Wasp Problem
My boat is in my yard and had the cover on it. I noticed today that there were some wasps buzzing around so I took the cover off and sure enough there's at least 6+ buzzing around. I've killed 5 with a fly swatter but that broke and there's more buzzing around...what can I do to keep them out of my boat?

Absolutely! A lot of States are starting to lift restrictions in a safe manner so hopefully it won't be too long before TW is back up and running at close to full capacity. I've been forced to order from other online vendors like Discounttackle.com in the meantime as with them you're still getting your order within 4 days.

Bass Masks?
With all this COVID-19 crap going around people are being told to wear cloth facemasks. i have some generic ones but are there any made with bass designs on them (not the buffs...the actual ear loop masks)? I'd like to get some...maybe with a Shimano bonefish design :).

I just had to write on here about Dick’s Sporting Goods shipping policies. I ordered a spinning rod from them and received it just the other day and it came in a large cardboard box when I open the box the rod was in there loose it was not wrapped in anything there was no packaging in the box it was just bouncing around in there completely loose. Luckily the rod was not damaged but this is an unacceptable shipping method of fishing rods by Dick’s Sporting Goods I mean come on they have to be able to afford rod tubes like everyone else.

The Elephant in the Room...Coronavirus!!!
Here in Vermont where I live our first positive case was from a doctor in a New Hampshire hospital who came back from a vacation in Italy with the symptoms, was told to self-quarantine but disregarded those instructions and attended at least two social functions, one of which was just across the border in Vermont and one of the people who attended this social function with that person now has it. That's how we got our first positive COVID19 case. I won't get political here but I do believe that people who are confirmed to have the disease and told to quarantine and disregard those orders and go out in public places should be able to have charges brought against them...especially a doctor who should know better!!!

The Elephant in the Room...Coronavirus!!!
I don't know...Italy has quarantined the entire an entire country of 60 million people. I mean it's not just the U.S. shutting stuff down, Europe has been doing it for a few weeks now and America had been resisting until just a couple of days ago, not sure how political it is or not but I'm sure America's politics effect just America and not Europe...especially since it seems we're one of the last major countries to start shutting anything down. To declare this a pandemic means the entire world is affected. Now I'm not saying this thing is not being blown out of proportion or not...that's up to the individual really and what they believe but if I have any loved ones who are older and/or may have an autoimmune disorder I may take it a little more seriously as those are the types of people who this disease seems to be affecting the worst. Regardless, places, organizations and entities across the globe are shutting down and some every day products are becoming hard to come by so this WILL affect everyone in some way. I;m just hoping within a couple of months we'll all be talking about the coronavirus in past tense as in the threat is over and everything will return to normal!

The Elephant in the Room...Coronavirus!!!
Okay, this is officially getting worrisome! I mean the NBA just cancelled the rest of it's season as one of their players just tested positive for coronavirus. With the way people are stocking up on anything remotely related to hand sanitizer/disinfectant, toilet paper, paper towels etc., malls and grocery stores look like Black Friday with stuff flying off the sleves, people fighting over merchandise. All large sporting events/music events or basically any event where at least 1,000 people are expected to attend have been cancelled nationwide...no March Madness. Stores completely out of the necessities and no idea when or if they will be getting more in. I have no doubts this will effect our fishing industry as well...just think about all of those JDM pieces of equipment and all of the others made in China or Korea...rods, reels, lures etc...how long before a lock down happens preventing them from being shipped and/or entering the country and dispersed to the distributors/stores here in the U.S.? I'm thinking tackle shops across the country whether brick and mortar or online based will be running out of stock fast and unable to get restocked any time soon...good-bye Shimano, Daiwa, Lews, Abu Garcia, 13 Fishing and so many more it would take several pages to list. This coronavirus is getting real now and it's very sobering. To all my fellow anglers, keep yourselves and your families safe...that's priority #1!!! I don't think it's too over the top to say God have mercy on us all. Spend time with your families, enjoy one another' company and just stay strong and persevere until this is over and it will be eventually...all things come to pass and so will COVID19 coronavirus. Things will eventually return to normal but in the meantime be safe ya' all!!!

I just picked up a Fury 795SB for $100 TYD from Dobyn's themselves. I called them up to see if they had any refurbs and they had some of these that were actually brand new and were just on display at a dealer and were returned so they've never been fished. I couldn't pass that up...it's $30 less than at TW. I would definitely call Dobyns directly, you never know what you might find :D.

Rat-L-Traps
Are rat-l-traps made for burning across the tops of grass or made to bounce off the bottom as far as retrieve goes? I'm trying to figure out what I have to cover the bottom bouncing yo-yo technique and the straight burning retrieve and what I still need.

Berkley Warpig Lipless Crank
Just wondering if the Warpig is better at bouncing off the bottom for the yo-yo style of retrieve or if it has a slower rate of fall and is better for burning over the tops of grass?
