Sub-Forum Title Word Search?
Lots of discussion about sub-forums lately....and I've been one to regularly say that I don't even use them...I try to read all new content every visit, so I don't notice them much. However, I was trying to search for threads specifically related to fishing for shad and I'm having a heck of a time. Likely user error, but is there a way for me to search for threads with 'shad' in the title...but ONLY in the 'Other Fish Species' sub-forum? Thanks for any assistance.

POLL: We need a Pond/Bank fishing forum!!
I might have worded it differently, but I think I have the same sentiments. I don't use sub-forums for reading. I don't much bank fish anymore...(but, a little.) So, I probably shouldn't even be allowed to vote...but I voted 'yes'

Chatterbait with a spring keeper
For no good reason, I decided years ago that bass hate cedar. I rarely get fish out of cedar laydowns and even pass them up a lot. I probably need to rethink that.

Chatterbait with a spring keeper
LOL! Forgive me, but I find this quite amusing...."I've got this tool designed, tested and proven to be a fish catching machine....but....I've never used it yet, but I bet I can make it better"....

Best "Chatterbait" style bait by brand
There's more than a few of us here that are apparently far more clueless than you, and have decided that we won't ever use the 'original' z-man chatters again. But, I'm not sure why you'd choose to throw out such a broad insult and then in the same paragraph say that you're going to try something different. ????

All-time best "Gimmick" lures
Yum Money Hound; only 'soft' plastic lure that I needed an electric drill to rig it....and forget about it compressing for a hook set.

Transducer install
No clue. But, it would cost all of about $5 to try it with duct seal, which is commonly used in kayaks and would be easily removed from the ducer and the boat, if it doesn't work.

Embarrassed and feeling a little duped
The universe of fishing sonar seems to be shrouded in unnecessary mystery. Except to Wayne, that is.

Bass Pro Shops XPS Hooks
Take it from one of the bigger cheapskates on BR: Steer clear of BPS hooks. NOT worth the savings....unless you like dull, rusty, fragile, bendy hooks, that is

C-Rig baits
Back before I knew better, I used to do pretty well with senko at the end of a c-rig.....been a number of years since I tried it, however

Is it a trap?
Once you admit to yourself that you cannot win, you'll be closer to finding peace. Go fishing. Get flowers on the way home. Bonus: The flowers might already be on sale by Sun afternoon.

Not Today
I had an hour to kill on Saturday and went to throw some casts from the boat ramp.....What stopped me, was all the hard water within 50 yards of the ramp. Sad day...

hula popper
Generally, I throw it within a half hour either side of sunrise/sunset. I mostly toss it in shallows around submerged laydowns. But, I will also throw it into boiling shad balls around sunset anywhere in the lake....Never had a lot of luck with them during the daylight hours....except for bluegills, that is.

Favorite Commercial?
I was blown away by this one....started to wonder if our local plumbers had gone local, but apparently, it was a local ad. I'm trying to find the second one...it was even better lololol...found the jingle singing, at least

Ned Rig: Alternatives to the TRD
I'd come to understand that Ned means elaztech. If you aren't using elaztech....well, what's the difference between Ned and shaky?

No home runs, but the NSX and the Audi R8 were definitely drool inducing.

What's my lure?
Thanks, guys. I haven't bought from BPS for years, but I'm going to grab a couple more of these. Pretty impressive action for incredibly little coin.
