Chains......all the way. Crossed over all the time. Only way to go. took my cables off when I got my boat.....never looked back...didn't have to, I knew it was secure.

7 foot med. action Bass Pro Bionic blade. I use a Penn 430ssg reel with 10 lb. braid, no leader.

we're only old as we tell ourselves how old we are......I think Yoda best said it.......LOL....

have you tried Grainger? sometimes they have weird stuff that no one else has.

after watching this I realized I need to start selling "Hooked on Phonics" ......I could be rich....LOL. Great video though..very entertaining.

Amen brother..........

just slow down.......you'll catch em.......

you will have a great time with Mike......great fisherman....better person.

matching a rod to reel is all about balance.....with that being said there are exceptions.....you have to figure what you are using the combo for then go off of that. I have a catfish rod that is a 25 year old 7 foot Ugly Stick that is paired with an older Daiwa Procaster PMA15 model. not a big reel at all, but for what I use it for it just flat out works. like WRB said hire a guide , you will be so much farther along than if you didn't.

Amen......

If I sell my house and live on the boat........my wife might have something to say about it though........

Tequilla...Culprit color.....Bass Assasin...Native Shiner....another Culprit color...Blue Ice...

7 to 1 .....most of my reels are that......I throw a lot of bottom baits.....

all directions works for me......my favorite is south....for me that's Okeechobee...

not lucky things but favorites.........

I fish............

I have a 16 X 20 foot shed..........my wife won't go in......she's afraid of snakes.....LOL....

a couple times a week....at least..sometimes when I don't have time to take the boat, then a lot more....

this.....

Largemouth..........but a Snook is a very close second.....Tarpon 3rd.

the helicopter lure...........omg.....wth was I thinking?

my flasher is from the 1998 collection of Bluewater Lowrance series.......still works great.

Gentry is a waste of time. Jackson is a good lake but it is out in the middle of nowhere and like SC53 said you will worry about your stuff. For me I would go to Toho or Cypress. Less traffic than Kissimmee. Also don't count out East Lake Toho. The residential canals fish great this time of year. Good luck. I"ll be at Headwaters.....

Manns Razorback Pig...shallow runner....best crankbait I ever used.

# 1 bait Gambler Burner Worm. 2nd place goes to Zoom SS U tail 6" both T rigged ....they accounted for 90% of my catches of the year. To say I use worms a lot is an understatement.
