Mold For This?
It would have to be a custom mold. Jigs with recessed line ties are what started me pouring my own silicone jig molds. Those can be done, if you are interested in me making you one, let me know. Here is a link to some of my molds http://s1057.photobucket.com/user/Paxamus/library/?page=1

Home Invasion
Still kind of hard for me to imagine sending hot stuff with my daughter down range. Got plenty firearms and VERY willing to use them if someone threatens our family. I sure hope that I am never put in the position where one of them would be in danger, but if so I hope it ends with them being safe.

What Do You Do When This Happens To Your Jig?
I fish it with one for a while I read a while back that smaller fish will attack a craw and tear an arm off first then eat it. Not sure if it is true, but I still will fish an amputated craw for a while

Any Thoughts On Shooter?
I was looking at the Metan as well and am glad to hear someone using it and having success. I hope others chime in as well. Thanks

Fluke Hooks
Parasite clips are fantastic for flukes. I use them on all fluke presentations as well as my T-rigs.

Any Thoughts On Shooter?
Hey guys, I have been using Sunline Sniper for trigs, jigs, and pitching beavers, but wanted some 25 lb, was thinking of trying Shooter in 25 for the beavers. Anyone had any personal experiences with it? Thanks Paxamus

Losing A Parent
Rockchalk06 My heart goes out to you man. I lost my dad when he was 63 and I always looked at him like he was Superman growing up. We fished our last tournament together one month before he died. That was almost 3 years ago. I cant tell you the sting will ever go away, it only slowly gets better with time. I actually wanted to stop fishing for a while because he was my fishing partner, but eventually got back to enjoying it. I still to this day pick up my phone to call him and still have his number in my phone. Good luck and just know that it will only take time to get better. The best advice I can give you or anyone who has lost someone close to them is, Live your life as they would want you to, enjoy everyday and make the most of it. Melanoma was the culprit in my dads case, so everyone PLEASE where your sunscreen this stuff is real! Paxamus

Chatterbaits! Hrmmmm
They quit using mustad hooks and now use some off brand horrible looking thing and want more money for them (I guess they need to pay all of their patent lawyers)- those to things made me stop using them and start using others

Your Thoughts On Fishing Scents? Effective Or Myth?
I always use scents. Anything to help, over the years I have tried all kinds, used to only use BANG, then went to powerbait stuff, tried JJs with good results but too messy for me. Plus almost got kicked out of my own house for using it in the basement. No I use Megastrike, smells good to me, fish seem to hold on longer as well

Discontinuing Revo Line?
X2 Start with a Revo S or an STX I have a TON of Revos, wont fish anything else!!
-
What's Everyone's Frog Setup?
Powell definitely. They have a lifetime warranty, if there is somewhere close that sells them, that means no shipping charges. 50lb is as light as I go, any lighter and it gets too thin. The Powell frog rod has handled 50 and 65 lb with no problem and I try to break stuff on the hookset

Best Worm Binder?
Traveler that is a GREAT idea!!!
-
Ardent Reels?
I had the F500 and it was a tank, but it weighed like one and sounded like one as well. I decided to stay with my Revos

What's Everyone's Frog Setup?
X2 on the Powell frog rod- love that thing paired with a Revo S and Sufix 50lb braid

Jig Fishing Question
Jig fishing takes time, check out the videos page and watch Glenn's vid on jig fishing, probably one of the best I have seen
-
Jigs Question
I figured it out once, when I was fairly bored, and came up with somewhere around 35-50 cents per jig. I have a range because I had some molds that had eyes and some that took expensive hooks. It is fun and you can pick up some used molds for fairly cheap.

My Hat's Off To Big-O
Well I am not a hype man- meaning I nearly refuse to use a lure everyone is excited about because everyone is throwing it. I fought trying them for a long time I'M VERY STUBBORN- but finally broke down and tried the Rage Craws in Blue craw on a jig I make- LIGHTS OUT- I love those Rage craws and only wish I would have tried them sooner. On a post frontal day on Guntersville where everyone stuggled I was able to land some chunks with that combo. THANKS Big O for a great product and always helping out with advice!!

Cavitron Buzz Bait
Quality product, rides low in the water, great squeak on the blade, planes quickly, can be retrieved SLOW and stay up - Stay away from the Megastrike stuff- it makes fish jump all in the boat!

Texas Rig?
