  1. Keep mine in a Tupperware kinda box with dividers. It’s a little bit bigger than a shoe box, and has two levels. I keep the oil, grease and tools in it.
  2. Thanks @Crow Horse great video
  3. X2 also look at 6th sense movement 80WK
  4. I keep a telescopic baitcaster, with a spare spool to switch to BFS. It’s very cheap, got it from Ali express for $38.00. I was surprised how well it works.
  5. Wacky rig weightless with a senko type bait by
  6. I could and did until I found Bass Resource site, until I found this site. I fished with one rod and retie everything, so I could go back to one rod.
  7. It has changed the sport….. I was fishing up in one of the creeks that dump in the St Johns. Three young men were going by, two were up front, face down looking at the three screens they had up front. The other one was sitting in the back sit texting…… they didn’t even acknowledge me, not sure they even saw me. I’m sure they missed out on a lot more than seeing me. Although I’m pretty interesting and I did have a Dos Equis this afternoon.
  8. Hi from the Sunshine State of Florida…… I think I cut my teeth on trout fishing.
  9. I whole heartedly understand …. Have done a few too, lived in them while rehabbing too. I don’t want to live in another construction zone.
  10. My condolences to you and his family.
  11. @ol'crickety Great story…. Love “old school values” Sounds like the canoe will serve you well. Did you get a storage shed yet? I don’t the accessibility to your property, but would a pre built shed from Home Depot or Lowe’s. Get it it big enough to put a couple of bunks in it later on.

    Hi from the Sunshine State of Florida.
  13. Thanks @Glenn I like your videos.
  14. Bass Pro, ya get 15 for just under $6.00. Color selection seems to getting less.
  15. Glad you were there!! That whole situation could’ve turned real bad. Happy it turned out the way it did.
  16. Happy Birthday to you and congratulations on the win.
  17. It’s all sad, my condolences to everyone. Most accidents could’ve been avoided, it’s usually realized after, not before……it cost a life and affected those that have to live with it.
  18. I got a BPS auto/ manual vest, I wear it all the time….well at least while I’m in the boat. They are inexpensive compare to the hydrostatic models. I’ve worn my in lite rain and it hasn’t went off, has a window to see if it’s charged and ready. The rearm kits, if needed, aren’t that much ether. They are very comfortable, like @DennyB I forget I’m wearing it.
  19. Congratulations @RRocket Very nice, looks very user friendly. Could you add on to the fin instead of removing it, and fish standing up there? Would it be stable and easy to get on?
  20. Thanks for the link. @JediAmoeba I never knew it was that crazy….. I mean WOW!…. Their electronics cost more than my boat, trailer, trolling motor and my $99.00, 10 year old hummingbird. Plus it was used when I got it, I remember getting a pan of ice water and putting the transducer in it so my buddies and I could watch the temperature drop on the screen. (easily amused I guess) I wonder how much of nature and the beauty of fishing they miss focused on those screens.
  21. Walmart, $1.00, get an array of colors, and blades. They have buzz baits too. At $1.00 I don’t cry too bad if I lose one. I tweak some of them, change, or add beads, blades, I bought a few extra for parts. I think they are a decent, budget minded way to break into the spinner and buzz bait part of fishing.
  22. I switch to a different bait, before I fight to many weeds, shallow crank or a wakebait. I know I probably miss out on of fish, but I imagine them hiding and waiting to ambush the bait from below. Then I don’t have to clean off the lure every cast.
