progress. Probably always will be. But as the years have gone by I do think I've gotten better. Night ops no doubt accelerated the process for me. Something I know I say much more these days is: "That was a fish" ~ And it often comes without a hook up but during a retrieve. Seems a fish will 'do something' (non visual) to disrupt a baits travel, regardless of which bait it may be. Routine offenders are spinnerbaits, most any crankbait, more recently a vibrating jig, and of course, a jig and / or rigged soft plastic. I do really like being able to know what my bait's doing and this may be an example of that. Sure seems to help when she does decide to latch on . . . #hithardandhope Fish Hard A-Jay

I think you explained it well. And if I understand this correctly, a Parasite Clip works too. https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Parasite_Clips_Stainless_Bait_Keepers_10pk/descpage-PC.html I use the small and medium sizes mostly myself. Been using them effectively for many years. A-Jay

Do IT ~ ! A-Jay

Good Luck with that ~ Btw, as noted above, sealer looks OK A-Jay

I'm a big proponent of Right place, Right time, Right deal. This style offers many forks in the road. I've made far more 'wrong turns' over the years than the other. But I think going down a one way every once in a while can set me up for a few sweet cruises Right Down Broadway ! And that's what keeps me coming back ~ #Ijusthadafeeling Fish Hard A-Jay

All the time ~ A-Jay

Best laid plans . . . This was a such a rare oppurtunity. Knowing the parents and lines doesn't happen often in a rescue situation. We picked him up the day after we re-Homed the foster husky. Been a bit of a whirl wind weekend for us. A-Jay

Thank You Yes Male. A-Jay

First, I throw down a cup of Joe. Next I throw the truck in drive. Then I throw the boat in gear. After that, everything is pretty fluid. A-Jay

This one's treated me right so far ~ A-Jay

Tank is an 11 week old Belgian Malinois German Shepherd mix. We've been waiting a long time for a chance to share our lives with one of these special & stunning dogs. I am over the moon happy right now ! A-Jay

Hello John and welcome to Bass Resource ~ A-Jay

Very Cool ~ A-Jay

BB went to her forever home today. Nice couple from down state came up to get her. The meeting went well as BB and her new owners were both smitten right away. Sad to see her go but happy she's in the right home. A-Jay
