This is the one I have been using for a couple years and I just leave it in the boat glove box for storage. Allen

Jigs have only work in 35 to 85 degree water for me so they have their limitations. Allen

I agree with all the points here and besides BassTracker look into Xpress. Allen

This is what I found out as well after experimenting with them for about 2 months. No difference in catch rate and the red coating would flake off after a few fish. The other thing I found was that the red hooks were weaker and broke more often than BLN ones. Allen

They are trying to compete against other anglers and promote their sponsors is why you don't hear about senkos. Watch what they are using and not what they say they are using to get the truth. Kevin Short did this in one tournament where he said his bait was a Berkley Power Hawg but was clearly using a Zoom Brush Hog. Allen

Before you or anyone else asks do not try and use a microwave oven. Allen

Lee Pots are cheap enough to not mess will poisoning your family by using something you cook on. Allen

Looks like the business to be in. Allen

If you want a job dealing with fishing lures go to work for BPS in the fishing department. I am going to echo a lot of what has already been said concerning making money in fishing lures. One of my graduate school projects I had to do a business plan for a fishing tackle company. When you run the numbers the only two ways I found to make money was volume which means outsourcing or find a niche. Niche is how 6th Sense started as he was repainting baits and selling on ebay ahead of everyone else. Now everyone and their brother is painting KO 1.5 crankbaits to sell on Facebook or ebay. The same goes for soft plastics as everyone has the same molds so they sell the same baits leading to market saturation. Unique custom designs are what will set you apart but custom molds cost money. Allen

They are using the Mustad Steelhead hook which is way too thick for me. Allen

I remember having some worms in the late 80's in the color you described. The color was firecracker and there was only about 1/3 of the flake as in those Culprit Fire and Ice worms that were posted. Allen

If you are fishing Trap Pond I highly suggest a Manns Baby 1- in Firetiger and Bone. Allen

Try something else besides a senko if the water is muddy would be my recommendation. Allen

KVD Strike King baits in Gizzard Shad and Chart. Black back would be a good start. Allen

Here is the hard baits I had in my boat last spring minus the topwater box that didn't make it in the picture. Yes I carry too much tackle but I am paranoid about being on the water and needing something that I have at home. Allen

Check JannsNetcraft, Barlows Tackle, and Lurepartsonline as well for pre-made skirts. They all sell skirts from the same manufacturer but they all carry different colors. Allen

Back in January I had over 300 packs I was trying to sell. I need to get rid of some stuff just so I am not tripping over it in my basement. Allen

Could be a meanmouth? I have caught two in my life and both of them were in MO. Never caught a SM in it but the Meramac is full of spotted bass (and flatheads). Allen

Are you asking about the multi-colored tails? Those are done by dipping a rod in one color then dipping it in another. Allen

473219 TUBE-TX I have the Tapered Tube -TX mold and use the Mustad 32729 BLN hooks in size 1/0 to 3/0 with it. Actually every 60 degree hook I have tried with this mold has worked. Allen

Since I throw Megabass and LC baits into brush piles this thing paid for itself in about two hours. Allen

About 30 years give or take? Allen

Folding lawn chair that I thought was the new state record bass. Rods, stringers, shoes, bike, shopping cart, volleyball net, deer leg, orange cone. Allen

I use the Bill Dance one and it works well. This one has a reel attachment instead of just the string like my one that kept getting tangled up. It should work on single hook baits but I just break off baits like that. Allen

They make an injection mold or you can go with the dipping method. Allen
