  1. Look on the banks. If you see dead body parts on the banks that's a good indicator.
  2. Periods and commas are your friend Worst injury was yanking a 1oz jig so hard it bent the hook, went airborne, and caught me square in the Adams apple. After gagging for a few and attempting not to pass out, I tried to play it off like nothing happened. Nope everyone seen it!
  3. I have 3 MH rods and all are smaller than throw medium of the above listed two
  4. Until you have a lure wedged in a rock and have to break off.
  5. 6.5x 47 Lapua. Tact driver to end all tag drivers. Still super sonic at a grand!
  6. Thanks for the quick response. If the sale is going on till the 31st I will pick up a few.
  7. The jigs with the rattle bands that are not wire tied....How durable are the skirts and rattles not being wire tied?
  8. I have been watching a lot of flukmasters vidoes and really liking the look of his rods. He says hes using a Ducket and Dobyns for example. I really don't have the money to spend on them so I was looking for some cheaper alternatives. The thick backbone is what I'm after. Those things look like baseball bats compared to my rods.
  9. Lube it back up and just wipe it down afterwards with a damp cloth. Have you taken the side plates and spool off to lube it? I have no experience with Abu reels but I do have a 35 dollar loaner Shakespeare sigma bait caster that after living works like a champ. No Grinding at all. Just a pain to set up.
  10. Try just a smooth follow through without a fast whipping action. Start off slow and speed up on the follow through but don't go past your point of aim.
  11. Gene's video is as close to in person as you can get but if you have a person who can show you that's even better. One last question and I didn't see this covered but how is your cast? Whipping it or slow to fast follow through?
  12. I would kill to take a baby bass or green pumpkin flake colored 5" wacky rigged senko and drop it in one of those holes. That 3rd picture looks like a glory hole to end all glory holes! My guess is it doesnt get fished all that much.
  13. I caught a dodge neon once. Purple too! I was fishing off the boat dock back home and got snagged 3 times on something 10 feet off the ramp. There shouldn't have been anything there. Contacted KDWP and they did some trolling with their fish finder later that day. Got a call about 6 hours later telling me they found a purple neon that was stolen about 3 days ago. How in gods earth did some poor sap not tag the end of his boat with the car but no reports. They found a butt load of stolen property with the car too.
  14. The less the better?
  15. I have switched to Seaguar15# for my set ups and love it. First fluoro line I have ever used. I am not sure about the complaints on break off using the palomar knot though. Ive never had that issue. I only switched to the improved clinch knot as it waists less line when re-tying all the time. I haven't been able to try the line conditioner yet but I have noticed a ton better distance and less backlashes with fluro over mono.
  16. Unless this is your first baitcaster and its a walmart 20 dollar reel, setting your break to 10 is over kill.
  17. These two blondes are driving down a county road when they stop and see a blond in a row boat in the middle of a corn field. First blonde says to the 2nd Blonde "I hate these dumb blondes doing stupid crap like this giving us all a bad name" 2nd blonde says "I agree. If I had a boat I'd row out there and kick her ass"
  18. I wanna know what type of underware the guy was wearing cause I would have shat all over myself
  19. All the wires are clear that I can seen. My money says its all being hushed hushed right now due to the Penn State deal
  20. I think spending time worrying what to wear or what not to wear takes away from the fun of fishing. Kinda like sents and clothing for deer hunting. I wore a bright orange shirt, smoked and drank coffee while in my stand. I still killed just as many bucks as without. Unless your on a date or wearing a suit, fashion is a great way to get your man card revoked
  21. I bought the Bass Pro, Pro Qualifer in 471 ratio for cranks. Super smooth and no issues here. Its a bit on the heavier side compare to my other reels. I got mine in the classifieds for 50 shiiped. New they run 100.
  22. Amen! Some rain wouldn't kill us either. Lake Hefner in OKC is down about 6 feet now. Weekly forecast is 100-106 all week sunny and no clouds or rain.
  23. Think of it as practice for the big league. For every LM I catch at my main lake on top water, I catch 20-25 dinky hybrid bass. Still fun as all get out though!
  24. I figured after spending more on my bed than I did on my first 3 cars, I prefer my bed!
  25. The longer the rod the longer you can cast in most cases. If your fishing on peers docks or around trees the shorter rod might help
