  1. Get some cheap 10lb mono because you will have to cut out a couple birdsnests. Another recommendation is to only fill the spool between 1/2 and 3/4th full. This will cut down on your casting distance but it will definately cut down on the number of backlashes! Like Burley I learned to fish a baitcaster when I was 12 but like everyone else I still get backlashes. Allen
  2. Where do you fish on the UP? Allen
  3. I think that it imitates the common color of a crayfish when they are molting? When they molt they are easier to catch and their body is softer so the bass prefer them? ( This is what I saw on a In-Fishermen show) Allen
  4. I think the idea came from the tornado spinnerbait that BPS use to sell (they may still have them). It was the worst spinnerbait I ever used hands down! That bait took two pairs of channel lock pliers to tune because the wire was so thick and half the time the blade would not turn. Allen
  5. SK for just about everything they make? and Frenzy baits. Allen
  6. 1.6/0 Treble hook dipped in chartreuse dye to snag them with. 2. 5' casting net 3. Spear gun 4. Bow $ arrow 5. In a pinch I just try to hit them with one of the props at full speed Has anyone guessed my opinion on bed fishing yet? Allen
  7. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_7816_100010005_100000000_100010000_100-10-5 Use these on your baits, the only time I would use a swivel like that would be an inline spinner. Allen

    3-D stick on eyes from Barlow's (all the tackle places sell these including BPS) with epoxy over them so they never come off. Allen

  10. Insert small finishing nails into them. Allen

    Yes, I won a bet on this that is how I know. The ones I used had a very fast sink rate and no wiggle. Allen

    Seneca tournament is moved until April but I plan on fishing it the lake weekend this month. I do really well with a spinnerbait but most of the fish I catch on one are only on 2 or 3 colors. Allen
  13. Crayfish, shad, and firetiger are all you should need. Allen
  14. Pointer 78sp for the spring Slender pointer 97mr for the fall Allen
  15. Baby brush hogs are my #1 producer but I use the Yamamoto Kreature for large SM. Allen

    Both of these baits are hidden weight 1/2oz. This is my first buzzbait and the other has a transparent clear red plastic blade. What does everyone think? Allen

  23. I had one that was constantly on for no reason and after a clip of the LED wire no more light to worry about. Allen
  24. Munkin replied to lmb7's topic in Fishing Tackle
    When in doubt use green pumkin or solid black. Allen
  25. 1. I hate rattle traps because they catch fish for everyone but me and I have never made more than 12 casts without losing it! 2. Depends but something more natural like a smoke colored senko? 3. Main thing about fishing clear water is long casts! If you can see them they saw you 10 minutes earlier and are now spookish. Allen
