Abu Garcia Ambassadeur Upgrades/modifications?
Im not in anyway knowledgeable on those conventional circle reels. but as far as the levelwind is concerned could you just reel your line all the way in, and then keep reeling until the level goes to where you want it? the line wouldnt move because its all the way in, only the levelwind. Would that work?

Disney World Bass Fishing

Pike On Yum Dinger?
Tonight i set the hook on something big on a lake in southern michigan. The first thing out of my mouth to my buddy was,"we're going to need a bigger boat". And then my line went slack, my mono leader was cut. Ive never caught a pike so im not sure what they feel like. Is there any tell tale signs? I was throwing a yum dinger into some weeds and it hit when i twitched it. The lake is known for pike so im guessing thats what it was, either that or a bull shark. I still havent ruled that one out. Either way im really starting to reconsider the mono leader i use. Would a fluro leader be better than mono if i hook into the occasional pike?

Fragile? Then Don't Send It By The Usps
i was shipping my laptop back to the manufacturer with fedex to have an issue with it fixed. I told the woman what it was and everything, she then asked if it would survive a fall from around 6ft. I said maybe that i wasnt sure, the package hp had sent me was pretty sturdy, she then proceeds to lift it up and drop it onto the table.from about 3 ft up. Ive never shipped anything through fedex again.

Lets Play Weigh That Fish!
so far between all the guesses ( leaving out the 1lb guess) the average of the guesses is 5lb. I can live with that.

Lets Play Weigh That Fish!
ive got an s4. I find its a real pain to try to hold the fish up next to my head while taking the shot plus anything of any size is nearly impossible to get the whole fish in.

Lets Play Weigh That Fish!
I already placed the order for one. Now i just need to get me a girlfriend to take pictures of me holding these beasts. Unfortunately buying one of those is largely frowned upon here.

Lets Play Weigh That Fish!
sorry my arm was shaking from this holding this beast up for so long. I managed to hook him with like 5 out of the 6 hooks on both trebles.

Lets Play Weigh That Fish!
the head was probably about an inch off the ground No, the only winner here is me. I have no clue how much the fish actually weighs. I do know that i am placing an order for a scale as we speak. No more unknowns.

Lets Play Weigh That Fish!
I know you guys hate these, but i caught what is in my fishing career a decent sized fish. Hit him on a manns -1, the pond he came out of is filled with spots so at first i thought it was a small spot.That is until he got about 10 yards from me. Then he really put his weight into it, and i realized he was much bigger. ( i know i know, dont lay the fish on the ground, but i was fishing alone and it was the only way i could snap a picture of him) my shoe size is 12 if that helps. Please excuse the crocs, i had not planned on making any photo appearances.

Bigger Baits, Bigger Fish....
I think the only reason why big baits catch more big fish is that the smaller fish wont hit them as much. That is not always the case of course. I think the biggest issue is finding a big fish. And throwing it what it wants. Im not sure how picky of eaters bass are, but Im pretty big and i can tell you that i can eat a brat or those tiny little sausages. You just have to get it in front of me.

Golf Course Fishing
Op just needs to be banned. He makes it clear on his twitter page that its just a joke to him. Its called trespassing, not to mention the site specifically mentions no talk of illegal activity. Im sure plenty of people here have fished in places they didnt have permission to, but the difference between them and you is they dont have big mouths. Sooner or later thats going to get you into trouble.

Why Wont The Bass Bite
there isn't a lot of fish there? Try weedless rigging a 4 inch senko and see if that produces. Its kind of tough to say why you arent catching fish. What depth is it? what kind of vegetation and cover would also be useful. Have you tried throwing any hard baits at them?

For Those Of Us That Fish A Senko Worm
can you just wrap the center of the senko with electrical tape and heat it up a tad? Thats what i always used for heat shrink. i may try that out with some yum dingers i have that i starting to rip.
