  1. With ball bearing swivels the blades will spin when dropping through the water. I think thats important.
  2. I just have a Plano box with no dividerss. I put several spinnerbaits/buzzbaits in plastic covers and toss them in.
  3. We had a stereo console. I asked for Black Sabbath Vol 4 for Chrismas when it was released. I got it and played part of it Christmas morning. Dad made me turn that noise off. I had to play it when he wasnt home.
  4. They work just like the ads. I like them on rip rap.
  5. I only got to go twice this spring until surgery has set me back' I had productive days for numbers not size. Caught my fish on Flying Lure. Yep the one from the infomrecials. Bomber Prop A. which is a Long A Minnow with a tail prop. Home made spinnerbait T rigged Rage Tail Cut R worm.
  6. Todays hooks are a lot better than when I first started fishing jigs. I bought them by the dozen stapled to a strip of card board for 79 cents a piece. Didnt have any issues with them. Didnt know any better. I sharpened the hooks before use , touched them up as needed. Dont remember ever having a hook fail or straighten out. But I dont catch double digit bass either.
  7. I like beetle spins for river smallies too. You can always assemble custom lures any way you like. I use DOA jig heads and shad bodies with a beetle Spin arm.
  8. Dirty water black and black/chartreuse salt craw. Clear water balck with brown trailer or brown with black trailer.
  9. I am the worse frog fisherman. I have had luck with them, mostly bad luck.
  10. My feelings exactly. When I caught my first bass on a Texas rig around1976 and I remember it well, I was immediately was boosted to the next level of bass fishing hiearchy.
  11. I have a bucket full of used soft plastics. Made a Plaster of Paris mold and poured my own in the 80's . I whittled the worm out of a piece of wood. It didnt come out as planned. I made some other molds that I think will work , just havent tried them. Heck, i dont even know where they are.
  12. Learn to cast decently. Not overhand casting, any fool can do that. Side csting , roll casting., low trajectory , accurate cast.
  13. The easiest lure I have found to skip is the Z-Man Pop Shadz.
  14. I have the piscifun scales and have been mostly satisfied. The fish never weigh as much as my eyes tell me.
  15. The same as a shorter worm. You can get by with a lighter weight for a slower fall.
  16. I used up my supply of long ribbon tail worms fishing in brush piles. I have so many soft plastics that I decided to quit buying more unless I absolutely need something. I still have a new pack of 12 inch black grape jelly worms. I gave a young cousin a grocery bags full of soft plastics.
  17. I would love a Harry and Charlie hat. What was Harrys favorite lure? A 10 inch scuppernong Jelly worm? Or was it 12 inches?
  18. I catch a lot of deep bass with Fire Tiger Cranks.
  19. One of the lakes I fish , on the route home , there is a small town with a ice crean trailer . I always stop for an ice cream cone.
  20. I tie a piece of raw bacon to the trip and rub a little peanut butter on it. Rat and mouse traps.
  21. I do it occasionally. Itworks. I get hung up a lot then usually give up.
  22. Watch bass trac in Bassmaster elite events. Big bass are often caught in clusters, then nothing until the next spree. It happens repeatedly.
  23. Not me. I dont get to fish as much as I like, so if I'm on'em , I'm not changing.
  24. Its been a few years since I've done this. I have a bigger Pop R. Dont know what its called.I like to throw it mid day in the hot summer. I targeted the edge of main lake standing timber. Making as much commotion as I can. Short sharp rod snaps that spit water a distance. I've had 50 to 70 fish days doing this. I dont fish on those days anymore.
  25. I like female voices and have quite the play list. My wife doesnt care for a lot of it.
