What Damage To A Bass If Swallowing Rubber Baits?
^^^ This is why I throw the plastics in the bottom of the boat and then they go in the trash when it is cleaned out.

How Can I Get Better At Hook Setting?
What setup are you talking about. It depends on many things. Rod? Reel? Line? Lure? Give us those things and we will all be able to help you out better.

Hobie Mirage Pedal Kayaks - A Little Rant
Having a peddle yak is like a 20ft with a 250hp. A regular yak is a 18ft aluminum with a 90hp. . They both can enter a tournament but only one can win. Both have different price points. No matter what ya got, you'll want more. If you have a bigger motor you'll be wondering what's on the next point rather that concentrating on where you are. Get what you can afford. It's simple really.

Icast 2014
Gene Larew is supposed to be showing a new bait that is coming out. The owner is slamming them in Michigan at the present time with the bait. I'm anxious to see the bait due to the Biffle bug being a big hit!

What Am I Doing Wrong?
I'd re-spool starting off with some cheap mono as backing. Then wind the braid on with plenty of tension. If you don't, and it is digging into itself, whatever lure you have on will go buh bye!

Why Can't I Grow Anything But Tomatos?
It's best to water everything including your lawn in the morning. When the soil is wet overnight, it can cause moldy soil. Get a soil test kit and send it in for analysis. Or just like stated above, miracle grow once a week.

Zman makes one like it too. It's called the FatZ, I believe. I have never used Zman products before. There was a guy at the Zman booth at the 2013 Classic expo that rubbed me the wrong way. That's where I'll leave that.

Fathers Day Gifts
With things being tight as usual around here, I get to pick out some gear next payday. I get the gift of being a father everyday and I count my blessings. I cherish it everyday because there are many men out there wishing they could have children that can't. I know of a few that would be great fathers. Every year I get him a McDonalds gift card. He goes up for coffee every morning with his other retired buddies. I threw him a change up one year and he asked me where the hell was his Micky D gift card? All with a smile on his face! LOL

Keep thinking that and I'll keep catching bass on huge baits regularly.

I Want To Go, But...
I feel for you. I don't get to do as much as I'd like too. I missed an entire bow season when I had a rotator cuff repaired.

If he puts more into advertising then unfortunately the prices will go up.

Pond Fishing In Oklahoma
Jacobfoote, what he is talking about is that your post sounds more like a plug for Savage other than a post. I understand you are new. As we all once were. I remember some of my "not so great" posts as well. When you get a chance stop by the introduction thread. Introduce yourself and let us know something about you. Then chime in on some posts. Make some suggestions. I can tell you from experience on here that most everyone will ignore posts like the one you posted above. The reason being, you are new. For the peeps on here to take you serious, you need to make a respectable amount of posts. Just my 2 cents. Welcome to the forum fellow Okie!

Got A Gameplan
You afford what you can! I started off with a 2 piece spinning outfit. I was texas rigging a 7" power worm. That was 24 years ago. It caught a ton of fish then and your setups will catch a bunch of fish too! On another note. I think of my next outings the second I come off the water. Sometimes they are a month apart. I never stop thinking about them and I always prepare a hundred times over!

It is the nature of the beast my friend. I have my two spinning reel loaded up with the 8lb test. It is good line.

Just Joined The Curado I Club
BPS is the way to go. People that put their order in with TW are just now getting them. I know of one that put the order in when they offered the pre-order back in February. I purchased mine on the 6 pay option as well and received mine 3 weeks later. You'll love the reel. Also give one of the Ci4's a shot. You'll love that beauty as well!

Dont Count Me Out Yet.....
Just keep swimming bigbill! I know but don't know what you are going through. My dad had prostate cancer and 2 of his lower vertebrae are all but deteriorated. He is now getting steroid shots for his pain. At the present time he's feeling better! Keep fishing and doing the things you love. Keep up the good work and keep us posted on your success!!!!!!

Punchin With Lead?
Sorry man, not buying that. If this is a problem then it is the person setting the hook or the rod. It isn't the weight.
