Captain Cali

Thanks guys. I've seen the Katsuage hooks on ebay but I'm looking for an alternative that I can find locally. I just thought of a shop that might carry them. T-rig, how do those hooks effect the action?

For an all around swimbait rod, I'd with the Okuma.

Thanks Raul. I'd like to use the Katsuage hooks but as you said, they are hard to find. I will tinker with it to see what works best.

What brand and size hooks should be used in place of the stock hooks on a Vision 110 without effecting the action? I had one of the stock hooks bend out on and need to replace it. Thanks

Another one bites the dust. 8-) Thanks for sharing, Fish.

80?? Did he just say 80?? 8-) Dude, you are my hero!

Great articles. I just read all of them and they are all great. Thanks for sharing.

That new Stradic 1000 Mg has my name all over it! 8-)

Very nice!

Great fish and catch. Congratulations to Harold Hardin. Man, what a freak of a lake! 8-) That being said, I'm with Mattlures on this one. While it's possible (anything is), I doubt this is the same fish that Ryan L. and Fish Chris caught within days of each other.

Nice! You have them dialed in. 8-)

roadwarrior, What do you mean by real weight? I've tested the scale with gym weights and side by side with another scale (same model). avid, You're funny dude! I was just excited to see the fish. ALL the credit goes to halijedi. The hard part was already done and I just did what was asked of me. I know jedi would do the same for me in a heartbeat.

11 pounds, 2 ounces on a Rapala digi. Way to go buddy! Here is another picture. God Bless America!

I had the pleasure of witnessing this catch as well as lipping her out of the water. What a fish! I get chills just thinking about it. 8-)

Same thing. Just some different colors and less baits per package.

WORD! 8-)

Love the ultra light. Just about every fish is fun regardless of size. Great set up for light drop shot. I haven't used a UL this year though.

Sinjin, Congratulations once again! It was really good to see a big fish after the "chemical bomb" incident. fourbizzle, She weighed 11-02 on my digi.

Same here.

;D That was great!

Thank you Sir!

No Contest was the right call, IMO. Both fighters could not continue. One was a sleep and one tapped. What's the controversy?

I can beat that......I can remember 15 CENTS a gallon ;D Guess I'm not that old then.

I stuck and landed my first ever Crappie last week. It ate a LC Rick Clunn 1.5 crankbait in American Shad at night. Can anyone ID this fish? I thought it was a White but others are saying it's a Black. :-?

CXX rules!
