  1. Well, you can Google a technical definition, but as it applies to fishing line, co-polymer is a blend of different formulated strings. Most co-polymers combine two or more nylons. Yo- Zuri Hybrid is a bonded fluorocarbon/ nylon combination. Generally, co-polymers are stronger for a given diameter of line. They tend to be highly abrasion resistant and have high tensile strength. Visibilty varies, but it is comparable to monofilament or less. Popular brands include P-Line CXX, Gamma and Yo-Zuri Hybrid, but there are many others. 8-)

  3. Hmm... How 'bout using spinning gear?

  5. Thank you! Very well done.
  6. And the best new is... You can still ride with The Posse and be a Flooger Mook at the same time! 8-)
  7. Here are the websites of a couple of our members: http://www.***/main.html I can't find J Francho's website right now, but you could send him a PM: http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?action=viewprofile;username=3D31253639343F38570
  8. Geez... How 'bout looking around a little... A few lines down on THIS page: http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1234808496
  9. I wish I could recall his name, but one of the pros interviewed during the Classic made a comment along these lines: "To have any chance of being #1 you must be willing to gamble. That means the possibility of going from #2 to #11 or even worse."
  10. The Banjo Minnow will produce bites when almost anything else would be a better choice. A well known alternative is the Slug-Go (flukes). 8-)
  11. WOW! This is something I had never considered. Excellent explanation. 8-)
  12. I bought the first run directly from Ray Scott, along with his custom rod. It sucked, big time! The spool had rough spots that were noticeable on retrieve; the weight of the reel was heavy and disproportional; and the spool held WAY too much light line. At the time they were "Made In The USA", St. Louis as I recall. Maybe the machining has been improved since manufacturing was moved off-shore, but I won't be buying another any time soon. >
  13. It's both profile and action. Fished on the bottom, dragged or hopped, it imitates a crawdad. Fished with an inserted weight or jig head, the tube represents a dying baitfish as it twirls on the fall. The original Gitzit was actually designed as a "do nothing" bait, laying motionless on the bottom or fished while drifting with the wind. My theory is, the boys from Arkansas created another excuse to drink beer! 8-)
  14. If no one responds directly, don't sweat it, boaters always have an extra jacket or two. 8-)
  15. Nice, really nice! 8-)
  16. Nice of George to recommend some closer, but if you have the time, this is my "Dream Trip": http://www.imaginationbassin.com/ 8-)

  19. I'm interested, too! I saw the advertisement on the back of In-Fisherman, but haven't actually seen the lure or a report on performance. p.s. I picked up a few River2Sea lipless cranks at a boat & fishing expo this wekend. Any know anything about them? 8-)
