The only scent I use is either Megastrikes's or JJ's. Never tried any of the Gulp products.

I also like to use the tail section of Swim Senkos. You can put the tail up or down. Mainly only on swim jigs.

The Senko and the only reason I choose Senko is do to confidence. I have fished the Dinger and never ever caught a fish but tie on a Senko and instant success.

Wouldn't even dream of not using KVD L&L on all of my lines.

That is basically the only style jig head I use for jig fishing. I also get all of my jigs from North star, that is where I first learned of this jig head and I love it. I fish around a lot of timber and medium to medium heavy cover.

The Crucial should be fine, I would personally go with the MH/XF version.

I use Moss Green and Timber Brown from Power Pro.

I like braid and fluorocarbon. Braid in 30lbs and fluorocarbon in 15lbs.

I have several Tournament Pro Speed Spool reels and they are amazing reels. Been fishing them for over a year and have had no problems.

By any chance when you put the braid line on did you apply a backing of mono or use compression tape to keep the braid from spinning on the spool. If you did not then the braid will spin on your spool and feel like your drag is not working.

Lets go Sooners! Looking forward to the new playoff format to determine the national champion.

I agree!!

Isn't that the truth!

Well after 3 months of fishing this reel on a weekly basis I have not had any problems and the reel still casts and performs great. It is still very smooth and the drag is still outstanding. I am very impressed with the performance up to this point. Lets see how it holds up the rest of the season.

Always use them also.

All I can say is WOW, and iPad is a lot tougher then I thought it was!lol

Check on-line for some reviews of the reel and then read the reviews on the stores web-site. That should give you a lot of insight into the reel. Plus the major stores have great return policies.

I have seen fried butter as well!! Who would want to eat that, I can hear my arteries clogging just looking at the sign!lol

Just referring to the way he drug that thing out in Cleveland and kept those fans on pins and needles for pretty much that whole summer. Can't deny that he does great things for the communities no matter where he is.

Any of the Droid phones are going to be nice. I am or was a big Android user till I got my iPhone for work. Know I catch all the crap I use to give people who use the iPhone. It is worth it for sure. I have my 4S jailbroken and am running all sorts of custom tweaks and it just really out performs and Android phone I have had. But as far as Droid phones for Verizon go I would look at the Galaxy S III or the Galaxy Nexus, both great phones with lots of great support on the different forums.

I could not imagine my life without my wife or kids. Granted it is tough at times and down right miserable. but all the good times definitely out way the bad! The girls first walk off grand slam in softball to win the state title, PRICELESS The son pulling from his center position and flattening the linebacker and the safety to spring the running back for a 80 plus yard touch down run The daughters cheer team finishing the season ranked number 2 in the USA Nothing and I mean nothing beats these memories and their are hundreds more, these are just from this year. Then my beautiful wife, WOW, words can't describe this amazing woman who puts up with me and all of my fishing and hunting escapades. She is a RN at a prominent hospital in the area and works in the ICU unit for premature babies, needless to say how proud I am of her. But to each their own and I wouldn't change my life for anything.

For me personally I do not use braid with spinner baits. I use either fluorocarbon or copolymer line. I prefer a MH/XF action rod for fishing spinner baits and always use a trailer hook, its a confidence thing.

Nice info on the hooks, going to have to give them a shot with the Rage Plastics.

Spinner baits are great for the days when the fish just are not biting swim jigs. 2 of my favorite baits to use.

I never use a plastic trailer or trailer hook on my buzz baits. But then again with Cavitron buzz baits they are just not needed!
