In the spirit of maintaining this thread and not hijack it, I sent you a PM

Wait, what? Only a 3 lber? Do I need to send a Genie in a Bottle? Just kidding Mike, I wish I can get on the run you're having!

Well done! I'm looking for the jig head and want to replicate as well. He sent me pics and info about a month back, so looking forward to tying a few. Good luck and let me know how the are!

You drove that thru the streets of Quincy? God bless ya!

Congrats! Excellent season. Good luck in the tournament

Many years ago I would come home from work and would stop off and fish for a couple hours at the same pond. One day I came home a different way and saw a bassy spot on the side of the road. Not a busy road so my back cast would be into the road. Anyway I see a boil and needed to launch my dog walker pretty far to get past the boil and walk over it. I learned that by extending a little more line and feeling the rod load up like you would feel on the back cast of a fly rod, your lure would look like a perfect spiraled football in flight, increasing casting distance. I reared back and let her rip. Next thing I know I have a raptor hooked and losing line by the yard. Well I got spooled real quickly ending my trip. Alright, full disclosure, it really wasn’t a Raptor, it was just a regular Ford F150 XLT I caught my treble hook on the side mirror.

Definitely need something similar to this That will do you wraps and epoxy application And you will need something similar to this in conjunction with the above to dry the epoxy - I actually use this to apply the epoxy as well And I have this book BA (before Amazon) That is very helpful to me Good luck

I forgot to mention, if you're interested in the original email & PDF (scanned pages from the original magazine), you welcome to it or I can take snippets and post.

Tom - WRB - was really proud of this article. I was fortunate enough to have it emailed to me about a month ago. I'm sure he would like you to have it:

I’m so sorry to hear that @Eric 26. Such a hard day to do that. Pass along my thoughts to your family.

Please tell me the cat didn’t walk around with a lip ring? Haha That was awesome, hopefully you can do that next year!

I thought Denver was going to roll last night, but typical divisional games, you never know what you’re going to get EDIT: To be fair; I wasn’t exactly rooting for Denver in that one. I would have liked a KC win. 😂

So sad. I was about to start a winter project and trying to mimic Tom’s hair jigs. He sent me pics about a month ago I was hoping to mimic and either send to him maybe have BR give as a prize. Man, this is awful to learn of his passing . RIP Tom

You do live dangerously … haha

That’ll teach ya to be nice around Christmas Now get outta here you ruddy ‘ol piece of $&@! … Merry Christmas G!

You know @N Florida Mike, I have a few days off and I was preparing Christmas Eve dinner today. I had some time and needed a break and decided to watch an old James Bond movie. I just realized that the villain in the movie was just like you. Everything he touched turned to gold! Haha Wave that wand my friend! Merry Christmas

You're winning

@Fishingmickey got it right out of the gate! @A-Jay, I had a feeling you were going to pop in. Love the educational post. At minimum it’s a great reminder which is always welcomed. Merry Christmas boys

OMG...how lucky was that!

That sounds about right @bulldog1935 haha Your point 😂

My boat is moored out in the bay so to get out to it you have to row a dinghy to get on. This one particular day there was 4 of us who were going out. The current was particularly strong that day and it took us a bit to get out. We had to start well before the boat so that the current can push us into the boat once we got out there. It took quite a while from the time we walked to the beach, dragged the dinghy to the water and rowed out. Got on the boat and realized I had taken the boat key out of my bag the night before to clean it out. Totally forgot to put it back in the bag once it dried out. We lost an hour to an hour and a half to our fishing trip.

There is no worse feeling in the world than getting stuck in an elevator.
