Double line through hook eye knots
I used to tie the Pitzen, but that one extra step to tie the SDJ (which takes 1/2 second to do) makes it more reliable. In my mind at least. Mike

Vosker Security Camera
I was playing around with settings of my Vosker Security System last night and thought I’d post a few pages of the available settings. As you can see this thing covers almost every conceivable option. It takes out the guess work of how to set it up and more importantly the ability to customize it to a specific priority or give an overall picture. Mike

not a good year for us.
That’s too bad I hope you’ll be feeling better real soon. As far the other thing, cut your losses and move on. You’re the one who’ll be the better for it. Theres a message in the silence Mike

Craws with missing appendages
Keep in mind the inherent balance intended by a manufacture in any particular bait can be off if one side is gone, which can be all that’s needed to get hit which is proven by the results Mike

Craws with missing appendages
Four years my punch bait was an RI Sweet Beaver which has no side appendages just a somewhat split tail. When I switched to a Rage Bug or Craw for most bottom contact presentations, if a side piece came off I just kept goin. They have more action because of the flange which is the only reason I use them not because of an extra piece on each side. Mike

This Magic Moment
Every time when sight fishing a bedding female when conditions are right. When the male is aggressive and you have to work around him. My confidence level goes up, my patience goes up all the while trying to anticipate and read thier actions to make the best decisions Mike

coffee making at home.
I used to drink coffee all day long. When it was 90deg outside and everyone runs for a beer or ice water I’d throw a pod in. Caffeine doesn’t bother me, never has. I’ve been known to have a double espresso before bed Now in my somewhat advanced years I slowed it down but still enjoy a homemade espresso in the evening Mike

How Do You Play Your Bass.....??? Play Them Till Tired or Surf Them In...?
When in vegetation which I am 90% of the time, I get her head up and out as quick as I can. If not and she runs, I do the same without the urgency. I see no reason to play around…The hunt and set is why I’m there. Mike
