No doubt about it, life jackets and kill switches saves lives !!!!!! Sorry your buddy lost all his equipment but glad to hear that he is still around to talk about it.

Never used snaps and never will. I like the idea of cutting off some line at the lure when changing baits.

Don'think it really matters.

A 1/2 oz. spinnerbait, chart./white skirt, single Colorado blade.

Nearly always a twin tail. Don't know why but I have always done it.

Amazing how the wife remembers all the bad things you did but never remember the good things. ?

16# Sunline Sniper. Throws as far as I need.

Crankin', Topwater - Mono Frog, Pitching - Braid Everything else - FC

I am 67 and don't have much joint pain. I do stretches and walking. I also take glucosamine chondroitin and apple cider vinegar with mother every morning. May not work for everyone but it does for me.

I am half way there. I have limited my colors to green pumpkin and june bug. I might try some more colors, but basically these are my 2 main colors. As far as shapes, this is where I am weak. I try all kinds of lizards. worms, craws. If a new shape comes out, it is at least 2 packs.

Got my money early this morning.

Thanks !!!!! Just saved $15 on a new Lews Spinning rod. They had already marked it down $30, so I really saved $45 !!!!!!

Poe's and Bombers.

No. I don't like split grips. All of my rods, but one, are full cork handles. Maybe I just too old to change. The only rod that is split is my pitching rod. I throw all of my off shore fishing with two hands and I really like the way cork feels.

Anything Z Man or Yamamoto.

According how old it is, you may not even find a transducer that would work. I would probably just buy a new one, you can get a new one for pretty cheap now days with GPS.

I use mostly single Colorado, whether it is clear or stain. If fishing shallow, I will keep it just under the surface. It is really what you have confidence in.

Most of my fish this summer has come from a Senko or TRD.

Probably in the 80's, great reels. I still have 2 of them. Gear ratio is 4:3.1. Good crankbait reel.

If the creek is 20 feet, it will draw all of it. Seems like when I record through Quick Draw it is pretty wide, wider that I thought it would. To get to Q D, you will have to go to the navigation charts then hit menu, then quick draw contours, last. start recording.

I have always used a 5.1:1 ratio, no use to change now. I like and use Lew's BB1. I pair that up with a Lew's David Fritts Perfect Crankbait rod with 14# mono, Sunline Supernatural. Put on a Bandit crankbait and I am ready to go !!!

Couldn't agree more. Have both Med. and Med./Heavy. I only wish they still made the 6'6" for short range shallow crank baits. I think they are $79 at most stores.

My eye doctor sells a bottle of cleaning solution and a small rag. I use this to clean my sunglasses/glasses and also my screen on my fish finders. I keep several at home and one in my boat.

Think you are making a good choice in getting the med. I tried M/L but just wasn't satisfied with it. Got a Lews 6'6" med/f and love it.

After seeing the Fulton F2 on your boat, I ordered one for my Lowe last night, been thinking about getting one for a while. Had to get free shipping so I ordered some Boat Buckles along with it. ?
