Thanks Kemper!

That reel should be nicknamed "The Harlequin" Just like the car VW put out in 1996

Nice fish Jack!! Glad you got out, I am sure you were getting a case of cabin fever. I hope we have a few days of nice temps, if we do I'll take you up on your offer.

I'm lazy, I just buy the Riverwoods Any of you guys have the resources to make some custom wood handles for my Ang Spec? I'd like to get rid of the plastic!

Nice boat man!!! Does that thing have a IPhone plug in? :) I am sure you'll have an awesome time in it.

Forrest, you need to give it up man. You've ruined every single thread about this fish. Dale, awesome fish and welcome to OFC!

Unless every boat has a certified weigh scale, how exactly would that work? I think there should be a live release category so he could get some recognition for that brute.

Man, that thing is FAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would like to add that you can contact me with regards to my home and other rental properties. I only accept payment via Western Union, as I live in South Africa. http://Roatan1.5.com http://Roatan1.6.com http://Roatan1.7.com (Sorry guys I couldn't resist)

Right now shipping and exchange get rid of any savings you get on the retail price. Now, if you had a place in the US that you visited frequently and shipping/duty weren't and issue, then it might work out for you.

HAHAHA!!!! Congrats Pete!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Although I was expecting pink hats )

It's official. Mike has cabin fever.

How is a hookset with a snell knot, any different then say an improved clinch or Trilene?

Is yours diluted? I've had a bottle out in the garage for a few weeks, it hasn't frozen yet.

I use the palomar knot when dropshotting also. I don't think I've ever used a snell for anything.

Well seeing that 90% of your windshield washer fluid ends up on your roof anyhow, I am sure the paint would be fine lol Anything that doesn't freeze will work really, you could spray Windex on it if you wanted. Chapstick also works good!!!

Nice reel Kemper! I think I am going to de-virginize my Ang Spec this weekend. I can't take it anymore.

I think for overall coverage in Ontario, The Navionics Gold+ map can't be beat. We picked that up for our Eagle Intellimap 500C Chartplotter and it's been awesome... (I dunno if it's helped catch anymore fish, but it's fun to look at!! lol) I might add, that it's extremely accurate. I know some people have had issue with the HotMap chips being off quite a bit.

Medium action spinning rod, spinning reel and 8lb FireLine should work fine. Get some jigs, use half a shrimp and you should have no problems catching fish (if they are there) This is the setup my oldman and I use when we shore fish in Florida. Haven't been snapped off yet. Might also want to use a Flouro leader.

Aren't alot of the baits impregnated with salt, not just covered? I would think the fish would hold on a bit more if it bit into something with some taste

I usually drive faster then the flow of traffic when the conditions are bad. But I'm not weaving in and out of traffic being a dumbass. I drive a good 50K a year, perhaps I am a little more comfortable in this kind of stuff then some people, who knows.. Nothing beats a good set of snows and the knowledge of what your vehicle does in what weather...

Wow, exactly what my HTC Touch can do without a overpriced dedicated data plan. Add Garmin Mobile XT to my list though...

I am definitely going to get my plastics into hard containers this years. Bags are such a pain in the ass. Which plastics *shouldn't* go into containers?

All people need is the email account associated with your Paypal account.
