I haven't changed to 10 yet. Kinda scared to, every time I change, something screws up.

Looks right to me, that's how I would rig it.

I thought everyone knew that when you go in for a pack of worms that you are suppose to buy a reel too !!!

I have got a Mann's 1984 catalog, they all are the Razorback family, I think the shallow divers were Pigs.

Loved them old Mann's lures. Use to have a bunch of them but they some how got away from me.

I use Z Man Shroomz in 1/10 and 1/16 with and without weedguard.

I am just the opposite. I have to use the side mirrors, looking around screws me up. I use to work for a power company. I learned how to back a line truck up with a 60 ft pole on a trailer and had to use the mirrors, no choice.

I got old and new and I love both, can't really tell much difference. They are my favorite jerk bait.

The reservoir that I fish is free. They tried to put a $30 yearly launch fee but received so much fuss they decided not to start it. I was for it because they were suppose to improve ramps but you never know what they were actually going to do with the money. The most I pay for fishing is $20 a day but it is a lake they only open about 3 times a year.

Congrats on the boat and all the upgrades. Sounds like you did it right. I am sure you will be super happy with the boat.

The Monkey got you bad but man that is some nice rods !!!

Can't go wrong with any Pflueger spinning reel. I had the Supreme XT and just picked up the President Limited. I really can't feel much difference between them, They also have the same gear ratio.

Oldham's jigs makes a pretty good weedless hook for tubes. http://www.oldhamjigs.com/

This since it is ABS plastic,

If you have to drag a boat to the water you would probably be better off with a kayak. If all the lakes had good ramps then I would go with the flat bottom jon and do a little fixing up on it.

What is a Bass Baby, what is it made of, picture of the front if possible.

I would say Bill Dance, watched him on TV forever. To me he is just a down home type of guy.

Normally I don't buy much a BPS but this sale looks pretty good.

Our reservoir is full of pads. You can't go anywhere in 33,000 acres and not find pads. The above post is exactly how I fish them. A Super Fluke can be deadly if the pads have some small openings.

The only mag I read is Bassmaster. I was a member for years and when I started fishing again I started reading it again.

I have tried other baits but to me, you can't beat the TRD and cut in half Zinkerz. Senkos will work but not as effective.

If you want a good FC, Sunline Sniper is what you want but I, like some, use mono for crankbaits. I want some stretch in my cranking line.

All I use to use was the Guido Bug, now mostly Christie Craw.

Good trouble shooting captain.

Like some others I use the Mann's Minus 1 and a Bagleys Honeybee.
