  1. Agree with BAD noise rattles.
  2. Add Bass Pro to your un favorites as the buy up product lines. Monopolies & price fixing are standard now. Quality and selection goes down the tube.
  3. At 77 I have tried to BREAK a rod casting as hard as possible. Never happened ............No ultralights used. If you can toss the lure far enough & accurately enough ? Perfect rod.
  4. Did you call the company & ask for Technical Support people ? Do that.
  5. They can not squint or wear UV A & B sunglasses !!
  6. Most females will have some breasts.
  7. I would ask for a prewritten reply for questions like this. It took me several minutes to describe watching the coils coming off the spool & all the other steps.
  8. I use the pointy ones...............Only !
  9. ....deleted
  10. Perch ARE VERY canabalistic !! I have caught many 6" perch on the very skinny 8" Rapala floater. Real strikes 2 of 3 hooks in the little guys mouth.
  11. I think people do not separate the fact that a hungry fish goes RIGHT AFTER THE BIG NOISEY lure from a farther distance. The 1/2" Flicker Spinner is not NEARLY as productive as my 8 to 14 " lures on large fish.
  12. Unless you are a nut case ? A GOOD group of people enjoying what you enjoy ? Will make your fishing more enjoyable. Keep trying all local clubs. Good luck. Took me 5 years to find a GRAND radio controlled airplane club......... WAAAHOOO........ Outings & meets. Life is a lot better.
  13. Best times was........ Had 2 nice perch on a double spinner line . Rod bends down. Drag on the 4# roars strong.
  14. Can NOT resist a answer to this question !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have caught more HUGE fresh water bass & pike on a SINGLE Flicker Spinner gold #2 spinner blade. 1/2" long with a single #12 hook on it. 18" smallies 24" LM + 40" pike......................Many many many times. While pitching for perch. Spinners ARE FRIGGIN DEATH on almost any fish. Yeah......I bought 12 new Rebels & Rapalas 1.5" long, in perch pattern & Emerald Shiner. But the fact remains. The single gold blade WILL catch fish also in bright light levels .
  15. CD Years ago I would take small neighbor hood kids to a creek in my town. The mothers had chairs & chatted. The Sunfish at the holding spots would allow 2 to 4 guys to get hooked & lifted out. ON CUT UP WORMS. Then they would not approach bait. Moved to next spot. Almost same thing would happen. At every spot. The no bite could be for hours or until that evening. I laugh my butt off when the guys " Practice " before a tournament.
  16. I fish with a stopwatch every few days. See how fast I can open the can & make a tunafish sandwhich.
  17. I am a pro at 3 pieces of abandoned pipes in 3 different locations. Also at islands.. I go in before or after other boats fishing them & catch the same unfortunate huge smallies. Yes. I do smile as I crank up the 9.9 hp & move off. If they followl ? I take them to a catfish spot. Then they think I am the luckiest ass fishing. Your observations of the pro are spot on.
  18. Anything works when you find them. Until then ? Nothing will work.
  19. How much are Hernia seats costing new ? I would yank the whole seat setup & put in a bow rider boat seat. Mine is has all 3 directions & a flip up front edge for docking or to change positions while running. You guys will be in wheelchairs & replacement joints later in life..........Fix the crap seat setups.
  20. Could you show us what part of the EPA future changes you know will KILL E Techs again ? I know you know what you are saying since you are a sales manager for a boat dealer. But I still want you to show us how the Direct Injected 2 strokes are doomed.
  21. My 4 day cold just broke. Feels great to be ABE. Normal...............
  22. I am a old cranky Geezer !!................
  23. I use a 5 turn Triline knot. New Cajun 4# & 8# slips a great deal. The 1/2 hitch saves me.
  24. I simply put a 1/2 hitch on the end of the line. That DOES jam against any knot and prevent any slip offs. On my new braid I can just pull & jiggle the main line until the 1/2 hitch jams. done.
