Got a spinning rod!
I think they look pretty sweet. I am going to buy the Drop Shot/ Shaky Head model with an Abu Garcia Cardinal 500 ALBi spinning reel.

Does anybody use the Trokars?
How many of you actually use the Lazer Trokar hooks on a regular basis? They're way too expensive in my opinion. 10 bucks for 4-6 hooks? :-? Nope.

Zoom Super Fluke
I love a White Pearl Super Fluke. The bass kill 'em in fairly clear water.

strike king red eye shad finish problems?
I haven't had the problem with the finish scratching, but the eyes tend to peel off fairly easily with the ones I've used.

Worst time hooking yourself
I've never hooked myself...but it gets pretty crowded in a 14 foot jon boat with 4 people. I, of course, had to sit on the middle seat with my little cousin. I rared back with my baitcaster to throw my fluke... and hooked my uncle right in the ear. I thought it was funny, and it wasn't bad at all. My uncle seemed to think differently. I am now limited to spinning tackle in these situations. ;D

Norman Weedwalker
I have one of these that I got from one of my friends' garages. It's really old, and I just was looking on TW, and they have them. What do you guys think of them? I think it looks pretty good.

Trigger-X Softbaits

Trigger-X Softbaits
It looks like these are a Rage Tail knockoff. They come in a clamshell package and are advertised at my local Walmart on an endcap for $2 Are they any good?

What size and color crankbaits to buy
Shad Raps and Husky Jerks aren't really crankbaits. I suggest Strike King Series 3, 5, and 6. They're good at an affordable price. Another good crankbait is anything made by Norman. Deep Little N's, and DD22's are good.

Excel Monofilament

Excel Monofilament
Is this stuff any good? They have it on sale and I was about to order some. The reviews are totally divided though. There's some guys who say they swear by it. Others say it's the worst line ever since it's made in China. What do y'all think?

Boyd Duckett Rods
Sorry. I didn't know they were that old. I just heard about them on a podcast the other day. I guess it was old...Whoops.

Topwater color selection.
Most everything in the water that bass feed on has a white belly. Anything with a white belly (the bass don't see the top of a topwater lure anyway), is good.

favorite fishing show
I get cable, so the only ones that are ever on are WGFS with Zona (stupid), Spanish Fly (sucks), and Beat Charlie Moore (who decided to make this a show anyway?). So the closest I get to a fishing show is on FS Southwest called Southwest Outdoors Report. Other than that, the Elites are decent sometimes.

Best top water lure for big fish you have found?
I'm just gonna take a wild guess and say that it was a Mattlures Hardgill. ;D P.S. Look at the rod.

You gotta watch this. It's the funniest thing I've seen in a while. The words fit so perfectly... ;D

Boyd Duckett Rods
His new company, Duckett Fishing, is coming out with a new line of rods. They are all white (for less visibility by the fish in clear water), have micro guides (even spinning), and he sure talks like they're the cat's meow. Sounds a little far out to me. I heard him talk about them on a podcast the other day, and he was telling all these things...I need to paint all my rods in a baby bass color...maybe the fish would attack the rod instead of the lure...it would sure save a lot of line. lol. ;D Check 'em out: http://duckettfishing.com/home.php
