SPEEDBEAD.

Update? Anyone have an update?

As soon as I saw the Chuck Norris reference, I knew it had to be AJ. Dude has a serious man crush on Chuck ;D

Treating your braided lines with KVD Line and Lure will help it retain its natural color. Since I started using it, I havent noticed my lines fading at all. The product also seems to keep the braid from getting those little frayed strands.

So Chris, essentially you use your boat merely as transportation to spots where you fish from the bank? How often do you do this? I have read posts before where you said this and the bass chasing prey from deep to shallow makes sense, it just seems funny to have that nice boat of yours and not fish from it. (obviously not questioning your results, just trying to find the method behind the madness ;D)

Mike, I am building a makeshift chicken pit with cinder blocks. I have two cooking grates for the top of the pit. If CJ has the blocks for me before Monday night and Kent doesnt mind cooking over a wood fire, he can use that to cook his food. Just let me know.

I want one... ;D

I blanked in a tournament today fishing in 42.5 degree water. I am ready for something a bit closer to 60+. Come on Kentucky lake...

That's what I'm talking 'bout!!!! Bring on the sunshine

How does 7 days until Kentucky lake sound to you?

Looks like the 10 day forecast for Hardin, KY shows temps around 60 and sunny skies on Saturday and Sunday next weekend. Sure beats the 40 degree weather here right now

Why dont you guys send it to someone going on the Bass Resource Road trip? There are a lot of guys to choose from, maybe get a pic of the lure with a bunch of members.

Mike, are you filling in for the Monday dinner or will it be a "on your own" night? I am sure I could come up with something if need be. Let me know. Jimzee and AJ, I will be bringing some more cooking stuff now if that is ok with you. If you dont mind, may I hook up to one of the propane bottles for cooking some of my stuff. If anyone is still interested in helping out for the Tuesday dinner, please let me know. I would like to compile a list of food contributions so that I know what I still need to get. Mike, get in touch if you need anything from me.

Awesome looking boat man!!! Make sure you inflate that right tire on the trailer.

Now we know where all the Bailout Money actually ended up! I'm Jealous!!! :) I didnt know the Mexican government was doing that too..... Raul is from the deep, deep south brotha.

Welcome to the board. Try a palomar knot. It is what I use for most of my fishing.

Down boy!!! Down... Wasnt aware.

You are going to have to spell out the website. The filters on here are preventing you from posting...

:-X Probably wouldnt be my first choice, but I cant say it hasnt produced. The spinnerbait would be better, but.... Depends on the "where"

If you are fishing in more open water, try sliding a treble hook onto the shaft of your single hook. You can use a keeper on the single hook, much like adding a trailer to a buzzbait/spinnerbait. Around the laydowns and other cover, swing up with the rod using a single hook. If you can stand it, pause when you feel the initial hit. Personally, I can't do it but it sounds good in theory. ;D

Oh, they will work. Depending on what you are throwing, they displace quite a bit of water. Bass will eat them. Keep throwing with confidence and you will hook up.

' Hello Mcfly! We have smallmouth like that. THE NEW RIVER Even the ELK and the GREENBRIER has fish of this size, maybe not the numbers of the New or Erie but they can be found Yeah i'm aware they exist, but lets see some pics of people actually holding them. I can drive to where smfisher lives(new river) and nail 1- 3lb fish for days. The 5lb+ are far and few between unless you head to one TN or Erie. Get your camera and lets go. Make sure you pick me up on the way to Erie. Fish, that is an awesome pic man. Keep em coming.

Flukes? One or more?

Apparently someone noticed...Hmm, it seems that there is no "kiss up" or "brown noser" smiley Close enough. Thanks Greg and Deb.

im sure there is a bar at the lodge. If not , there is gonna be a bar at campsite 30. Yeah, depending on the weather. LOL I remember last year thinking, "Alright, lets sit outside and have a couple beers." Then I realized if I sat outside any more, I might get frostbite.... All I know is it better be warmer in Kentucky than it was in Alabama. ;D I never expected I would see how well the heater worked in the Bass Bus.

Stop it, stop it, stop it...... I dont know if I can take another 11 days of this. ;D
