Why are they no longer an option?

Boom: swim jigs with Keitech swing impact as trailers. These have been a go to for me the past couple of years fishing them primarily in clearer water. Ned rig, this thing has been a smallie killer for me. High pressured clear lakes, and these things still produce. Whopper Plopper. This year was the first time I have tried them, and they are a lot of fun. River 2 sea Rover. Might just be my favorite walking bait. Bust: Chatter baits/bladed jigs. Usually good baits for me, I haven't had much success this year. Z-man soft plastics. They catch fish and last a long time, unless they get hot. I have caught probably 50 fish on a single TRD, and have the rest of the pack melt because they got too hot.

DSG has a buy one get on 50% off sale, so I picked up a few of the new Rapala ripstops.

I just picked up a few packs of the neko worms from tackle direct but haven't thrown them yet

are you referring to the Daiwa Yamamoto Neko worms, or is there something else?

I have always been a fan of the Smithwick devils horse. You don't hear much about them anymore, but they still catch fish.

I know when I was young we used the "wacky rig" because we didn't know any better lol. I remember my grandfather teaching me how to texas rig a worm and me thinking it was too much trouble. So, since I am from Pennsylvania it should be called the Pa rig, or the pensy rig, or since I am obviously the creator, the "Bret rig". I like the sound of that one.

I'll have to give that a try.

that hog tonic is strong stuff

So tonight I decided to do some laundry, when my wife came into the room asking why the house smelled so bad. It turns out I left a Spike-it marker in my pocket and it opened while in the washing machine. I am now running it through again, hoping to get the smell out. Has anyone else ever done this?

I buy a lot of stuff from the famous auction site. You can find great deals if you look around. It is a pretty good way to fill in any missing pieces, or in my case, just buy more stuff that i don't need.

Thanks for posting this. Hard to beat 16 bags free! that is a good question. i guess print the receipt 4 times like you suggested.

i have kept soft plastics in my car, and for the most part didn't have too many problems. The big exception is with zman, they all melt together.

My DSG has a similar sale. $2 each when you buy 5 or more. I also applied my $10 off coupon, I purchased 10, so i ended up paying a dollar each. hard to beat that.

the boiling water works. quick dip, followed by an ice bath set them fast.
