Most likely/ best answer.

Wow! I guess it's winter...Maybe just pick the one YOU like.

Yes. I will be keeping the boat in Sheffield. Should be easy for us to get together. I will let you know when the boat is ready to go and I hope you will be ready, too!! -Kent

Don't wait, you will REALLY like the Smackdown. There is a notable difference.

Man, if you had been selling that lot for $85 I would have been first in line!

I was introduced to the Baby Craw by Big O when it first debuted. We were on a BassResource Roadtrip at Pickwick. Most of us arrived Saturday afternoon for the Welcome Party, anxious to get on the lake Sunday morning. I was awakened a little before 4:00 AM to horrendous lightening and thunder. Turned on the tube to find we were under a TORNADO WARNING, not a watch. No place to hide so I decided to leave the guys alone. Our cabin was the gathering center so as people rose, the crowd grew. The storm was hurricane force, eventually dumping 18" of rain throughout the region raising the lake by 9'. It wasn't just the rain, lightening was strong and constant throughout the day, tornado watches were in effect all day. By 6:00 most of the guys were up when two of our soldiers showed up. These guys were just back from their third tour in Iraq. They asked me what we were going to do. I replied "We're going to drink coffee and smoke cigarettes until 10:00, then it's time for beer." Well, that's when Big O showed up. This was my cabin and I was "kinda" in charge, but no one is in charge of Big O. First thing he says is "Who's going fishing?" If I was really in charge, the answer would have been "Nobody". It was dangerous just standing on the patio. Well, the soldiers had not come around the world to be stuck in a cabin. They were ready and they were the only guys that left. The three of them were putting in around 7:00, but the storm had strengthened and a tornado was literally bearing down on us. The tornado took a turn, but the hard rain continued. So, we'll fast forward to 5:00 PM. Everyone is worried about our boys and then the three drowned rats showed up...with smiles from ear to ear. The United States Army had two Personal Bests and 144 smallmouth! That's when the rest of us discovered the Rage Tail Baby Craw.

I am planning a trip with him in January.

Geez...Just what I need is another line of crankbaits...

Most of the guys aren't from Tennessee. You can't expect them to catch a DD every week.

I only add leader if I am spooling braided mainline.

https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/catpage-OKUMARLS.html?from=basres This was my first impression six years ago: https://www.bassresource.com/fishing_lures/tournament-rod-reel-okuma.html

Just put them on a stringer while you are fishing. "bonk 'em" before dressing the trout. Be sure to remove the blood line.

Someone on another thread said they "would get tired of catching 10lb bass". What say you?
