Knowing Bass: The Scientific Approach to Catching More Fish ~ Keith A. Jones (Author) That book has made me look a little differently at how important scent really is. Being said,I use it to cover up any odor and it more of a confidence booster.

From my understanding,there's almost no way to stop them right now.They have more firepower than most federal authorities have. Like redlinerobert said,it is not safe to go to Mexico right now...it won't be till the zeta cartel is wiped out completely.Severe action needs to be taken and unfortunately it's going to mean many,many more deaths.It's gonna take years to dismantle this cartel. :-/

I think my main problem is the size of some of those rage tail baits.They are quite large and beefy compared to some of the other baits i fish.From judging the quality of the fish caught with it in some of the pictures on here it's definitely seems like a big fish bait.I have enough problems trying to locate anything over 3# right now.

Nothing sort of fishing it is the only way to tell if anything is in it.I have an small pond at work and it's loaded with some of the biggest Bluegills I have seen in my life. I've caught 2 bass in it so far as well. Kalin 3" grubs,Inline spinners and stickbaits/senkos has been the ticket in finding out what's all in there.

;D I want one now....

If my wife haven't broke the camera i would be able to take a picture and show you guys. I was looking at it today again and it's pretty banged up. Considering i only made about 20 casts with it before changing up something different.It kinda surprised me a little. Those blades are definitely thin though. never really had problems with blades bending on any spinnerbaits before.

Is it me or are these things very bendable? They seemed very,very thin. I bent both blades(willows) this weekend bumping it against some boat docks. After my 3rd cast i noticed it. :-?

1/2 oz Brown weedless skirted jig with a brown chunk. Plain and simple. Some of my best smallmouth and PB largemouth bass were caught with this jig combo.

You gotta be trying to stir the pot, kid. Either that or he got his nose broken and can't smell anymore. I got yelled at by the wife for opening one in the house.It was that bad....

Best answer yet....I don't have much luck on my rage tail baits either. So far it's mostly bluegills ripping off the legs and tails on these baits. ;D

X2! I also use inside tube jigs for the tube baits.You can skip those suckers really easy and a long ways.

I love my 7.0 reels....

Been looking for a similar lure to the Vixen since they aren't being made anymore. Thanks!

Since we are under this topic...does anybody know anything about the Paycheck Baits Repo Man bait?

It happens. If you can take it home then take it home. If you are under a law like J Francho and Me, let it go and let the other critters and wildlife eat it.It's not the end of the world when it happens. I HATE keeping Smallmouth Bass,but once a year i always deep hook one that just Impossible to remove without killing it.I take it home or give it to somebody who is fishing for food next to me. Just think,how many fish we C & R that don't make it and we didn't even know it dies later on. This can make you think sometimes.If it does bother you,I'd suggest stop fishing as well... ;D

You'll love those Powell rods...

14# or 17#.

Put me down for that same answer.

Dave,Looks good! I catch a few that have that exact same blue lines on it's face. I KNOW the bass around here would eat that thing. Matter of fact i was fishing a pond yesterday and i pulled one of those out.Looked exactly like that lure.

$400...No thanks. I see a price decrease within the next year or two....That's priced too high.

Not silly at all...I see Carp fishermen doing it all the time with their braid.They say it helps keep it from slipping as it puts a small knot on the end of it.

I'm doing some experiment on this bait with a scrouger head. Now i need a day off from work in order to find out how well this thing works together.

Same for me....felt real uncomfortable for me as well.

Season 2 probably won't be coming out till next year according to the source on facebook. This show is definitely hardcore. I'm going to have to re-order starz again next year when our Cable prescription ends.
