  1. One of mt brothers had it done a while back. It seemed to be a routine procedure. Best of luck bud.
  2. I like War Eagle skirts but Pradco discontinued the bleeding shad so I bought dalmation skirts from fishing skirts. Mine is the one with the bigger head.
  3. Yes it does in my book.
  4. What skirt colors are best up your way? Bleeding shad has been my top with gold and silver willows.
  5. Not the same kind of broken lines that hybrids have.
  6. I buy Pline for my ultra lites in 3000 yd spools. It lasts for years.
  7. IB Sunday we drove 42 8’ pipes 43” into the ground to support corners and gates. This week we have been cutting trees away from the fence area and welding braces where needed. Next week the wire will be strung. Then I will get back to fishing.
  8. Sorry but I am probably way older than any of you. Yesterday is gone and forgotten. I just got in from the lake and am planning my next trip. I don’t have time to reminisce.
  9. Sure looks like one to me.
  10. X2 Wire
  11. Run a Qtip over it. If anything is wrong you will know.
  12. Definitely the Strike King Zero has been my best fished on my stand up leggy jig.
  13. I use acetone to clean bearings. I soak them in it. Dry them thoroughly. Then I put a drop of oil on them and reinstall them. I use reel kleen on the outside of the reels and on the rods.
  14. You can use powder paint by tapping with a brush. Heat the spoon and dip the brush in the powder. Hold it over the spoon and tap the brush with your finger. You can do multiple colors and accents with this method.
  15. Have you considered hiring a walleye guide?
  16. Looks like you did good work there ib. My honey do stuff is in progress at the farm. It includes 2 miles of barbed wire fence and hanging 6 new gates.
  17. I use fluorocarbon mostly; 6# for Ned, 10# for cranks, 12# for jigs, and 15# for spinnerbaits.
  18. 1/16 and 3/32 are the weights that I use the most no matter the depth. I use the Midwest Finesse head that I pour.
  19. It looks like out of balance issue to me.
  20. Yep. It has been my best producer for the last month. I’m pretty sure I have at least 3 tied on right now.
  21. Both buy and make
  22. I only like to eat quail so fishing for me because it is nearly impossible to do catch and release when hunting.
  23. Yep. That is the way I launch. I unhook in the parking lot back down, float the boat, go park. Same loading, load the boat, go to the parking lot and hook everything up. Maybe 30 seconds to launch and maybe 45 to load. I have been doing this for at least 15 years. When my wife is along, she drives the boat launching and loading. When she loads, I drive to the nearest restroom and hook things up while she uses the facility.
