Hmm... If you can't find it on their website, call them on the phone at the headquarters in Springfield, MO. 1.800.227.7776 or 417-887-7334 Mystery solved.

Geez...It's tough living in New York.

The cold version of Hell!

Wow! 90% dry sucks 100% when it's cold.

Well a lot of guys are "collectors" and we appreciate gorgeous lures! The Megabass line of lures are very effective, but I own more than I will ever fish. I just love the detail and on some, their angry eyes.

Whatever you fish spinnerbaits with will be just fine.

Highly recommended oil: http://www.tsi301.com/tsi321main.htm Mike at DVT did some work on a couple of my reels. The Boca ABEC5 Ceramic Hybrid Bearings were annoying to me running dry. I can't really tell what I have given up by adding a drop of oil, but I like them better.

It's the "Cool Factor". I like eyes, the kind that are glued on not just painted. On the other hand, fish don't care.

It's like Big Game, if Big Game had zero memory. WOW! Thanks.

This is the second time today Defier Armilo has come up. Tell me a little bit about the line, please. I guess I missed this one, I have never heard the name.

CONGRATULATIONS! http://espn.go.com/college-football/bowls14/story/_/id/12159720/urban-meyer-latest-national-championship-elevates-one-college-football-greatest-coaches

Here is some good reading for you: http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_articles.html

By Bluebasser86 Spinnerbaits for me are a more clear water or faster retrieve bait or when fish are feeding on smaller baitfish. I fish my bladed jigs extremely slowly, just fast enough to keep the blade vibrating, even bumping the bottom if possible. In lakes that see lots a spinnerbaits, a bladed jig is a good replacement. They also shine in stained or dirty water or around vegetation because the strong vibration helps the fish hone in on the bait. There are times I will fish them faster (over vegetation for example), but 9 out of 10 larger bass I catch on them will be during a very slow retrieve. I've had good success with them using a stroking or pumping retrieve, letting them settle to the bottom then lifting the rod quickly before letting it settle again. I think 2 of the biggest mistakes I see guys make with bladed jigs are, 1. fishing them too fast and 2. not recognizing a bite. Like I said, I like to fish them slowly. The issue then becomes that a big bass can lazily swim up to the bait, inhale it while maintaining a similar pace, then spit the bait out without it ever feeling much different. I can't count the number of big fish I've caught on them where it felt just slightly different. Sometimes it feels like the blade has quite working, other times like I've caught a leaf or piece of weeds. I think the common notion is that since it's a moving bait the strikes will be vicious, which they certainly are at times, but more often than not they're much more subtle than I think most fishermen expect. I first realized this by fishing clear water and actually seeing bass strike my bait and noticing that I felt very little despite the bait being almost completely inhaled on a couple occasions. I thought back and realized I'd felt similar strikes lots of times before but never realized they were strikes. Once I started setting the hook on those little bumps and when the blade just wasn't vibrating as hard, I was amazed how many fish I was catching that I didn't even know were there before. Lastly, it's always possible that they just aren't a good tool in the areas you're fishing them. If you fish anywhere with stained water and vegetation though, I'm 100% certain there is a time when they will shine for you.

Yes, but they come on sale all the time. Bibs and parka are currently on sale for $150 each or the whole package for around $300. I think there may be another 15% discount if you are a card holder. Then maybe no tax depending on where you live and free shipping. http://www.cabelas.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=1547978&type=product&MDK=dynbanP_SL&MDC=cat104329080&WTz_l=SBC%3BMMcat104793480%3Bcat104329080 http://www.cabelas.com/product/Cabelas-GORE-TEX174-Guidewearreg-Xtreme-Bibs-150-Regular/1547979.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fproduct.jsp%3FproductId%3D1547978&categoryIds=104797080%7C104746680%7C104329080%7C104170680&WTz_l=RI%3BIK-984740

I have a friend who was a FLW divisional Angler Of The Year that guides out of Florence. Send me a PM with your cell number and I will ask him to give you a call. As OO mod noted, the Tennessee River changes from day to day this time of year. You need to pick a few days and be flexible. My guy will not take you out if he isn't confident that you guys will have a chance to catch some bruisers.
