OMG! Great to hear from you. Catchin' any fish?

Well, the TN license is the most economical, but AL is much broader.

Yep, looks to be a great option for swimming jigs.

WOW!

Great story, great pics!

I had the opportunity to fish the prototype a few months ago. I fished it weightless and lightly weighted so that all the action was generated by the tail on top of the water. The rigging was with a 3/0 Gamakatsu Offset Worm Hook, tail positioned horizontal. The presentation is similar to a small buzzbait or Rage Shad. I didn't catch any monsters, but the numbers were awesome! Today I fished a 1/4 oz weighted Moaner Stroker Hook with the Menace tail vertical. The presentation is a minnow. I prefer baitcasting gear for fast retrieve lures, so I spooled my Curado 50E with Yo-Zuri Hybrid #6 matched to a BCR893. I wanted to test the rig today in anticipation of using this next month on the river. I think the Menace is going to be killer for smallmouth! http://www.ragetail.com/news/most-recent-news/ http://www.moanerhooks.com/the-stroker-hook/

This one's over... Good luck!

Well, probably not the right pricing point for you, but as a general response for those that are interested: Spinning tackle: St. Croix LES70MF/ Stella 2500 FE/ Yo-Zuri Hybrid #6 Baitcasting: BCR893/ Curado 50E/ Hybrid #12

You are such a girl....

I like the Keitech Swing Impact Fat, Shadalicious and Hollow Belly. Here is some prop for the Hollow Belly: http://www.bassmaster.com/news/hite-hits-new-high-eighth-win "Every fish he weighed in was on a 5-inch Berkley Hollow Belly"

Sworming Hornet Cast the lure out and let it fall on slack line. When the lure reaches the bottom, reel up QUICKLY, then let it fall again. Repeat until you feel you are "out of the zone". DO NOT move the lure by lifting the rod, that simply moves it forward. Reeling quickly causes the lure to rise due to the action of the spinner.

Well, Mr. Brady has won a few rings for you. Although I am one of his biggest fans, I still MUCH prefer looking at his wife!

You don't have to wait until next year! The Expendables 2 http://www.bing.com/movies/search/overview?q=The+Expendables+2&id=46120039-a9f4-467a-85bf-76c1aa9310b1&where=&latlon=0%7e0&FORM=DTPSHA

I was always a big fan of the X Calibur XR2 (Chrome & Blue). After fishing the Red Eyed Shad, it's the only lipless crankbait I fish anymore.

Topwater: Rage Shad, Menace and Toad Shallow: Keitech Swing Impact Fat, GYCB Kreature, NorthStar Swim Jig/ Rage Eeliminator or Single Tail Grub and Zoom Fluke or Slug-Go Bottom: Moving: Space Monkey and Smokin' Rooster, Sworming Hornet/ LFT Live Magic Shad Subtle: Senko, Fat Ika, Thumper, Anaconda, Baby Craw & Lobster

Gizzard Shad. My buddy has been wearing them out, but we could not find them last Saturday. We sure didn't find the right spots on that day.

The Chronarch comes in a left-hand version: http://fish.shimano.com/publish/content/global_fish/en/us/index/articles/shimano_takes_chronarch.html

Thank you!

I would try to fish Stick Marsh/ Farm 13 with George Welcome if you have time.

8,000 yards for $24.99 http://www.thelongfi...1-lb-spool.html 600 yards for $12.95 http://www.fish307.com/yo-zurihybridultrasoftline600yardspools.aspx

It's a small striper. We have been catching a lot of 20's and a number of 30's. I was in Spring Creek last weekend and zeroed.
