Wacky Rig saves the day!

Creek Bassin'
beautiful day. Hit up the creek this morning...low 70's, light wind. Bought some zoom speed craws in blackberry, been wanting to try them for awhile. Nothing today, tried a green pumpkin/char. tail trick worm, nothing. BUT!...the turtles are out! That's a good sign, have been keeping track of when I would see them appear this year. The bugs and minnows are also out. You know what that means.

Question for Costa Owners
I would not hold my breath on costa warranty. My rx costas ...they would not warranty at all, even from an authorized eye dr./costa rx dealer. I was pretty po'd about that.(RX costa cost mucho dinero). The arms started deforming...Costa can hug a root. Just google costa warranty horror stories, the past 10 years, their warranties have become vaporware. Buy what YOU like, just giving some info, first hand.

Fishing friendly campgrounds
There is a place north of me, Frank Jackson state park in Alabama. Nice campground on a lake. Have not camped or fished there yet. Been wanting to, just never fell into place yet...

BPS Classic - dissapointing turnout
I don't go to the "events", but I stopped in a local bps on Friday...looking to buy "something". I was so under impressed, I left with nothing. The sales were nothing to drive over there for, I just happened to be right there. Only thing I saw worth getting was the tungsten bullet weights on sale for $4.29, but I reupped a during the xmas sale at TW.

Pros And Cons.. Shakey Head VS T Rig
I use the t-rig more often. -I fish a creek more often than I do a lake. -T-rig comes through the submerged branches and limbs better than the shakey head...the creek I fish is full of the stuff. I will use a shakey head in the creek, when I either get tired of losing expensive tungsten bullet weights, or just try something different. Shaket head is pretty good for cold water, not much structure in the deep areas of some of the lakes I do fish. Other than that, I have good success with the t-rig just about everywhere.

Creek Bassin'
Hit it up after work today. Throwing an 1/8 shakey head with a watermelon trick worm. Got windy...3rd cast, reeling in, thought I got hung up, did not feel a bite, but surprise, caught a decent sub 2#er. No more action, light started to fade....and I didn't even lose a rig today. I just had a feeling that shakey head would not last more than a few casts, but I came home with it still on. yay shakey head.

Life As A Champion
A-Jay, Great quote(regardless of who said it). Only things I can add is, another great quote from Jonathon Gilliam- "When you have a plan, you respond, when you don't you react." So, plan on getting punched in the face sometime. I must disagree with the reaction to adversity is the definition of a person. But, that's another subject, I will keep it positive.

Creek Bassin'
Hit up a small lake up the road today. Never had any luck there...and still don't. Too much grass for t rig or c rig. Threw a red eye shad for awhile...too much grass for that too. Threw a keitech swimbait...Nothing. A few boats out, talked to one guy, said he caught some big ones last year. Don't really like driving an hour to this place, got bored. Almost 20 years I have tried fishing at this place...not often, but once in awhile. Never even got a bite yet.
