  1. Looking around for material all I could find was floral wire. Since I don’t know how you use it I did a hook anyway.
  2. I experimented a little. I only have 2 types of hooks that aren’t jig or worm. I tried some coated 45# surflon. It was way too stiff to wrap around the hook shank. I doubled some 17# fluorocarbon and snelled it. That may be an answer for you depending on how strong your line needs to be.
  3. I looked at some videos. None had the big loop like the Gammy. Do you need that big loop? How do you attach it?
  4. I don’t know the cause but open the lid and heat it for a bit in the microwave will make it liquid again.
  5. It’s that time alright. I haven’t cut my asparagus yet. When I do I’ll need my trailer to haul it off and it is loaded down with firewood.
  6. I’ve never even seen anything like that. What does one do with them?
  7. I think Japan has passed them and has taken the number one spot.
  8. Nice ones. I’m jealous. I had to go to Stone County today so I swung by Cape Fair. Roads for the most part were clear until the Corps line. From there on it was a solid sheet of ice. Since I am not mad at my truck I turned around.
  9. If I didn’t know better I’d think you were my son-in-law.
  10. I have one but it is not for sale. However, since you haven’t done that kind of thing, you are welcome to come to my place and pour some to see if you really want to take the plunge. I will warn you in advance there is no end once you begin. The molds along the top are what I have left after I cleaned house a few years ago.
  11. They waited until it cleared land and shot it down over water.
  12. If anyone is interested, I was at BPS catalog outlet yesterday. They have 100 mph gortex jackets regularly $140 on sale for like $75 then take another $25 % off at the register. They are out of bibs.
  13. Our driveway has melted a lot. It probably won’t be clear until tomorrow sometime. The warm gale winds should finish it off Saturday. I have to go to the farm Saturday so I’ll probably drive on over to Cape and see if it is clear because I want to go on Sunday if possible.
  14. I have a few extra gallons of Calhoun’s medium plastisol that I will part with.
  15. I’ve been there. It was ok if you like wine.
  16. We’ve had snow, freezing rain and sleet. More than once in the last few days. The last round was freezing rain, then sleet, then snow. That has made it less slick today but not good enough to be out. Come on warm temps. I want to go fishing.
  17. Don’t open. Write RETURN TO SENDER and put it back in the mailbox.
  18. I like it!
  19. You might have a look at Frogg Toggs for warm weather.
  20. I have BPS 100 mph gortex. It is the only rain wear that I have ever owned that keeps me dry. Before I bought it I drove to the Cabelas in K C and tried on the guide wear. It wasn’t comfortable so I didn’t buy it. Because of the price I bought the 100 mph jacket one month and the bibs the next.
  21. When I saw the post I expected that jerk bait would be mentioned. I wanted to go but I was running out of wood and had to go the farm for a load. Congrats on some good fish.
  22. Maybe it is your part of the state. In northern Stone County there has been an explosion in the last few years. Before we sold the big farm we had over 200 on it. On the one we have left it is common to see over 40 feeding in the hayfield and bull lot.
  23. Maybe that is why they have over 100,000 members.
  24. So did you take your brain out and put it in ice?
  25. They look similar to what Jeff has on some of his setups.
