im sure cox was made aware buy BASS that if he fished the event he could /would be disqualified im sure he wasnt shocked. even though its his responsability to read and know the rules.

Should BASS disqualify John Cox ?
yeah i like the guy but thats the rule. i say he should not be able to fish. when you start bending the rules and making exceptions it always leads to a bigger mess later.

jerkbait in summer
no reason it wont work in the right depth and cover situatution. its a dying or wounded bait fish. bass are opportunistic no reason they wont eat it. when i fish one in warmer conditions i usually dont pause it as frequently or as long as in cold water.

Braid on Bait caster
i do the same . fill most of the spool with cheap mono then top off with 75-100 yards of fluoro. when my spool gets down that far im refilling anyway. why have 150 yards of expensive line you arent gonna use.

Used Boat Values
yeah its coming as people start working more, doing other things, kids sports activities etc. only the people who really love it will hang on. the johnny come lately will sell when he realizes hes not using it and has to do all the maintenance etc. thats when we should be able to get some good deals on trucks and boats.

Need Help....St Croix Victory vs G.Loomis E6X
no doubt the zodias is made in china. i own 8 st.croix legend tournament rods. but for $100 less made in china or not the zodias is lighter and just as sensitive in my hands. wouldnt keep me from buying another st.croix just saying its a real nice rod in the $200 range.

Need Help....St Croix Victory vs G.Loomis E6X

Neko rig has dominated my early summer
grande bass air tail wiggler is a great neko and shakey head worm, rattlesnake is a really good worm too. dont overlook the big trd or the zinker z on a neko .they float up of course and last several fish,

What's your favorite tube and weight
river rock are awesome tubes. very soft great colors.

Senko durability
idk how your rigging them but here my only advice. if your texas rigging use a hook with a screw lock keeper. i use the with senkos and flukes and they will help get a few extra fish. if your wacky rigging use an o ring. senkos tear easy because they are soft and have a ton of salt. just the way it is. as far as expense you can use bass pro stick os, or yum dingers . im sure there are others. the sink rates are different because they dont have as much salt but you can play with lightly weighted heads to get the rate you want.
