  2. I need your guys advice on what size trolling motor for a aluminum 14ft semi v jon boat with a 9.9 mercury on it nothing else.Also which brand do you guys reccomend?Thanks!!!
  3. I feel for ya!I've been dipping Copenhagen for 26 years and I have tried a few times and its all I thought about, I had a short temper,ate everything I saw, it only lasted a few days and went back to dipping I was afraid I was gonna hurt someone and Iam like one of the nicest guys you can meet,that stuff is like heroin or crack,I quit drinking alchol and partying with no problem.My best advice is go to a Dr and see if he can prescribe something for you!Best of luck!

  4. Looks awesome!Got this off there site:boat launching area (freshwater fishing lake, non-motorized)
  5. Like trading in a Chevy Cavalier and buying a Ferrari Enzo. I have the BPS Bionic combo, which I do like, but the rod pales in comparison to the G.Loomis IMX (especially if you use it for feel baits). I use my BPS combo for spinnerbaits, which I think it is perfect for, but I use the G.Loomis IMX for soft plastics, which it is outstanding for. WOW!!!!Thats exactly what I was planning on doing using the Shimano/Loomis as my worm rod and BPS combo for my spinnerbait.

  7. You might be a fisherman if... 1) You have a power worm dangling from your rear view mirror because you think it makes a good air freshener. 2) Your wedding party had to tie tin cans to the back of your bass boat. 3) You call your boat "sweetheart" and your wife "skeeter". 4) Your local tackle shop has your credit card number on file. 5) You keep a flippin stick by your favorite chair to change the TV channels with. 6) You name your black lab "Mercury" and your cat "Evinrude". 7) Bass Pro Shop has a private line just for you. 8) You have your name painted on a parking space at the launch ramp. 9) You have a photo of your 10 lb. bass on your desk at work instead of your family. 10) You consider viennies and crackers a complete meal. 11) You think MEGABYTES means a great day fishing. 12) You send your kid off to the first day of school with his shoes tied in a palomar knot. 13) You think there are four seasons--Pre-spawn, Spawn, Post Spawn and Hunting. 14) Your $30,000 bass boat's trailer needs new tires so you just "borrow" the ones off your house. 15) You trade your wife's van for a smaller vehicle so your bass boat will fit in the garage. 16) Your kids know it's Saturday---Because the boats gone,
  8. Lemme ask a dumb question if I buy that Shimano Chronarch and Gloomis rod what will the noticeable difference be from my Bass Pro Shop Bionic Plus Baitcast Reel and Bionic Blade combo?
  9. Like this one?http://www.basspro.com/servlet/catalog.TextId?hvarTextId=21129&hvarTarget=search&cmCat=WISHLIST&hvarAID=wishlist
  10. I know there are a variety of companys that make BPS gear I was just wondering if anyone knew which company made there Bionic Plus Baitcast Reel??Thanks!
  11. I hear ya I had some very expensive guitars and I was soooo parnaoid to play them cause I was afraid something was gonna happen to them also I was afraid someone was gonna steal them so I had to keep them under lock and key and a close eye on them!!!
  12. Just realized at the rate Iam fishing Iam gonna probaly have to upgrade to a shimano and GLoomis........
  13. Its awesome setup!Day 2 landed 3 more 1-about a pound the other 2 were 2 1/2-3lbs!!! Man I missed this!Gonna rent a boat this weekend at Sawgrass recreation in broward county Florida with a buddy gonna be nice to sit down and fish instead of standing all the time on canal bank...LOL!!!

    Thanks!I use to use them all the time!I thought the wire neck made it look like something was chasing it opposed to the reg ones but I have been using strike king w/tandem and having good results,btw all of the catches were on the tandem part!!!!
  19. Lures were designed to catch fisherman thats why there are soooooooo many colors and styles Fisherman catch fish.I had an old friend that was very poor growing up in florida used use old pieces of tires and cut them in strips to look like a warm and he caught plenty of fish.I believe its more of a motion thing fish pickup with there lateral lines than a visual thing.....
  20. Thanks it seems to be a quality combo.

    I've been out of the loop for a while what happened to Limberneck spinnerbaits?
  22. I just bought a Bass Pro Shop Bionic Plus Baitcast Reel and Bionic Blade combo and Iam real impressed with its perfoirmance for such a inexpensive combo $119.Does anyone ele own one and if so how has it held up?Thanks!!!
  23. \I agree with Rob G!Lighting rods are fine rods.I use to use them back in the 80's caught a ton of fish with them.Fish doesnt care what you are using as long as you present your bait to him/her properly. Just about everything thats out now a days is good!I just bought a BPS combo for $119 blew me away of the quality firsty hr of owning it caught a 4lb mudfish and a 5lb bass handle both of them with no issues. Unless you are a professional fisherman fishing 300 days a year you can get get away the lower end equip.Dont worry about what gear you got focus on finding fish..Happy hunting!!!
  24. I got lucky!LOL!Actually it seemed like a terriotal strike.
  25. This is my first time awesome place!
