It ain't true.

BPS should be hiring for the Holidays.

Look forward to seeing his posts again.

You know, just a suggestion. Why don't you move this thread to the "Fishing Reports" section. Not everybody checks the "Southeast Fishing" section. And I'm sure they would be interested. Nice fish by the way.

Last year it looked like we were on the right track, but this year...

Your'e probably putting it on a little thick. Try putting it on a little thinner. It's better to get the eyelet clean before it cures, so a good trick is using a toothpick to get the extra blob out.

GROSS. Did you weigh it...the rat I mean.

Now would be a good time to pull the trigger on a swimbait.

I didn't know the Foxboro store was in Indianapolis.

Wow. Get shanked by KVD with a jerkbait, then Klein helps takes the trebles out. Painful? Yes. Great story? You better believe it.

Also, those tackle boxes on the left are great for swimbaits 6" and under.

If your using the Lake Fork Stinger hook (which is awesome), you can really swing. Once that frog is gone, WHAM. If you don't think that's the right way of setting the hook, watch the Tacticallbassin' frog videos. They are the two of the best frog fishermen I've seen in a while, look how they set the hook. I don't know about you, but I'm gonna follow their advice.

Those are so cool.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

I am really not a fan of BPS. They are a quantity over quality retailer. They kinda scratch the backs of the HUGE lure companies (Strike King, Zoom, ect) , which isn't a bad thing. They don't sell a ton of those brands that are really good at one or two things. TW is where it's at.

I seriously wish I didn't read that.

Smelt, if they amounted to any size they would be kings of the ocean.

That's good to know. Is that it in your profile pic?

Nice, I was missing the forest for the trees on that one. Thanks for the answer.

What does HL and PL mean. Does it matter, or is one better?

Co-Poly. Less stretch = better hook penetration, which is better for single hook baits. Ande Backwoods Co-Poly (my favorite) is super cheap, with decent quality.

Ben Parker watch out!

Sweet, post your results on it. I've had my eye on that.

He later went on strike because they wouldn't give him a better stool.
