just a wackky worm kinda day!
went out this morning with my dad. we had a goooood morning! much better than the previous months fishin. all these bass except for one were caught on wacky rigged yum dingers. my dad caught this 15"er on his FIRST CAST he put it right next to that pine tree there and caught this one: then we moved over to an island thats in this lake and my dad caught this unexpected fish on a wacky worm! ive never heard of perch being caught on wacky worms thats why it is cool. 12" perch: then it got reall slow for a while, so we moved across the lake into a cove and i caught this tiny guy: couple minutes later my dad caught this one (he was being retarded! lol. love that face tho!!! ;D): then the fishing got VERY slow!!! nothing would bite, probably 30-45 minutes went by with out a bite. so we moved over to a bed of lily pads by the shore and i caught this nice 17"er. theres a story to it too lol. my dad casted right after me and his worm fell off. i was looking in the bottom of the boat to see if it was down there. then i felt my rod move to the right so i looked and my line is speeding to the right! so i set the hook fast, fearing a gut hook. well i did get a gut hook. but i managed to get it out and the fish swam away fast. i couldnt get in the pic cuz the entire other side of the fish was solid red with blood, and it was dripping everywhere, so i had to hold it overboard. if you look hard enough, you can see a drop falling in mid air lol 8-) anyway, here it is: on the NEXT CAST i caught this 15"er: then we moved up along the shore some and i caught this litte guy. he shook my worm off...i was upset >: my dad caught this one on a floating rapala along the edge of the lilies: we moved across to the other side by some other lilies and i caught this last one. it also shook my worm off....i hate it when they do that! so all in all a good morning!!!

In-Line Spinners W/ Fly Fishing Flys I Modified
the trebel doesnt even have to be long shank to tie a trailer! do you mean to dress it like on a x-rap or do you mean actually tie the fly right on the trebel?

one man watercraft
BHEC-I: The baby in the family of Bass Hunter boats. Lightweight and economical, with the same strong construction as our larger boats. A perfect choice for the single fisherman. Features include internal foam floatation, 2 H.P. motor rating, 325 lbs. maximum load, weight of 60 lbs. with seats, dimensions of 78" length and 40" width, olive green color and a one (1) year limited warranty that ones a little too small! 6'6" thats like fishing in a bath tub! half my rods wouldnt fit in that thing!!! lol. if i were to get a bass hunter i think i'd get something like the ultamate bass hunter or the ex or the stalker. is a 10' aluminum jon boat really that easy to handle by yourself?

insanely leaky old jon boat
yea today my friend looked at my boat and said "thats a hell of a lot of welding to do. it'd be cheaper to buy a new boat than to weld that thing!" then he reccomended i go out and buy a can of herculiner for 30 bucks and paint that on there nice n' thick. its indestructible and will seal it. so i think thats what i'll do. anyone know if i should sand blast the hull before i paint that on?

Whacked this one on the Wacky Worm
haha thanks my camera has a "anti red eye" flash thingy...maybe i should try that next time. it flashes like two times, then another two, then once more then takes the pic. i guess all the flahses are to get your eyes accustomed to it. i wonder if it works...

insanely leaky old jon boat
yeah i'll probably have to take it somewhere. how much do you think that would cost? maybe i could get some amish ppl to do it. off topic: just curious, do you all know what amish people are? im asking cuz they are all over the place here, but i havent heard of them anywhere else, so im wondering if its just a local thing.

Daiwa Megaforce?? Anyone know much about it?
exactly what i thought. sure the twitchin bar is cool, but on a $60 the twichin bar probably aint the same as on teh viento, and the rest of the reel probably sucks too!

one man watercraft
hey all, when i get a job and some money and when i can drive and will be fishing on my own, im gonna need a one man "watercraft". my jon boat is too big and heavy for one person to handle. what are some inexpensive options? what about like one of those inflatable rafts? are those any good? or what about those pontoons like this: http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10151&catalogId=10001&langId=-1&partNumber=84331&hvarTarget=search&cmCat=SearchResults would those do? can i mount a motor to one of those? anyway, any suggestions on a light, small, managable, inexpensive one man watercraft?

insanely leaky old jon boat
ok i have an insanely leaky old 12ft riveted v-hull jon boat. it leaks thru the middle seam thing and the rivets around it. what should i do? ive tried jb weld and since the boat flexes, the jb weld just pops off....kida actualy made it worse. what should i do? should i sand blast it to prepare the surface and have someone weld all ther rivets/seams? is there any kind of bottom paint that will seal the hull? pweeze help

Good pair of waders?
ive got these in the insulated lug sole http://cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/pod/horizontal-pod.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/pod-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat350005_TGP-cat350005&rid=&indexId=cat350005&navAction=push&masterpathid=&navCount=1&parentType=index&parentId=cat350005&id=0000596 and they are good for teh money. they dont breath at all tho...i sweat like a pig in them, but hey, they keep me dry (except for my sweat!!!) theyre plenty durable cuz they have that "hard shell" dont only use them in rivers either! i use mine at ponds where there are vast shallow flats along the shore line that are unfishable cuz theyre like 5" deep. so i just walk on out there to the edge of the drop off and fish.

the bite light lure
david that worm doesnt move on its own. the way it was molded was in a coil and when you get them you have to cut all the little pieces that hold in in the coil. then when its in the water you pull it and the resistance straightens but then it curls back up. so its not really moving on its own, you have to work it.
