Yup, I've seen them explode many times, and often in a big way. I just cringe when I see people hold them. Hope you're ok.

Correct, Paul uses FC and braid just like you said. In addition Mark Davis uses FC for most of his cranking now, as stated in this recent article: https://www.bassresource.com/fishing/line-choices-mark-davis.html Yes, I tried it for a year. The abrasion resistance just wasn't to my liking. I found I was retying way more than I should. I solved that when I switched to InvizX for fishing cover, and Tatsu for open water.

Ok, I think we've established what we need to know. Piling on is of no use. And scene....

Oh which one? Got to give a big thank you to Plano, they have made this the best EDGE box for jigs and chatterbaits. We can store it and see exactly what we have.

Yup, that's for sure. Hence the raingear recommendation in my video. Thanks for watching!

The study mentioned above did not use Sure-Life products. The fish were at tournaments treated by a competitor brand that was given away by the same tournament organization. That competitor brand uses chemicals that actually burn fish gills, causing bass to "dance around" and be "more lively" in the livewell (because they're in pain!). The damage and stress, in turn, causes increased delayed mortality. Sure-Life products do not have any of these chemicals. But they do contain, in part, a sedative that helps fish relax and reduce stress. If you open a livewell full of fish treated with Catch-and-Release Formula, you'll see some pretty chill fish, which is what you want to see. Sure-Life products also contain anti-bacterials to help prevent infection. In essence, the fish leave the livewell in better condition than when they entered it.

See in the picture? How to rig it that way is detailed in the video.

I'm not a big and tall guy, so I don't shop for those items. That said, I've noticed both Simms and Columbia have "tall" versions of most of their clothing. And at least Simms has "wide" versions of their shoes and sandals. Makes sense because they make waders and river boots too. Both Columbia and Simms sells products at retails stores. Their websites list those retailers. Might be worth a call or two to see if any of them carry what you're looking for. ----------------------- I'm glad to see everyone is picking up on the underlying them of the video: sun protection. While fit, function, and comfort are key, it's the sun protection that's most important....including the glasses (also mentioned in the video). While it's been years since I've had a sunburn, I've had way too many in my lifetime to be complacent about it. In fact, I'm at an elevated risk for skin cancer simply because sunburns - and sun protection - were not a "big deal" until I was in my 30's. At the same time, fishing clothing like the kind mentioned in the video simply weren't available. And so getting a burn was something you "healed" and then moved on. I remember as a kid, that peeling dead skin from a sunburn was "cool" and "fun". I really wish I could go back in time and make better choices. Information about sun damage simply wasn't well known then as it is today.

The clothing options for hot weather fishing has exploded over recent years, and it can get expensive if get something that doesn't work for you. So I put together this video to help guide you through the various choices.

Yes, Evinrude is no more... https://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_123/evinrude-closed-52720.html

I'd give it 7. I like country, but this one is a little too slow for me. You know, usually when I watch a bar band do cover songs, they do alright. But this one....they did a pretty good job. I'm impressed. And equally impressed it took 7 people to replicate the song well. It's a slow start, but keep watching. btw, shoutout to @slonezp for his post. Real talent, no studio edits or autotuning. And that's a coronet, not a trumpet, in case y'all didn't know.

You got that right!

Wow, what an ordeal! So sorry you had to go through all that, but so glad it worked out for the best. @haggard is an incredible man that inspires me to become a better person.

For decades I've been telling people to stop pouring soda on bleeding fish. Now there's a study that backs that up: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.06.15.150797v1 Like I've always said, use a pinch of "Please Release Me" formula, which is designed for injured fish, and it will be much better off.
