Mr. Twister
I have used a lot of Mister Twister products over the years .I havent recently because I ran out and have so many plastics , that I need to try to use them up . I still have a Mister Twister spinnerbait . It has a three way swivel on it with two blades side by side . Thats the only spinnerbait I ever seen like it . It pulls hard . I also had some MisterTwister buzzbaits .

Fuel line clog , primer bulb ? help
It has the oil injection . I did not see the fuel filter . I tried priming the bulb when it is running but it didnt do any good . I'll try pumping the primer bulb to check for leaks . I guess I'll have to have it checked out and the gasket glued back on when I winterize it . Thanks a lot .

Fuel line clog , primer bulb ? help
Its a 98 . Guys I am very mechanically challenged . Things just dont click for me . After removing the cowling the seal came off . Does that have to be glued back in ? Because its impossible to put back on without it falling off . If it needs an adhesive , what do I get . I did an internet search and found zilch on the subject .

Small Lake Temps & Turnover
On your 8 foot deep lakes , there really isnt going to be a turnover like on deeper bodies . The water is not deep enough to form layers .

Fuel line clog , primer bulb ? help
I have a 115hp evinrude. Sometimes it runs great other times it loses power . I'm thinking there is a clog somewhere . The primer bulb squeezes until its hard and stays that way but I kind of think that is where the problem is . I just used it every day for a week and squeezed the primer every morning . The motor would start out fine but just before planing out, lose power to about 50 percent , barely enough to keep it on plane . The last morning I did not squeeze the primer and it ran pretty good . It did cut out a couple of times but regained itself . I'm thinking a fuel line issue or bad primer . It starts and idles fine .

Gimmicks and gadgets curse?
Those cammo wrapped rods are a gimmick . I bought three last year on clearance.Not because of the cammo but they felt nice in the store . Man those things are heavy .I dont konw how much weight the wrap adds to it but it feels like a lot .Yesterday was the last day I'll use one of those things . I have three rods on order to replace them .

What’s your most successful lure?
In my life Texas rigged plastics by far . But the last several years I have been going to them less and less . Not on purpose , I'm just having a lot of success with other lures . A lure gets hot I'll fish it to death .

Hey White Bass guys and gals...
I like to fish flats near drop offs 'watch for gulls" between 8 and 15 foot deep . A 1/4 ounce Red Eye Shad will wear them out . Lift and drop , or a steady retrieve with pauses . Drum and catfish are often found with the whites . I rarely find largemouths mixed in .

Fave riprap baits?
I like cranks best . Deep Wee R's and Model A's follow the contour down pretty well . Cast shallow at about a 45 degree angle, let the crank follow the contour down to about 8 foot .
- If you only can take one lure/bait and combo

Does anyone else exclusively target smallmouth?
Some folks like Maryann others Ginger . I prefer Ginger .
