I have been soaking up all the threads in this forum for the past 7 weeks. I want to thank all who are so willing to share their ideas, creativity and expertise so freely. I don't want to mention names but I have been blown away by some of the work in these pages. My experience is mainly in soft plastics and jigs ( carp and catfish not bass) but I will try my hand at cranks and swimbaits in the new year. May each of you enjoy a blessed Christmas and a new fishing year exceeding your expectations. Chris

That is one of my favorite parts of this forum, nobody on here seems to be trying to hide information or keep a secret to themselves and they are always willing to help. I know I've picked a couple of the jig makers brains and the improvements on last years baits to this years are incredible.
