After all these years and new baits to come out, I still use the old Smithwick Rogue, cheap and catches fish.

2003 Nissan Frontier with a little over 100,000 miles pulls my 1996 17ft Lowe pretty well.

Happy 4th to everyone, have fun and be safe!!!

Might want to check Hanes website out, they have long sleeve spf50 shirt up to 3XL for $10. I have 4, for the money, they are hard to beat. https://www.hanes.com/shop/hanes/hanes-mens-long-sleeve-t-shirt-24270?categoryId=21076

Tackle Warehouse 4th July sale has started!!! Just dropped $200+.

Some days are diamonds, some days are stones Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone. Hope you get your rod and reel back.

I have always had my license with me when I fished but now I don't have to worry about it, over 65 years of age in Mississippi you are not required to have a license. Second thought, I guess I have to worry that I have my drivers license with me.

Old Lews BB1, still have 2 in use.

Anyone know how long the sale will last at Academy?

I have used Berkley Sensation with great results as far as line twist go. I did go back to Power Pro yellow with leader just because I need a line I can see. I still use Sensation on my cranking reels and love it. I think it is worth trying. Sensation is a mono line.

I know about "old school" shade tree stuff. He didn't forget hammer, that what the end of the Crescent is for.

Got the same 9 inch Kleins in my boat just for cutting hooks if I get a hook stuck in me.

Used Magic Eraser on mine then sealed it, worked great!!

Just to echo what Sam said, go get checked. I go to the dermatologist every 6 months. He freezes at least five places every visit. I have had 3 places cut out, 2 being cancer. I am 68 and lived in the sun for at least 64 of them years. I take it very serious. I wear a big hat with the flap in the back, long sleeves and gloves plus use sun screen. It is never too early to start covering up. I shared this in one thread but I just wanted to show what can happen. As bad as it looks, it really turned out pretty good, you can hardly see a scar.

I have settled on Power Pro hi viz yellow with 7# test Sunline FC Sniper, works for me.

I use Loctite Super Gel when I have to glue plastic to the jig, works great. It will leave a little plastic if you want to take it off but you can use a knife and scrape/cut off the little plastic that is left on the jig.

I believe the Tackle Warehouse July 4th sale will be 15%, the only time it is 20% is Black Friday, could be wrong.

Lews David Fritts lure retriever. I don't know anything that will be easy in the wind.

I use a small Plano tackle box that I won by catching a tag fish in my local lake. I use it when I go with one of my fishing buddies. It carries all I need for a day fishing including plastics. I don't think I ever had to ask to borrow something.

I use the same cleaner/cloth I get at my eye doctor, does great.

Z Man TRD, really any of the Z Man products because they stand up on the bottom and will always have some movement.

Mississippi does have a state sale tax but my order from TW was not taxed.

I have used this, pretty good carpet. https://www.bassboatseats.com/collections/bass-boat-carpet/products/boat-trailer-bunk-carpet

Go on down to Walmart and pick up some Big Game in 15# test like others have said. Good line for the price.

10# test Power Pro in Hi Vis yellow with 7# Sunline Sniper FC leader.
