south bend minnow!

Thanks a bunch for your input. Re-tying that would take up a lot of time, but like you said i probably would not try it unless i had a nice bag in the boat already and it was nearing the end of the day. To reduce time spent tying i normally fish everything but soft plastic with clips. unfortunately it would be one complex rig if i used clips with this! Also thanks for the advice for the tourney. Its the AU bass clubs first of 4 qualifying tournaments for everything that goes on in the spring, and everyone's worst event is dropped. The top 8 or 10 make it out of about 30 guys.

1. There is actually one less knot than a carolina rig, if you dont use keepers. 2. I think the point is to fish it like a DS, and just have the jig there on the off chance a bass wants it, after all it may not be getting fished exactly the way a jig would, but its still being fished similar, even while correctly fishing the DS. Thanks for your response. Like you said if the jig bite is on, I'm definitely not going to be wasting my time doing this, ill just tie on a jig. Anyone else have any experience? I'm fishing my first tourney sunday and definitely think this is a potential weapon, that is, if my boater chooses to fish in a suitable area.

Heddon #100 Minnow do i win?

I was flippin through a Bassin mag at the store when i saw a jig fshing article that suggested using a larger jig as the weight on your drop shot. Now that i think about it, it just makes too much since NOT to do. Has anyone ever done this? How much more successful were you? Actually catch fish on the jig? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks in advance everyone!

that thing is real guys, its called the eastwestern sabertooth minnow....... native to all the waters you swim in :-/

i think he is saying that if the tournament wouldn't have been canceled, he would of crushed it.

Nope, we still make fools of ourselves out on the lake!

jeez man, was that a lake record? at least a pb right?

it was my BR outbox, not my emails. sorry for the mix up.

my outbox says that i have 3 messages which i named "craver" ,my last name, and that i sent them dec 31, 1969. also one that was not named with the same date. this happening to anyone else?

cool man. ill pm you.

Anyone here fishing lake lanier in GA? It sound bad but I'm looking for someone to take me out, I'll gladly split costs. I'm tired of fishing from the shore and want to go out with someone that knows the ropes.

I am planning on joining the Auburn Club Bass Fishing team this upcoming year and was wondering if there are any others out there some where. Newcomers like me or veterans, doesn't matter.

First one to land a carp on one wins IMO.

Maybe your just doing everything right?
