Boulevard 80 Acre
If I want to just drink a lot of beer (don;t know why I would want to do that...) I will drink Budweiser If I want to enjoy myself and drink some slow, I will drink a Guinness, Pint, from my favorite bar, with a shot of Jagermeister (my last name is Meister, so it is in my blood!) to back him up....sometimes our favorite beers also have good friends that want to joint the party.

Are There Some Baits You Just Won't Use?
I can agree with this, I will fish a T-rig instead. The only thing I can say that I will not use is GYCB senkos and that is because they are too much $ for me, when other things work just fine.

This is fishing, not video games Use what you can to catch those fish, no one here is going to judge you, at least not me

Soft Plastics + Hot Vehicle = ?
Zero problems with my tackle in the car in the summer here in Ohio, where it gets up into the 90's more of the summer. I use majority of zoom baits. Certain skirts will melt to the plano boxes, so be careful of that. I have had issues with baits melting in the past, but that was a long time ago

Your Fishing Kayak Setups?? Pics
My kayak in various stages of setup. Not many people have seen a Emotion, they are awesome, and cost effective. What is not in the pics is more decals, and I installed silent traction material on the gunnels, and any areas of contact where my paddle will rest, and where the anchor trolley carabeaners clang on the hull.

Does Bass Pro Carry Strike King Eye Wear?
I have a pair of Camo SK glasses on my hat as I am typing this, they are on sale at Wal Mart for 15 dollars. They are okay as far as then lenses go, I have a 12 dollar marked down from 50 pair of .....idk maybe Kenneth Cole glasses I got for cheap before my honeymoon and those lenses are awesome. I honestly think going to your local mall and checking out the sale rack for last years style glasses will yield you unexpected results. The lens is what is important, and for 12 bucks I got a good pair of lenses on meh looking glasses. Just a thought on a cheaper slightly better then SK route.

Favorite Medium Heavy Rod
The Mojo is going to be a good rod, but you really need to handle them. The Veritas is going to be stiffer action for action with any St. Croix rod. I have felt the Mojo's but never fished them, I have fished all of Abu's rods except the VIllian and the new Volatile line, and they all run pretty stiff. Personally you can't go wrong with either, but I would trust the Veritas only because it is what I know.

Convergence Vs Vendetta?
they feel tip heavy, but once you get a reel on they are pretty well balanced. The Lews SS is a great fit for the rod, as is the Revo. I do love Vendettas for the price they are great, but like I said previous I feel like they do not have enough whip for cranking, where I like to have a true medium action, and for some reason Abu Garcia doesnt make a standard medium, their medium is not much different at all from the MH

Convergence Vs Vendetta?
I have 5 ven's and I like them all. I like stiffer rods for most of what I fish, but if you want a good cranking stick you are going to have to find something from another company. Unless you get a ML action rod, there will be almost zero whip in the rod, MED and MED/H are all super stiff, which is a preference thing. Falcon's have the action I like in a Medium action cranking stick, so I just use those for cranking.

Spinnerbait Tips And Tricks
One of the things that will work great is to feather the skirt but sort of pumping it. You can do this with a slight pause while you are reeling in. make sure whatever you do that you fish that baby into some cover and hit the grass, logs, rocks and whatever else you can find.
