No doubt - I have a similar boat loading deal (tight quarters and an incline) I can do the incline with the truck but do need to fit it in position by hand. I use this and just push the boat - super easy on a smooth cement surface in the garage. IME - the few times I had what you're describing - I had to let it heal - the more I used it (and felt that pain) the longer it took to heal. A Body will usually do it - just have to let it. Good Luck A-Jay

This looks interesting - and it's cheaper that physical therapy . . . A-Jay

Interesting ~ Those allergy tests are amazing and quite revealing. They can really help folks zero in on very specific allergens. In my own particular case, every test I've had recently has indicated very similar results. They trigger such symptoms as grinding teeth, clenching of the fists, and sudden loud out bursts of words that include a few harsh 'K's'. A-Jay

Agreed ~ And perhaps there was an under the table deal - and Mr Martin wasn't in on it either ? A-Jay

Well it's a dern good thing they 'obscured' da Nether Regions. Cuz I can't be seeing any of that there stuff Nope. ? A-Jay

As this holiday season fast approaches, so does the potential for over indulgence. Hoping to get a head start on that . . . . A-Jay

~ Bait Monkey Wish List ~ Great Idea ! My current list (which is subject to change at any time) is very short and contains only one item. However, the "Benjamin Factor" simply can not be ignored on this one . . . . A-Jay

Here's our Christmas Tree ~ That's right and it will stay there because it's still only November ! A-Jay

@NHBull - Please let me know how that goes ~ I've got a few in need and if DVT doesn't come on line in a timely manner, I need a back up plan . . Thank You in advance A-Jay

Great Bass ~ Congrats A-Jay

Surface presentations & Cooler water can be a tricky deal. For the Brown Bass here, I use 50 degrees as my line in the sand. In the spring with water warming, it's where I usually start throwing topwater. May not get bit right away but add a little sun and it can get good. In the fall, it's pretty much when I stop throwing topwater. Again some sun will help it and clouds & / or cold wind, will usually shut that action down, hard. Started my last day on the water in Oct 2018 with a topwater fish - water temps near 51. (Rest of the day they were on a Vibrating jig and a swinghead pretty hard) A-Jay

Congrats ~ And IMO - A most solid contributor too. A-Jay

Hi-Jack Alert ! I have no gutters. The piles of snow & ice would just rip them right off. A-Jay Discontinue Hi-Jack alert at this time . . .

So it's either no leaves and Roof-rats or no Roof-rats and clogged gutters. That's a no win for the unsuspecting home owner A-Jay

While these vehicles are a ways from Dicks, what we can't see is what they are very close to . . . A-Jay

"Plastics" have changed a bit from the time that this thread originated. And the OP has been MIA for a couple of months. Either way, I haven't decided if the change in soft plastic baits has been for the better or worse mortality wise but here's my last encounter with it . . . A-Jay

Get me some too ~ Please . . . A-Jay

Well, that certainly clears it up. A-Jay

Agreed ~ But could this response be construed as a conflict to your own job security ? ? A-Jay

Expect to be fishing shallow and perhaps very close to cover Wear sunglasses - all day. Good Luck ? A-Jay

I prefer the bigger TRD - still use lighter gear but the slightly larger presentation seems to target the bigger brown bass I'm looking for. I use two head interchangeably - both in the 1/0 size. https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Owner_Block_Head_Jig_Head/descpage-OBHJ.html https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Outkast_Tackle_Perfect_Ned_Head_3pk/descpage-OTPN.html A-Jay

Agreed. I will always chose which body of water I fish each trip based on recent past & current weather conditions. Especially on bigger bodies of water - it's a must. And at least half of those trips (especially early & late season) the prevailing wx conditions upon arrival dictate a complete change in plans. I try to role with it best I can but will admit it's a challenge for sure. A-Jay

The Game play was Ugly but 9-1 looks good. A-Jay

Yup. A-Jay
