I Feel your pain Man. :(

Now theres some food for thought. Thanx for the insite. Let us know what Doug says.

I have a Back-Pac tackle bag that my wife bought for me after I saw it at a sports show a couple years ago. I shore fish alot so it comes in handy so I can walk and cast and not leave my tackle bag laying around. It even has a place to hold an extra rod. Here is some of my stuff though;

Hawgin hit it rite on the head. Ike is a Class Act. He even made it a point to interact more with the younger anglers there. You could see them get excided when he would ask them a question.

Went to the Chicago outdoors show today. Ike was one of the guest speakers. He talked about finess fishing. Shakey head,Tubes, and Sinking minnows (Senko Type). He also gave a great tip on how to spool up spinning reels so they don't get that anoying line twist that turns into a birds nest. He gave a great seminar and spent time before and after to sign autographs and take pics all with a smile and a thanks. Heres the tip; To help keep your spinning reel from getting line twist Ike said you shoul load it like this; Take the spool and hold it so the line comes off counter clockwise take a soft towel and spray it with reel magic or any line conditioner or silicon spray and run the line through it. This takes the powder off the line from the manufacturing process and relaxes the line (Great for florocarbon). This works so well because the reel will put the line on clockwise and eliminate line twist. Also make sure after you cast that you close the bail by hand and make sure the line is in the roller. Oh and he also said to use a reel one size bigger than the rod manufacturer recommends. Like if it calls for a 2000 size use a 2500. Hope this helps.

I am a member. Thats mostly because my favorite fisherman fish BASS. Also Im not really sure FLW is in it for anything but the money. Not much on the conservation front from them.
