Quality time with the family and good solid fish to boot. Can't beat it!! Give Teria a pat on the back for that new PB. Congrats on the fish and the tourney.

That is because you are located in OHIO and not CALIFORNIA. Look buddy, I'm not going to get Fourbizz's thread closed over some hater. Just look back through some old threads at the fish he catches over the course of the year and then make a public apology on this forum when you're finished. Sorry for the hijack Bizz, it's just that some people really get on my nerves with the same old crap.

Just thought I'd post a few decent ones from the weekend since I haven't posted any fishing pics for a while. We been stuck on this 4 lb. kick for a while and can't seem to get anything over the 4 lb. mark. Completely swallowed the Kopper's BR member AJ Fernatt

Good going there fellow Mountie. Hopefully we can put you on a few nice fives and sixes this year.

Beautiful fish Matt, awesome colors on her. That's a toad for sure in my book. Congrats on the new PB man!!

My thoughts on the matter. 99.9% of the time, a bass during a fight that lasted this long would have probably broken the water at least a half dozen times and you would have gotten a good look at it. I'm saying a large cat, they fight like you described.

I was just getting ready to shoot you a PM and ask if y'all was getting this crazy weather. I was out all day on the lake yesterday fighting that wind. It brought back memories of Guntersville, but the waves were only two footers. ;D

TW will make it right man, they always do. If you had to pay shipping back to them, they will probably give you store credit for later on.

Reliable sellers always tell if it's refurbished or used. Look at their feedback. I always buy reels through Ebay.

Jay, you're an animal! Crazy day on the water dude. To think I was pretty happy with a 17 lb. sack today. :-[

I agree 100%, besides I can only imagine fishing these things in some of the brush at my local lake. It would be hang up after hang up. Not for me.

Both are sweet but I like the cedar and poplar better because of the spiral design. Very nice indeed!

Well I guess I will go ahead and post a lure since I'm sure it's a River2Sea Gold N' Crank. Back to the land of the rising sun for this one. You Japanese lure fanatics will surely jump right on this.

That fish is crazy fat. Thanks for the pic Daniel.

How about River2Sea Gold N' Crank, the Lucky Craft wanna-be?

Lucky Craft Virtual Baits Kingyo, Nishuki color maybe?

Great interview Glenn. I thought Jeff answered all the questions pretty thoroughly. Add him to the list of pro anglers I would like to spend a day with. Good guy.

another site is where I found mine. BTW, the hooks are Daiichi. No wonder they felt so sharp.

Good suggestion, I will have to keep that in mind.

I have fished this bait a few times now and feel a small review is in order. The setup I have been using is a Daiwa Pixzilla (modded Pixy) spooled with Yozuri Hybrid Ultrasoft 6 lb. and a 7' med action Kistler Helium LTA. The color I have been testing is the natural matte. The diving depth is 3-5 ft. I will say for starters, this bait ran as true as any Lucky Craft right out of the box. The bait also casts like a bullet and will not roll out on a high speed return. I have caught several bass on this crank the past few outings I have been on, including a 4.1 pounder. The hooks come sticky sharp to the touch, they look like VMC's but I'm not sure. I guess if there was one thing to complain on it would be the finish, although tough, some of the matte has worn off due to teeth marks from the fish. The actual color remains underneath the matte finish, it is just a little shiny now in spots. I would also liked to have seen an oval split ring from the factory for a $12.00 crank. Kind of picky, but I prefer oval split rings. I will probably be ordering a few more soon, I want to try the deep diver and maybe a few more colors in the medium diver. The natural matte color is going to be hard to beat IMO. Good crank and highly recommended. Two thumbs up!! Edited to add link: http://www.koppersfishing.com/CrawFishSpecs.aspx

Very nice rod. Get you a Daiwa Tierra and put on that thing.

Glenn, did you get the CD I sent? It was sent out last week 2 Day Priority. Just making sure it wasn't lost.

Freaking sweet!! I don't know which one I like better. They all look awesome man, great job. 8-)

Very nice fish and man what a good looking lake. I would love to visit that body of water. Stickups and brush everywhere. I would be right at home.

I feel for ya man. That does suck. :'(
