The Footloose is a shallow bait. Only one bill length. I doubt Bandit wanted to take the time to take all those photos again when they already had color examples for the 100/200/300.

Why? :-?

Just 40 yards?

Same thing happened to a friend of mine. One week later he was dead.

How did I know what you had posted even before I read the text?

I've never heard of a 15" fish weighing 6.3 lbs. Looks like 14" and 15" to me. And going by this photo from Gator Grip's website: The 25" Golden Rule is graduated in 1/4" increments. The Golden Rule pictured is graduated in 1" increments. http://www.gatorgrip.com/golden-rule-measuring-boards2.html It's a nice little toad, but there's no way it is 24" and no way it's 6.3 lbs.

Quite easy if you read enough of their posts to get a good sample of the BS they are laying out. Almost as if some people are too stupid to remember what lie they told yesterday. I was catching up on episodes of The Bass Pro's today and in one particular Art of Angling, Rick Clunn made a very good point. Clunn stated that when you're dealing with young or new anglers, they tend to brag about every little thing. Spend a week here and you'll find that out very quickly. You know what, that's fine. I was a kid once, I know what it's like. Or at least I have a few memories of being a kid. There are people here who in the span of two to three weeks go from being a complete novice to proclaiming master-level proficiency. And they're not a poser? The net is full of shams, posers, wanna-be's and brown-eyes. Why would this forum be any different? I know we're all here to learn or share knowledge. It's just that some attempt to do the latter when they haven't done any of the former. :-X

What ever knot you use, lubricating the line/knot before cinching will ensure a quality knot. When tying a knot in flouro, the key is to lubricate properly (spit will suffice) and to cinch the knot S L O W L Y.

Like I said, it wasn't directed at you. There are a few who seem to hijack every post made about E TN and turn the thread into their own little SW TN playground. You're not one of them. I used your post as an object lesson.

The Guide Series Big Bait models are top notch rods.

149

7.9 oz. according to http://fish.shimano.com/catalog/fish/products/group_detail.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302036625&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395181270&bmUID=1204322525566

Just one per color?

And?

Velcro all the way!

65, mostly because I'm slow. The only ones I had never seen were North Dakota and Utah.

Looks like a Premier with a fancy paintjob and a bigger handle. I wonder how many fivebass will buy?

How do we know you aren't the gps/pt?

I use my own snot as a line and lure conditioner.

Well, I've got everything but the nekkid photo of my cousin. Thank God for that...

I would think that DeRosa's illness might have something to do with it. Other than that, I just cannot see a reason for the Cubs to make the deal. I guess that's why I'm sitting here and Jim Hendry is the GM.

At least it isn't Dutch. ;D

Boater's license?

All about maximizing your time on the water. Hard to do on a lake like Clarks Hill when everyone else is leaving you setting.
