  1. Hey guys I busted a couple guides off of one of my cheaper rods but I would like to replace all the guides on this rod, so I can continue to use it. This is the rod I keep in my truck for bank walking. The problem is I don't know what size guides to get. So I need a little help. The rod in need of repair is a 6' MH bass pro shops extreme baitcast rod with a trigger handle. It had 9 guides on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
  2. ;D Looks like you guys had a great time!! Like it says no exuses next year sign me up i am in!!
  3. I have been away from the forum for the past couple weeks. I have some sad news. My fishing partner/cousin/best friend died on the 15th of March. Deric Ron Wells was 26 years old. Likley murder is what the police are saying but it is still being investigated. My avatar is the tattoo I got to help carry on his legacy. Now everytime I hit the lake I take him with me. He was a dedicated father, son, and fisherman. We had been fishing together all of our lives. I will miss him our sport lost a young dedicated angler. Please pray for our family. Here is a good pic of him with a nice bass he caught.
  4. Now that is a fat toad! Nice fish and Congrats on the new pb!!

    Received my lures from triton21 and they are sweet! The owner hooks that he used on those jigs are perfect! And the one jig must be 1/16oz I will be busting the bass on that in the local pond, and the buzzbait has a free swinging hook design. That is pretty cool wish I would have thought of that myself! I am very statisfied! It is nice to see how many members are making there own! Here is a Pic of what he sent me. They are nice! 8-) :-* ;D 8-) :-* ;D 8-) :-* ;D 8-) :-* ;D
  6. $ 800,000.00 IN ONE YEAR VERY IMPRESSIVE. BUT THE REAL QUESTION IS HOW MUCH MONEY DID HE HAVE TO SPEND TO FISH EVERY EVENT AND HOW MANY WORKING HOURS DID HE PUT IN? I WOULD GUESS IN REALITY HE ONLY MADE ABOUT $35 - $40 AN HOUR! STILL PRETTY GOOD MONEY!
  7. I am sure that the dealership has to prep, check function of all electrical components along with engine. I am also sure that they will give that thing a good bath so it will be shinning like a diamond. I wanna see some pics when you get it! And yes I have boat *** too!!
  8. Nice fish! It's not skinny you just scared all the crap out of it when you set the hook. ;D
  9. Sent you a PM get back with me and maybe I can help you out!
  10. Starbucks are you kidding me? I could buy a lucky Craft Sammy for the price of two cups of Starbucks coffee, it ain't that good!!
  11. Seen those plenty of times, but everytime I do I LMAO ;D
  12. I voted for the Colts because they are my team. I live in Indiana so I have to be a colts fan! Of Course I used to be a Bears fan before the Colts rolled into town. So they are now my second favorite team. Going to be a great game. My two favorite teams in the Super Bowl! Going to be easy to route for the Colts but hard to route against the Bears. Either way I guess I'll be happy with the outcome.
  13. All seven are 1/4oz hand pourd bullet heads. 3/0 owner hooks. These are personal baits for myself so they have XPS blades, #3 colorado blades on the tandem models along with #3.5 willow blades. The single blade willows are #3.
  14. Just wondering if anyone uses Silver Thread AN40 fishing line. I used Sliver Thread years ago and always did well with it. Thought about giving the AN40 a try but thought I'd see if anyone had any positive or negative info on it.
  15. Just finished this batch let me know what ya think.
  16. $133 dollars you are just getting started, oh and good luck with that monkey thing, because once he gets his claws in your back you ain't ever getting him off!
  17. WELCOME Just take it one fish at a time! It's all about having fun and learning as you go. You are in the right place to ask questions! Don't get discouraged as this time of year is tough when it comes to bass fishing. Hope to keep seeing you around.
  18. Ya it's kool, and when I finally do go, they will pry the fishing rod from my kool dead hands! Another Good thing about kicking the bucket from this illness is the baitmonkey will finally get off my back!
  19. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WERE ALL GONNA DIE FROM THIS ILLNESS!!!! BUT ATLEAST IT IS GOING TO BE A SLOW WONDERFUL DEATH!! ;D
  20. Alpster that is totally awesome! Loomis is a top notch company but even I was skeptic that they would send you a new rod after you broke it trying to alter a factory rod. Just awesome.
  21. How about the Wing Ding? Thats a good one too. For those that aren't familiar it is Zoro Baits version of the chatterbait. Wing Ding what were they thinking?
  22. My wife picked up this nice display rack for my handmade spinnerbaits and jigs. It has mirrors on it along with a bunch of hangers, and it swivels too. Gonna take it down to the local tackle store where I manage to sell a few of my baits. Those lures sure will look better hanging on this rack sitting on the counter 8-) instead of hanging on the wall with all the others! My sales are gonna go way up. I sure love that woman she is always thinkin of me!
