    No I don’t. I can’t remember the last time I did. I don’t even find what I want at Bass Pro. I spent 20 worthless minutes looking for a specific item that they were supposed to have. I find it so much more convenient and easier to get what I want on line.
  2. If you want a stronger battery and have room move to a series 29 or 31 battery.
  3. Suck it up butter cup. I’m older than you are and just got back from a 6 hour trip to Table Rock. Fishing was slow but we managed 21 bass and 2 walleye with 4 nice keepers. I’m heading back Thursday.
  4. In boxes similar to Ajay.
  5. Good for you. The older IMX rods are my favorite. I have had some GLX and IMX PRO rods. I didn’t like them so they are in new homes. I use my IMX rods every time out.
  6. My main concern is finding a qualified mechanic in this area.
  7. I don’t build them myself. I have them built. I want a full cork grip then cover it with shrink tubing that I get from Mud Hole.

    My wife has it. It is up and down. Three in her family have it. Thankfully none in mine. I was told by a surgeon that it can be reversed if one eats a 10% fat diet and gets plenty of exercise.
  9. Colorado copper with a black and red skirt.
  10. I know where you are. My wife and I went on a vacation to Colorado and caught it 2 weeks ago. We took Paxlovid and quarantined for 10 days. We are over the symptoms but have very little energy.
  11. If you are fishing highland reservoirs 15 is my minimum recommendation. Good luck.

    That is a pretty small number of acres for more than 1 or 2 hunters.

  14. Heavy cover and sharp boulders is the nature of TABLE ROCK LAKE. 15# was a step for me as I generally use 30-50# but was wanting more distance with those small Keitech fat impact swimbaits. 10 is a bait losing waste of time where I fish. This is a typical bank.
  15. I use the 12# for swim baits from 2.8 to 4# on heads 1/8 to 3/8 oz. We catch lmb, smb, spots, stripers and walleye on them so I want strength in the braid and leaders. For me 10# braid is crappie line.
  16. Well my Chiefs pulled off a butt ugly victory over the Jets. They looked good about 25% of the game. The rest of the game was just plain awful.
  17. I went through the same thinking a while back. I settled on 15# braid. I use it with 8, 10, and 12# fluorocarbon leaders. I have it on a variety of rods with 1000, 2000, and 2500 sized reels. It has worked flawlessly for a year.
  18. Thanks for the info.
  19. Thanks but I’m interested in heated vest info only.
  20. Cold weather is just around the corner. One of my fishing buddies likes to go any time it is above 32°. I am on a couple of blood thinners and have trouble staying warm. I have been researching heated vests and am overwhelmed with too much info. I was in a Sheels in CO last week and was looking at them but they only had women’s sizes. Do any of you guys have experience with heated vests?
  21. For me the Arig has not been a great fall bait, however, the spinner bait has. I don’t throw them until mid winter.
  22. I hear you. I never considered any kind of covering. My arms and legs look like old saddle leather. I have purchased long sleeved fishing shirts and pants. I wear them no matter how hot it gets. I hope I have done it in time.
