Do you weigh your fish or guesstimate
If they are decent size fish I will weigh all of them. If I'm catching a lot of dinks I will just weigh one to get an idea of their size.

Right now I am torn between Abu and Shimano. I have three reels of each. For a tie breaker I have Mitchell 308 ;D.

Buying a Used Vehicle
Find out how old the title is. If a car is totalled in one state it can be rebuilt in another state and given a new title. If the title is six months old and the car has 30,000 miles on it I'd let is pass. Check epinions.com they have a ton of reviews about jeeps.

How do you organize your crankbaits?
By depth also. A lot of the ponds and lakes I fish are different depths.

Worst time hooking yourself
Barb on a treble went in between my left ring finger and my middle finger. It didn't bleed very much and it didn't hurt very bad. Tried to pull it back out and push it through but it wouldn't move, like it was stuck on something. Got down the the emergency room and the Dr. said that it was through a nerve. After they cut it out and the novacaine wore off it hurt like the devil.

estimate the weight on this thing?
It's bigger than most of the ones I usually catch. So that puts the weight over 1 pound .

your dream lake?
Right now I would settle for the ice melting off the lakes.

What spinnerbait do you use?
I use some spinners, but not as much as some people. I like the BPS 1/2 ounce lazer eye tandem Colorado blades in white or white/chart.

Purple Plastics
Creme still makes both grape and purple worms. At least they still did last year when I ordered from them.

Spinner Bait Color
In the past couple of years I have started fishing more with spinnerbaits. I use white or white/chart. with silver tandem blades. For me, I've found that the white works better in stained to muddy water and the white/chart works better in clear water.

What was your first artificial lure?
Probably a Big-O back in the early 70's.

December in Florida

JIGS, TO RATTLE OR NOT TO RATTLE...
The ones without rattles seem to work better for me, even in muddy water.
-
favorite pitching and/or flipping bait?
I really don't have a favorite. I'll flip and pitch whatever I am using if its called for at the time.
-
Chatterbaits
I have two of them, and I found them both. I haven't used them a whole lot. A jig works much better for me.

IE problems
Try going into an antivirus company's website, and check to see if your software will update. That is how I discovered that I had a virus on my pc. Also make sure that your video drivers are updated to work with the new browser.
