both depends on how you fish it, that's the beauty of most lures they have multiple applications, but it is the one you choose to use. so yes the snake can be used as both. Also I forgot to mention, tie on baits that would fall in the 2 different categories, but make sure you have CONFIDENCE IN THEM memo

congrats on the outing as well as catching a few. Don't you just like it when you catch on baits/lures that aren't suppose to work due to time/season. Any ways nice to hear you had the chance to go out an get some. memo

Anyone use an inflatable, I got one for fathers day a few years back an have never actually took it out to fish. Just for rec use only. It's a 12 foot holds 3-4 people (I still don't see how) Was wondering if any one has modified one uses one. I will mostly be for small ponds, lakes with little traffic. thanks Also if you do/ have modified one can you post pics to give me some ideas thanks again memo

Two types, 1. a search bait (spinner bait, buzz bait, crank bait) 2. saturation bait (worm, creature bait) the difference between the 2 are simple a search bait is one designed to be work at a moderate speed. when you want to cover water in search of water/ locations holding fish. A saturation lure is the opposite one that is designed to be worked slow, in other words you know the fish are there, just a matter of putting it front of it an get it to bite. Hopefully this helps memo

WOW, I understood nothing, saw nothing, heard nothing, wont tell anyone nothing... Wish I had your skills or your time. My babin fever lately has consisted of honey do's. you know those things we all chose to do later. well it usually is cold later. Nice job on the reel. I epecially like the name "Garluger" memo

I would say lenght (overall) since the thread pitch isn't different from anyone of those on the site. memo

Hey that is how I feel when I find myself at the fishing aisle, at wally world. You know the feeling when you have to buy that certain lure that you already have but don't use because,,,,, hmmmm I don't know why but you have to get it. memo

I thought about the same as well, but for now I have been pract on old broomsticks, rake handles etc etc. As for the lathe check this one out , http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=38515 the basics all you need is a drill. memo

No worries, when ever you want to go let me know, even if we beat the bank. How are you coming along with makeing baits, any progress yet. memo

welcome back memo

Hey Nitro when ever you want to go to the Potamc, Smith lake let me know, Im willing to go out an be cold for a bit that way we can get two birds with one stone, catch fish an freeze... memo

There are tons of places. First of all welcome, also what are your limitiations: bank beater fish from a boat. What do you like LMB or Small Mouth. Where do you live county. We have the Potamac which can hold a variety of fish, but at the same time that all depends on what all you can do. hope it helps, if not there are a few members that are brave an bold an like to go out in the cold memo

Welcome, make yourself at home.... not do as the monkey says ;D memo

Just wondering if any one has ever made there own blades, an if so can you point me in the right direction....Cabin Fever is bad, an the monkey keeps knocking. thanks memo

Good question an phenomenal answer. Sorry I was curios as well. Hey Deermaster what part of virginia are you from. memo

Posted by: Nick B Posted on: Today at 7:07pm I have a 14ft Jon with a 30lb Min Kota, and in high it gets me place to place quickly and I shouldnt have to worry about any wind that may come up. I would recommend a 30lb just for that reason, especially if it is your primary means of propulsion. X2 memo

Have you considered the Rage Tail frog. not you traditional frog, since it can move like a Buzz bait, as well as a normal frog. memo

Add water, charge , take to local parts place an have the battery tested. It should be fine....... I think.. memo

congrats on the outing especially since you went out with your dad. now as for the temp *&(*^(* ^&YY(* (&)&)( (^ ) .... oh wait it won't be long before I can say the same just a few more months :'( memo
