What he said. I make my own so it has everything I want.

During the summer (on the pond near my house where i get to fish every day ) I HAMMER them with weightless t-rig. 3/0 gammy 7" worm. Right now I am doing good with rattle traps. My PB came from this pond that is coming alot more popular to people from out of town >

I am also looking do get a replica mount but I was wondering on what the average price of a replica mount is?

I would be hitting the vegetation with t-rigs or going along the edges with rattle traps/cranks

Bryan, I was just looking at some of the Costas and was wondering if the numbers meant anything different in the lenses or only the style?

I am definitely planning on getting a good pair such as Oakley. I guess my main question about sunglasses is if you could have 1 color what would it be? Or are separate interchangeable lenses pretty cheap?

Since the spawn is approaching us I am curious on what is your guys's favorite spawn site-fishing lures? I am also looking for a new pair of sunglasses but don't know what color of polarized lens is the best.

if your only using to catch bait on go with a BPS Micro Elite Spinning reel on a BPS Graphite Series or Microlite depending on how much you want to spend.

I'm 17 and am out there almost everyday. My first word was "pole-pole" so I guess I was just born to fish ;D

I used to only use UL/L tackle around here because I fish 98% weightless worms from shore in hard to cast spots. I can cast a weightless worm a mile even when I'm in cover.

lipless cranks, bucktails (specifically Mepps #5), and spoons are my favorites.

Gammy EWG's I think I'm going to try some Owner next year just to try em out but the EWGs are great

awesome. thanks a ton

Thanks a lot everyone. The only thing turning me away from Mathew's is that huge price tag :-/ And I know buying a BPS bow is risky but I was just curious to see if anyone had tried it out. They are made by Bowtech. Is the $100 bucks worth it to take the jump from the XS to the normal Bow Madness? Its only like 10 FPS difference and 3/8" in Brace Height..

I'm looking to get one of these two bows: -PSE Bow Madness $600 http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_104429_450001000_450000000_450001000_450-1-0 -RedHead Krptic Pro $650 http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_10202048_450001000_450000000_450001000_450-1-0 I bow hunt from a treestand in WI. My shots aren't more than 40yds. I would prefer comments from people who actually used the bow. Thanks

I have caught pike in both Geneva and Delavan. also got a 38" Musky at Shabbona

#5 Mepps in just about any color. Also large Rapala Rat-L-Traps

I would definitely get some soft plastics. I personally like the BPS brand plastics and they are cheap and put fish in the boat. My favorite is the BPS ribbontail watermelon red flake in 7". Also the BPS curly tail (I think thats the name) in black w/ blue tail 6". you can switch the colors based on your preference but those are some that work well.

5" White BPS XPS Double Twister Tail? (Not official type doesn't have a name). Great for Pike and Bass. And even gives a large enough profile for Muskies. Had a few follow up in MN put no hits

How are you guys cutting/ putting the bluegill on the hooks?

Thanks. Are the Cabela's XML good? Or would I be better off going with Carrot Stick or All Star?

What specs for a BC rod using: -T-Rig/Weightless T-Rig -Spinnerbaits/Buzzbaits -Frogs/Poppers -Cranks -Jig & Pig This may be a dumb question but if on a spinning reel I use my left hand to reel should I do the same with my BC or is it mostly preference? Also what brand, test, and type (mono,floro,braid) would be the best for each setup? I'm trying to find a new setup and just want to make sure i make all the right purchases. Thanks!

Man, seems like there are no bass clubs in IL

Looking for a bass club in North/Northwest Illinois. Might be willing to join one in Southern Wisconsin. I am a non boater :'(

I was fishing from shore. Only Canoes/Kayaks are allowed. I occasionally take my buddy's kayak out but I have much better luck from shore for LMB
