  1. Will Brady beat the all time passing record on week four, when he returns to play the Pats in Foxboro in front of the invited HOF committee?? Brady is currently 1,154 passing yards behind Drew Brees for the NFL’s all-time career record. That means if Brady were to average 289.6 yards per game in 2021 — his average in 2020 — he would break the all-time record in Week Four, when the Buccaneers play at New England on Sunday Night Football.
  2. I was cautious removing bait from it's mouth
  3. Matt Gervais was five minutes into a swim at Lake St. Clair near Windsor, Ontario, when a big Muskie drilled his hand. The Muskie left some serious damage. Its toothy bite opened multiple puncture wounds on Gervais’s hand that required 13 stitches to close. The doctor who sewed up his hand found a Muskie tooth embedded in one knuckle. The incident took place in 7 feet of water about 50 yards from shore.
  4. I use Braid. And not sure I understand "occasionally foul up" never had this issue.

    Been shooting a CVA .45 Hunter Bolt for years using 100 grains of triple 7 pellets, and shooting Powerbelts aerolite bullets with darn good success. However this year powerbelt has discontinued the "Aerolite" for the new ELR .45 which best performs from with a 1/24 twist rate. My rifle is 1/28 anyone with any info or input ??????

  11. Find a guide on lake Seminole.
  12. I don't keep one tied on my jig rod, but I have thrown one this year, just not a favorite bait here in Fl.
  13. I respectfully disagree, If you have your rod loaded up and you are leaning over the side to "Lip" that fish and your lure disconnects from the fish you may find it lodged in your anatomy. If you do not "Swing" the fish in or use a net it is highly recommended to wrap the line around your hand once and lift. If your line broke I believe it is because of damaged line. https://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-videos/grabbing-line-land-fish.html
  14. I let the water, cover, structure and wind dictate what is the best presentation for the conditions @ that time .
  15. Leave the bottom drain plugged and circulate the water on a timer function if you have one, if not do it manually from time to time. low oxygen in water will result in dead fish so aerate often. Ammonia(pee) kills fish so circulate regularly. In hot weather this is even more important. Quick change in water temp will also kill fish I do not ever add ice, however I have heard of people doing so. https://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-videos/fish-care-in-the-livewell.html
  16. Black/Blue, Red/Black,Pumpkinseed.
  17. I automatically mute the TV when he catches a fish during a MLF event. However I agree he is a darn good angler.
  18. I need the weed guard, and ya have to have a larger hook throat vs the diameter of the bait. Thats why I use 2/0 and could even use 3/0 with a chubby stick bait.
  19. As it turns out I had a small sleeve inverted. For the life of me I cannot see why it made a difference but the reel works fine now. Thanks for the reply as it made me rethink it all.
  20. I own 7 of these reels and have had them for about 15 years maybe a little longer. They have been bullet proof and easy to work on if need be. However the other day I was practicing skipping a bait in my pool, so I put on all the brakes and finger tightened the spool tension knob. made several casts and all seemed fine until I backed off the brakes and tension knob for normal casting. I found that the spool still has a slight bit of tension on it and now casts with more difficulty and less distance. I have disassembled, cleaned, re-lubed and replaced two bearings and still no joy? any suggestions?
