Add me to the list. Not only have I never heard of it, I've read the 'definition paragraph' above four times and I understand it less now than I did after the first time I may need pictures

I use a spoon rack, but I don't use these lures...not sure it would be practical for lures that are taken down and put back up regularly

Not EVERYTHING you need to know, but good start of things to think about http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/148227-boat-options/

The world of interwebs forums would be a very boring place if all members accepted that answer.

many (most?) do. Commonly referred to as 'backing'

Paint or dye white feathers, perhaps?

Amazing to me that we're still 'arguing' over what we believe a bass sees.... and thinks.

Wow. Nice

I believe fish will can see the line. The question is: what do those little fish-brains do with the information?

Ah. I'm torn on the visibility issue. I fish some soupy water and don't worry about it. But, also, I haven't dismissed the argument (maybe Bill Murphy or Buck Perry?) that felt the line leads fish to the bait sometimes. I must admit that I've seen small bass near the surface checking out the line and then try to eat the bait as it comes up to the boat....could be a whole lotta different going on inside the head of a six-pounder, however.

Why?

What if you tip your laptop onto its side while you post it?

I wear line cutter on lanyard around my neck. Fortunately, my Wilderness has great little pockets on both sides by my thighs - deep, with a rubber web half-cover to keep them out of my way when I don't need them. Always have pliers, scale, fish grips, bag of plastics, etc in those handy spaces. Tackle bag goes in the hatch right in front of my seat. I'm pretty new to this kayak thing, but I'm happy with how handy stuff is so far. In the crate, I keep one long 360 box with most everything else: frogs, hardbaits, terminal, etc. I like that its an extra long box, sticks up and is easy to reach.

Similar to Lucky Gia, with strong British Blues Rock leanings (Stones, Who, Animals, Yardbirds, Fleetwood Mac (Peter Green, NOT Stevie Nicks)..etc.) Bos'n, I feel a little sorry for you and the rest of the Children of the '80's....I discount pretty much the entire decade, as far as rock goes, save for maybe half a dozen albums....Number of the Beast, Heaven and Hell, Screaming for Vengeance, Holy Diver, Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me....off the top of my head, that's about it...you can have the rest.

As KMac said, you'll get a range of answers. For me, its neither. I don't think I'll ever put flouro on a spinning reel again. I like Yo-Zuri hybrid.....jury still out on braid on spinning gear...I like it, but don't love it.

Somewhere along the line I decided that I had to use palomar with braid. Been doing it that way since my first braid. Just watched this http://www.saltstrong.com/articles/best-fishing-knot-for-braided-line-swivel-hook-lure/ Good, simple explanations and videos -- I'm trying the 'improved' uni next time out

I've stopped cutting my fingernails really short. Oh....and, Deep, you should have warned that the video is not safe for work....I was laughing so hard my boss came by to see what I wasn't working on

I agree with this to a large degree. Full disclosure; I fish from 14' boats and kayak...if I had 21' bass boat, I might feel different I like to fish for bass and I like to catch bass first and foremost. But, I admit that I get quickly annoyed with: jet skis, water skiers, constant big wakes, busy docks where everyone seems to want to talk and interrupt my fishing, boaters with loud music (this is a big one to me...turn that thing down!)....pulling up to a desirable cove and finding three party pontoons essentially killing the whole bay for me......

I like it all right, but it has been something of a challenge. First, I got no name jig heads because everyone was out of good ones for a while. Straightened out the hook on a monster the first time out. The right heads fixed that problem, but not the others; I hate that you have to glue the worm to the heads; and the open hooks very trying on a lot of waters.

Out of business? First heard. That would be distressing. I'm a big fan of their weights. (In fact, I've been using the Rockhopper the last couple of weeks and I love it.) The two biggest differences for me between the mojo weights and a bullet are 1. The mojo slip sinker comes through weeds better than any weight I've tried, and 2. Without pegging, the weight seems to 'find a better place along the line'....that doesn't make a lot of sense, I suppose, but when I use a bullet, even a light one, it tends to settle down to the hook fairly quickly; the mojo seems to take a longer time to make its way down to the knot -- that is, it acts a little more like a c-rig --- the weight, when it stays up the line longer, I feel, gives the fluke more freedom for its erratic, jerky nature...whereas the bullet slides to the knot quickly and handicaps the movement some...probably hogwash, but that's how it plays in my mind and if it affects my confidence, I guess that's all that really matters sometimes

I use 1/16 oz mojo slip weights with flukes. Not weightless, I suppose, but pretty light. And it comes thru weeds far better than any other weights I've tried

IIRC, we did discuss this with Bobby U. I had been seriously considering dipping some worms in the can of bacon grease on the counter. Pretty sure Bobby said that something scientific about the enzymes or amino something or other and convinced me that it would be a waste of time and bacon grease.

I might have exaggerated a little

I'm the 'cheapest' person I know. I drive 10 miles and use half gallon of gas to save 2 cents per gallon. That said, I have been buying better and more expensive baits and been happier. The days of no-name Walmart and no-name FleaBay lots are past...for me.

I like it. However, this is the line that KVD L&L was designed for! Works like magic. Once conditioned, it is fantastic.
