Where do I get the chicken feathers ? Thanks ,T

Hope someone can shed some light on the way to make my own feathered treble hooks (like on a pop-r). Where can I get chicken feathers for this purpose and what is the easy way to go about it ? Thanks ,T

Those were the 2 best in my opinion.

All the brilliant minds on this board and no one can come up with a homemade concoction for Real Magic or KVD line conditioner ? Tell me this is not so my Bass Resource brothers. Some one come forth and solve this mystery. T

I originally spooled some 12# on my Alphas and tried fishing with a 1/4 oz shaky head with bad results (short casting distance and backlash). I then spooled it on my Chronarch and used it with 1/2 oz CR and the stuff works great. Conclusion is the line is more stiff than the softer flourocarbon lines and throwing smaller weighted lures is difficult. With heavier lures it seems to excel as the stiffness factor does not set in and for the price is a bargain. T

That reel can be had for under $70 ,check Simmons sporting goods on e-bay.

Good choice

I know he doesn't service reels anymore ,read the articles section on how to do it yourself.

I hear ya loud and clear ,I like all the guys you mentioned except Coselle. I have (had) no use for that guy. T

This would be the ultimate thrill if only I had the balls to do it. T

I did not intend to step on your new project but thought I could get an idea of the ingredients for the average joe on how to get around the high cost of the .50 cent cost spray we have have been paying $8.99 for. Any insights that you want to share ? T

Silicone is petroleum based as the other 2 are not. My suspicion is that the current line conditioners are some form of glyceryn and water.Boring or not I figured all the fishermen on this board are tired of spending $8.99 for a small bottle of this stuff . I imagine someone out there (chemist ,pharmacist) would know how to make this stuff.

Any body make their own line conditioner ? Something like reel magic or the new KVD spray. It can't be rocket science. T

Tailgaters and my least favorite the clerk at the store thats too busy talking on the phone to ring up your sale in a timely manner. T

It's not a joke to Aaron Martens , he won the Bassmasters tournament on Lay lake and $100,000 primarily using this set up skipping docks. Just kidding !

I use mine for TR worms 1/4 oz or less. I use my less expensive rods for "no feel techniques" as I do not see the benifit of using a high modulus rod for jerk baits etc...

The Beverley Hillbillies cracks me up also Soap was a great one. T

Very funny ,your comments had nothing to do with this thread.

I was wondering the same thing. Kinda odd being an OU fan in the middle of Razorback country. Do your neighbors and friends know ??

I agree, the 243 is an excellent varmit/deer cartridge and is inherently accurate.

Call me an optimist , Texas has not shown their hand yet. Some say OU by30 points UTs gonna put a TEXAS size A** whippen on those Okies. Hook em ye of little faith come back into the fold and support our Horns. Matt is right we own these guys , don't forget that. TB
