I'm even in Western Md so it's colder up this way. Buddies went ice fishing last Sunday. It measured 5" thick.

What setup did you end up going with?

Nice, yea Im lucky enough to get a okuma guide select SB rod from a nice guy here (buzzed bait!! thanks again) Nice rod but Its rating is a lil low as the BBZ1 is its limit but it works great for the Hudds 68's and savage line thrus. Running the same reel you got but with big game 20#, although Im looking into other lines with a lil less stretch. Good luck to ya come thaw out.

Sales start tomorrow morning @ 9am pacific time. Very limited number available. Retailers won't get them until later in the summer. I want one but not getting up @ 6am to order one.

It will be noon on the east coast at 9 am pacific time. I assume you are east coast since you favor the Potomac river. It is easy to get that backwards sometimes.

Whoops. Looks like someone already caught it. Sorry.

Wow. I'm setting an alarm.

Read the other posts. EST will be noon. I will be in study hall at noon   . Last time it was hardgills that went up for sale when I was in there.

Flippers are going to have a hay day. Love the idea of a weedless bluegill.

Well I will be on the side of a mountain laying in a frozen hole and welding broken pipeline with a snowcat, excavator, generator, compressor and who knows what other machines running. It is easy to not notice what time it is when you're working like that and directing a crew, hence the alarm

I WISH I was still going to be asleep haha

Haha yeah when I get up this morning I was like "ohhh wait a second".. and went to log on to post that it is at Noon, but luckily you guys beat me to it.

 

The thought of a new Huddleston got our brains caught in a mosh.

LOL, good luck.

 

I can tell you from experience, prepare for a server crash. The first time he released 68s all hell broke loose. I can see it happening with this as well. I think I'm going to sit this one out. My days of bait chasing and F5ing went out the door with the 316 craze.

I wish they weren't all weedless.

Website is overloaded

LOL, good luck.

What are you guys talking about. Smooth as silk.

Been looking for a weedless version of the softgill with the ability to cruise slow.

if it cruises like the 68 does.. this looks to be the ticket
