These are the best IMO. 6 lber-Jig X 2 lber 3 lber 4 lber 6 lber Good luck on your trip. Catch some bigguns! Dan

Y'all are most welcome. I nearly went crazy searching for a Pork-O replacement and those Slinkies fit the bill. For some reason, their purple color has been my best producer. Dan

Man, I wouldn't complain! You caught some fine fish. I've never heard of catching catfish on a Senko. I'd say you should pat yourself on your back 8-). Dan

There's a link to their site in this thread. It is similar to a drop-shot rig but I use the rigging method that keeps the bait near to the bottom. You "float" the worm by your rod tip action. The bead is just to keep the swivel-clip from banging into or getting tangled with the worm's 'nose'. Dan

Got to my boss's pond and started throwing a little topwater bait and caught 2 keepers. Looked up the pond and there's a jonboat with two people in it. Didn't look like they were fishing and as they got closer, I saw one was running the trolling motor while the other was dumping what I later found out was fertilizer into the pond. They commenced to run right up where I was and that ended my fishing there. Went up to the upper end and caught two dinks and then came back to the deeper end and saw they'd finished fertilizing and had pulled the jonboat out of the water. Threw a Wiggle Rig/Speed Worm out from the bank and caught a 2 lber. Tried it again and a nice 5 lber picked it up off of the pond's bottom. Caught 3 or 4 more dinks and left for home, happy for the 5 lber. Click directly on the pic for better resolution: Wiggle Rig--5 lbs, 9 ozs--23" Again Once more Dan

Outstanding BASS BP72!!! Jigs are a whole different game eh? Dan

MY LORD!!!!!!! My jaw dropped ! One of the prettiest and certainly, one of the heaviest BASS seen for a while 8-). Dan

Nooooooooooooooooooooo!!! It stretches like salt water taffy >. Dan

I still have a jar of Pork-Os and you are right in praising them. When they went out of production, I discovered these pork baits. They aren't as long and are wider than the originals but they work. Dan

95% of my swimbait Bass have been caught with one of Matt's baits but here's a Slammer Bass. Dan

I have a pair(forget the model) of Natives too but I prefer these Wades. I have several of the most favored, high-end sunglasses but those Wades are the ultimate for me. Dan

Beautimus!!! What a great day! Kudos to you 8-) Dan

DB, the King of Jigs! Another great ol' timer at Bassin! Dan

WOW!!! Now that's the way to figure them out T-rig! Wind is definitely a spinnerbait's friend. Dan

Did you try superglueing them back on or anything? If the wings just fall off its not that big of a deal if they are still in one piece..? No Mike I didn't. I threw them away.

Where is "up north"; north Florida.....??? Dan

From another ol' 'jarhead', Welcome to BR! I was born-n-raised in South Florida many moons ago but never got to fish the Big O. Dan

Awesome action Russ! Glorious Bass too! Dan

Thanks again y'all. Corey, life is short...... LBH: I did substitute a Mustad Triple Grip hook for the front hook but the same size. Dan

Alright!!! That's a fine Bass(and Sol reel too)! Glad you got the pic thing figured out. 8-) Dan

Thanks guys. T-rig: No, it's a Tiemco Bass Mania TANK 50 popper. I do have a couple of Sugois too. BB: After downloading your pic onto your album in photobucket.com or another site, you can just copy and paste it here. Dan

Not for me...... :-/ I might be able to throw one with 4 lb line on a spinning rig but the wind will catch them and.....I don't use spinning tackle They are realistic looking but the ones I had were fragile and I didn't try them for more than 3 or 4 casts and not one strike plus, one or more 'wings' broke off :. Dan

Gorgeous Bass young man!!! Dan

Good catchin' FM and Congratulations on your new PB!!! Might want to capitalize "God" though and not just "Chatterbait". Dan

Very nice Bass young man! I let mine go too 8-). Dan
