Snaps Instead Of Split Rings On Crankbaits?
I really like and use the Norman Speed Clip's. But as Felix say's they're harder to use when you're wet or even when your fingers cold, but they do the best job. Mike

Fishing Jersey
I love wearing the jersey's because they're just comfortable to wear all day. But to advertise someone's product just to have something printed on the shirt...Nope not me. If I just had to have something on it, maybe my kids or grandbaby's names? Local High School or college mascot? Something that make's YOU proud to show off? But thats just me Mike

Best Tackle Bag?
As a co angler I've gone through 3 different styles of bag's.. the BPS, a Cabella's model and a Flambeau The one I use now which is the right size and has the right amount of pockets, all in the right place is the Flambeau AZ 8. They make a 6 and 4 also. The 8 can get heavy but I tend to carry everything I may possoibly need on the water. Mike

Ok. I Can't Do It.
Big O, Toho or really any of the Kissimmee or Harris chain lakes should be on fire in Feb.. My personal prefferance would be Big O especially in the Monkey Box and the Dyess Ditch area. Some the big girls will still be bedding. If you want to try some salt water, Charlotte Harbor or Pine Island Sound would be where I'd be. If youi want some guide info pm me and I send you a list.

Allstar Ast Technique Specific Rods? Pretty Sick Rods To Me!
I have the ASR model jig rod that I've used for a few years. I really like it, It's probably not as sensative as others on the market, but it's made and serves me well. Mike
