Manns Baby 1-
A very good lure, but I have to agree with what Avid said. I have never had a lure tangle its hooks together as much as this one will.

Crankbaits, snap or no snap??????????
I use snaps all the time with crankbaits and I don't see any change in the way the baits run. Make sure you use a high quality brand or the fish could pull the snap apart.

Baseball. Chunk trailers or craw trailers.

Rod/Reel/Line Question on Tube Fishing
My first rig I used for throwing plastics was a baitcaster on a MH 6'6 rod w/ 12 LB line. I could get the tube 20 to 25 feet if I was throwing with the wind. Each time when I tried to muscle it out farther I would get a nasty bird nest in the reel. Now I use spinning reel mounted on M 6'6 rod with a fast tip for all light plastics. Senko type baits and carolina rigs still get the baitcaster.

The Magic Tables
I pay more attention to the barometric pressure than the moon phases myself.

how do you organize your hooks, jigs weights?
All of my hooks, weights, and snaps are in one BPS 370 box, separated by size. I use to have them divided by size and color but I kept running out of space. I keep the jig heads in the same box with the jigs and skirts, also separated by size.

Your favorite reel brand vote here!
I voted Abu-Garcia because thats what all my baitcasters are.

What kind of Hooks on your Zooms?
I like a 3/0 WG or EWG for thick baits like a Senko, but for everything else I will stick to a 2/0 WG.

green pumpkin and watermelon
I like watermelon in shallow water, clear water, or under sunny skies. I use green pumpkin in deep water, stained - murky water, or when its overcast.

Snags
Usually when I hang up in a brush pile with a t-rig its the weight getting stuck in a V. I found that by using the smallest weight I have or by going weightless I don't hang up nearly as much.

Huge Florida gator...
How would you have liked to foul hook that thing .
-
finally found one!
Zoom makes some Salty Chunk trailers in the tiny size. I've never tried them, but they look like they would work with a 1/16 ounce size.

Success Formula -- a Subject of Debate
One of the reasons I go fishing is so I won't have to think about stuff like this.

HOW FAR WOULD YOU DRIVE?
It would depend on her bass boat and how much tackle she had.
