My favorite flipping hook I've triad so far is the denny brauer girp pin hook from mustad. The bait keeper tears the bait less then all the others I've tried and the keepers dont move. I havn't tried the VMC's yet but have tried the gamblers, cobras from halo, strike king hack attacks, gamakatsus and the trokars.

Fish it pretty much like you would a fluke.

The male makes a bed for the female to deposit eggs on then the male will fertilize the eggs and guard them until they are fry. Females will go from bed to bed leaving eggs at each one. This is natures way of making sure the genetics are mixed.

I have the simms sun armor buff and it has extended flaps front/rear that you can tuck into your shirt that help protect the neck. It also has a vented mouth area that helps but it still fogs up when you wear it over your nose. I dont wear it over my nose I just put sunblock on my nose and wear a full brim columbia hat.

I dont change much but I do go to a bass imititaion color during the post spawn.

Another option is to put a ring/carbine or a loop of strap on you existing eye and then attach your strap to it. I've seen alot of boats tie down to the jackplate gamblers are that way.

I do this sometimes with a 10" offshore trolling crankbait that has #2 treble hooks on it.

I got mine from the tackletrap for only a couple bucks more then ebay and they are a authorized dealer.

My smallest was about 3.5" I caught it on a rebel pop-r it was about the same size as the bait.

Went to my walmart today and they had the bait bonaza going and it was 2.50 a lure I picked up 4 zara spook jr's,2 bomber jerk baits and a couple creek chub topwaters.

40# braid of your choice I recently tried diawa samurai braid and so far its my favorite and I've tried them all.

Core 50

3600 boxes are 11"x7.25"x and 3700's are 14'x9 1/8"

The 3750 uses 3700 series boxes and the 3650 uses the 3600 series boxes.

They make them in various lenghts and mounting options. I've proabably installed about 15 of them over the past 10 yrs on several boats.

You stick your line through the little wire loop then slide the rubber bobber stop on to your line then continue to slide the bobber stop onto your line till the tag end comes out. There is a hole in the center of the bobber stop and without the wire loop you would never be able to get the bobber stop onto the line. Here is a video the good stuff starts a 1:25

I found a bunch when I looked they might not be fishing line specific but a spool is a spool. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313&_nkw=empty+spools&_sacat=0&_from=R40

Here is a better picture you just push the center of the spring and it collapses. http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_11151_10001_23116_-1?ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=23116&cid=sc_googlepla&device=c&network=g&matchtype=&gclid=CKinm7WGoLYCFQTqnAodY0oAUw

I added a couple of these http://www.basspro.com/Bass-Pro-Shops-8-Hatch-Support-Spring/product/83196/?hvarAID=shopping_googleproductextensions&om_mmc=shopping_googleproductextensions&kpid=83196 and just mounted them at 45 degrees when the rod locker or hatch is open. There cheap and never go bad like gas shocks.

Getting different powerpole brackets might be one option see if you can exchange for a pair with more set back. Option two would be drill a hole in the power pole bracket to hook your transom strap.

1. Walleye 2. Crappie or perch its close 3. Blue gill All three are really tasty.

Search empty spools on ebay they have every shape and size you could ever want.
