  1. I was watching MLF Live and the commenters referred to a new Hook Removal Tool that Shaw Grigsby was using yesterday. They said it was really slick and had never seen one like it before, did not know the name. Does anyone know about it?
  2. I find applications where I wish I had a good quality 6 ft. pistol grip MH bait casting rod. Does anyone know of a reputable rod manufacturer who still makes them?
  3. Lefty Kreh knot is quick and easy, especially while on the water. Only negative I found is that it is a little more bulky than some of the more time consuming knots, thus giving a little "bump" when passing through the guides.
  4. Many of my rods are Duckett Micro Magic, 6'6" to 7'11"; I wish I could get the same rod in a 6' pistol grip.
  5. Vexus VX21 Ranger Z21 Triton21TRX
  6. I've been working hard on my pitching. How far, from the rod tip, is a good distance, while staying accurate? 3/8 sinker with a 4 inch senko, 20 # fluoro., 7'6" heavy rod, flip/pitch reel.
  7. Jigging blade baits and spoons in deep, clear water, getting hooks tangled in 12# fluoro.. What's a better line to avoid this?
  8. Casey's General Stores are almost everywhere.
  9. Does anyone know of a "slow" and detailed video showing how to install TH Marine's Two Way Boat Alarm System?
  10. My new boat is loaded, and sits in a marina about 2 miles from my house, on a lift. I'm having trouble sorting out different types of security systems. Any and all suggestions will be appreciated.
  11. Have a dozen Tatulas, purchased over the past 5 years. No problems, my favorite reels, plan to buy more.
  12. Clean those cork handles with Mr. Clean Magic Eraser Pads and a minimal amount of water, then wipe down with a damp cloth. Very quick, thorough, and easy.
  13. For dog hair, lint, grit, etc., which won't come off with vacuuming, use a plain old fashion lint roller.
  14. If the top level pros had a choice, would they choose a 20 ft. or 21 ft. to run with a 250 hp motor? What length would you choose for yourself?
  15. Is the significant cost difference between a 20 foot boat and a 21 foot boat worth it? What is the advantage? Reference a Triton, Bass Cat, Ranger, or Vexus.
  16. Shopping for a new 20 ft bass boat. I'm interested in opinions for a Hot Foot vs. hand throttle with a 250 Merc..
  17. I use the fly fisherman's go to......Orvis knot, with 3 passes through the loop instead of 2. Quick and easy, wastes less line, hasn't failed yet.
  18. I have a 9' ultralight available. Where are you located?
  19. I have 10 of them; cranking and casting, 6'6" to 7'11", medium to extra heavy. All are Micro Magic Pro, I love them, plan to get more.
  20. I'm not tech savy enough to forward the video to Lowrance's site; maybe some of the readers can do that. Bass Pro is hyping the Ghost, maybe send it to them as well.
  21. Anyone heard updates on the "noisy" ghost trolling motor? Has Lowrance responded to Glenn's comparisons?
  22. Mr Clean Magic Eraser Pads; even if the cork has 5 years of slime on it. Slick, quick, easy.
  23. Remove the prop and look for fishing line.
