South FLA

I let my gun pick my bullets, but generally Hornady makes some mighty fine rounds, their superperformance ammo is loved by my .308!

Kill fish eat fish then buy a NRX rod mounted with a Daiwa Steez loaded with Samurai braid and use about 3-4ft of floro leader and watch the sensitivity go way UP. Shhh...don't tell SouthFLA that I am using his account. Signed, BAITMONKEY

That catfish looks like a muddy , those brown bass sure look nice

That's a big ole pig for sure, nice NATIVE FLORIDA BASS in FLORIDA!

Just goes to show you beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I think the Aston looks a bit too hefty and buck toothed with the grill.

warm it up and the surface where you are applying it to with a hair dryer.

For the Big O the bigger the better as long as it drafts shallow. Big "O" custom boats makes a perfect Lake Okeechobee boat.

Its a Pugass!

If you would have done that at some of the golf courses around my house, you would have been asked to leave or been arrested for trespassing. The higher end the golf course and surrounding homes, the closer you would come to being arrested. Ballen Isles is notorious for not allowing fishing at all, not even for its own residents.

Nothing like a 100+ day, especially with topwater in the mix! WTG!

I see a Pond Boss Magazine subscription in your future.

They are great eating too, just got back from having cobia at my favorite Thai place, nice catch Kevin!

Backing up the trailer and forgetting that I chained the tire over the fiberglass fender. Forgetting to put the power pole down a bit while backing into the garage, ouch. After unhitching trailer, forgetting to remove safety break away brake line, hooking trailer back up on next trip and wonder while it smells like BRAKES about 3 miles down the road. Forgetting to pull straps off when launching boat and wondering why water is halfway up the back deck. Letting son play in boat and not realizing that JJs Magic is in his tackle bag as he throws it up in the AIR. Non skid deck, white...JJs Magic was Chart. Forgetting to trim motor all the way up while pulling out of shallow boat ramp, it least it wasn't my boat. Shutting rod locker on my FINGERS! Taking off with trolling motor down in 2 feet of water and coming off plane in 1, not my boat at least. Unbreakable shaft my a...!

Now if you could only figure out a way of packing the pounds of fat you lost onto those bucket mouths you keep catching..., NICE CATCH!

Thought Champion went belly up? Stratos Elite I heard is the new Champion.

The 734 is going to be my spinner bait rod, was debating a 733, but I have a custom IMX in that power and love it. Also the Vendetta I sold is close to the same action as the 734, the 735 will be pulling frog duty.

Vanish=Vanishing Lures

Winner, winner, chicken dinner! LOL on the NRX Tale, I thought it would have somehow picked up the dime and put it back in the guys pocket!

I have two already so these would be replacing the other rods, I rank Dobyns up there in feel and balance with my GLX and Custom Rods! Love them, maybe should make the entire rod selection Dobyns....

EXACTLY, if you are looking for funding I can help

I like searchtempest it combines different craigslist locations and eBay on one site, good luck in your search!

The other day the bait monkey and I had a conversation that went something like this Monkey "You should sell some of that old stuff you have laying around and get some newer stuff" Me "I could Monkey, but the old stuff performs just fine and I kind of like my US Made All Star rods, and the buttery smooth round reels" Monkey "Hmm, haven't you been killing it lately in the market, with some of the longer positions?" Me "Yes, but don't know how much the ol'bull has left" Monkey "Don't be greedy then, realize some profits, sell some of the older stuff and get some newer stuff that you like, plus they will match other competitors sales and ship faster" Guess he convinced me cause I have a two day air package coming in from Tackle Warehouse, so out with the Vendetta and Big Boy All Star and in with a Dobyns Champion 735C w/full handle and a 734C w/full handle as well as load of terminal tackle and lures. Now the Monkey is off my back, its YOUR turn!

Nice one, keep them coming!

The pigs are biting!

Be very careful even while running on plane in the flats, I know Capt. Shane had some issues and his boat floats in spit. Try putting in on the far North ramp, by the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office shooting range(Twenty-Mile Bend Ramp) or maybe Boyton so you can run the canals. Again, be very careful of bottoming out the boat, cause the Federal guys won't come marching with smiles on their faces to your rescue. Water is dropping as we speak!
