Fished Rayburn a week or so ago, found a pattern right at the Walter Umphrey boat launch. Lipless in a off white or ghost color. Then on to Farmers cove. Same pattern same color. XR50 in ghost being the most productive. Cast literally on the bank and crank it digging up the bottom. Tiger creek was the same way, but more on 5" hollow swimbaits there. Just a little info for ya'll.

Thanks Jack, It has been a while since I have been on here. My work schedule is crazy, straight 14 hr nights for the past two months. I am so glad to see this Rayburn thread. I have been wanting one for a long time now.

7'6 mh or 7'3 hvy vendetta. GREAT idea about the pro qualifier. I have 2 now and am about to pull the trigger on a 3rd. This coming from a DIE HARD revo and daiwa user.

Just a heads up to all you Rapala crank bait fans. Gander will be selling rapala cranks for $2.99 on black friday. It excludes dt thug series.

I used to listen to AK1200, Deiselboy,Aphex Twin, Omar Santana, Goldie, Rabbit in the moon, Aphrodite, DJ Dara, Danny tha wildchild. And a whoooole bunch of other breakbeat and drum n bass. Grew out of it. I listened to all that in the mid and late 90's. Every now and again I will give it a listen to bring back some memories.

Online sales at Academy will start in January.

I do not use megastrike. The reason is because the products are not available at my local stores. If megastrike were available in Academy and Gander Mtn I would use it all of the time. Especially the mega bug.

Catt when do bass start moving back into the backs of creeks? Late sept and oct? And is there a certain water temp that will make this happen?

I personally have lost my patience for senko type baits. With all the setups I bring on my boat I am constantly changing rods. I fish fast until I find them, then slow down. I think this year I have caught one fish on an SK zero. I just don't ever tie one on anymore. The only time I do is in the spring, in the pre spawn and spawn times. I do think they are an excellent bait, especially for sight fishing in gin clear water and flipping buck brush. But it is a boring bait, just too slow for my taste.

My must have saltwater gear. At least 4 chrome rat l traps, chrome and pink or chrome chartruese is also fine. Also Hogies minnows in Halloween color, Berkley gulp shrimp in molting, pearl white, new penny, and glow in the dark colors. Rapala skitterwalk in redfish color. Mirrolure catch jr and catch 2000 shad or glow color. Zoom superfluke smokin shad and white (for fishing around rocks) rigged tx weightless. Norton send eel any color. Gambler flappin shad various colors. A variety of jigheads and keel weighted hooks. And a popping cork. I only target reds,specks and flounder. For snooks I don't have a clue.

Also I think allstar asr has a 7'3 mh and temple fork has one of that size for $99.

nevermind, rainshadow will work.

I want to get a full custom rod built, what are some good blanks? What websites can I find them on? Also what is the cork on the BPS rick clunn rods and fenwick rods? It's a dark colored cork. Where can I get it? Thanks

What is the color of the craw in that photo? I have a gambler ko hangover skirt that matches it PERFECT. Is it the lake falcon craw?
