  1. Well, the Alabama Rig is banned at the professional level, but EVERYONE else should have one tied on in the spring.
  2. Gonna need a bigger boat.
  3. For most medium weight lures with treble hooks: G.Loomis GLX PR844C/ Core 50Mg/ Sunline Defier Armilo #11 For heavy lures and deep divers: Lamiglas SR705R/ Conquest 100/ #30 Smackdown, #15 Tatsu leader
  4. State Park is basically at the dam. There are two coves and rip rap to fish on the safe side of the dam. A few years ago Big O and two American Army Iraqi Veteran Heroes caught 128 smallmouth RIGHT THERE! The gates and spillway is well beyond these points. But beyond the logistics, why would anyone sail into danger without a properly functioning motor? You just can't be that stupid and survive. I am so sorry for the boys and their families, but the story is simply ridiculous.
  5. George Welcome I love bass fishing! Members 24 1,811 posts Location Sebastian, Florida My PB: Please Choose Favorite Bass:Largemouth Posted August 22, 2007 Let's get technical, as there are in fact reasons, not just some lame holdover from days past that put the handles where they are. What will move the fish during retrieval is placed to the strong hand! A baitcast is designed to be used as a winch, so it is the reel that retrieves the fish. Hence if you are right handed the handle is in your right hand. A spinning reel is designed to pick up unloaded or loose line, not retrieve the fish. Hence it is the rod that does the retrieval, so it is the rod that is in your strong hand. If you are right handed then the pole goes to the right hand. George Welcome Sebastian Florida

  10. Well, the fishing is actually better below Wilson Dam.
  11. Yep! Below the dam which is technically Kentucky Lake, but commonly known as "the river".
  12. There are unlimited options available on Pickwick that are almost "no risk" even when all flood gates are open. People sometimes make poor choices.
  13. I fished ToHo last month with ghoti. We wacked 'em on shiners.
  14. That's a beauty!
  15. Fish the ramps, there are lots of BIG fish close!
  16. Hmm... I am retired now and don't need an excuse, but when I was shoveling coal, I still had vacation days. I see NO EXCUSE for faking a day when most people have weeks of vacation.
  17. BPS Tender Tube, #71. Owner Phantom Tube Weight, rigged weedless.
  18. Never heard of this deal, but I have the insurance, will look into it and report back.
