  1. I prefer to have one. I'm not a brand loyalist in this type product.
  2. If I have to throw a DD22 to catch them, I'll do without. It's more work winding the bait back in than it is to fight a fish in if and when you get a bite. Eff that noise.
  3. Sell them. Sell them all. It's silly money that guys are throwing away for these baits.
  4. Seems like they might be in the wrong line of work. Did they move down from Chicago or something ?
  5. <4 foot I'm throwing a square bill 4-6 WW >6 or when I want to catch a fish Rock Crawler im not a Wart guy. Get some greens and browns Rock Crawler : Spring Craw, Phantom Green, Phantom Brown, Green Craw, Molting Craw
  6. Lunker City had the Pudgie but it seems to be dced
  7. I'm sure Barlows has a mold
  8. Lure parts online has brand name
  9. I bet they still are. I know I have some somewhere in storage AND Bass Pro has Offshore Angler Stinger Tail Grubs. Same thing.
  10. Take a look at the maps that Phil has provided.
  11. Yep, 1/32 oz is not uncommon for me to fish
  12. I want the smallest diameter I feel comfortable with. I want the line to affect the bait less. I want max casting distance. I want the current not to grab the line anymore than I can help You could have gone up to 12 lb to get more diameter, but you've found an option you are happy with.
  13. I've fished three events (2 BASS and one FLW) as a co-angler. I've fished with one guy that I wouldn't want to fish with again. I get that they have a lot more skin in the game and that their focus is for them to catch fish. They are by in large not focused on me catching fish. They sure as heck focused on whatever advantage they can gain by me catching fish though. If I find a better option to catch one, they will have that bait tied on before you can get your keeper in the live well. I caught fish behind every Pro I have fished with. None did anything to prevent me from catching fish, but none of them specifically set me up to catch a fish either.

    Who knew?

    When they looked into it and both were legal to purchase a handgun, they should have backed off. Believe me, if they had ever asked me to leave their store, I would NEVER ever be back for any reason at all.
  15. Poor Vernon. PTSD from split rings and treble hook replacement.
  16. It's good stuff. It might be that they are bailing on that glowe blue stuff. I've got bulk spools of 4,6,8,10, and 12. But it doesn't last forever. I have 300 yard spools for leader material. I recently got 300 yards of the glow worm yellow in 8 lb for jig pole fishing. Tackle Warehouse usually has a big sale on it in the Fall. That is when I usually buy my bulk spools.
  17. The weather was absolutely beautiful this morning, but I knew what was coming. kinda a metaphor for life in a way. the severe weather is sliding down our way. I wish it would spend itself before it gets here, but that's unlikely. Brutal cold following severe weather as well. That's just insult on top of injury. I prefer the stable weather of Fall to the unstable weather of Spring
  18. It's a copolymer
  19. P Line CX Premium is some of the thinnest line available on a lb test basis. That's gonna bum me out if it disappears from the market place

    Geez Whiz Charlie, I was trying to leave square bill talk alone.

    The RK is. A better bait in 6-10 foot of water. The Wart is better in < 6 foot of water.

    EBAY

    Completely unnecessary as well. Wal Mart works well enough shallow and RK's are great for the deeper stuff.
  23. Props to the dedicated knucklehead that did the research buttttttttttttt I would like him to have used 12 lb line instead of 8 lb and I would like to have measured stretch under various weights. im not sure of the mechanics of it, but fluorocarbon is more sensitive than mono. I thought it might be that fluorocarbon stretches less under light loads like a lure weight and that the angle to the lure is more direct than than the angle when using mono.
  24. I think the CX Premium is still widely available.
  25. Lol, and I thought I hopped around more than necessary. If you ran all the way to music, your friend was sore from having to run rolling troughs on the big turns. I stayed above Pontiac all day.
