please send the youtube link when it's up as I have better things to do right now like have a beer and a smoke. I can watch it from my cell at lunch if you do if the host is that bad...

No wonder everyone jumped on you right away, you work in litigation at a law firm... sorry, ex-Bay St. guy I just had to...

I never got what he said but even fish out smart me all the time... I know people that swear by light gear and others not so much. Me, I want to LAND IT and C.P.R. and be on my way to the next one. each person legally fishing can decide how they want to fish but it's up to that person to protect the fishery too.

I too am interested now the Nav. has a blackberry app. I can easly d/l it to my tablet but don't want to take it in the boat all day as the kids would turn the Nav. app off and play angry birds all day...

mechanix glove These "mechanix gloves" and others like it work very well. I didn't need to cut the thumb off the 'impact glove'

NICE! :thumbsup_anim:

It was the damn filters at work is why I couldn't see the video as I can see it now.

but the key with a baitcaster is your thumb. I too have the fold back mit's/gloves and never use them when using a baitcaster. not enough feel in the thumb with them. any other type of reel, for sure they are good.

auto mechanic gloves work and some come with an exposed finger(s) and thumb. if the thumb isn't open, cut the tip off the one you need to thumb the line with if you don't feel it like you want to. I keep 2 sets of them with me fall fishing incase I need to change a wet glove.

no prob and good luck on the re-build.

I hate to admit, but you DO know your stuff!

I can't see the youtube video I posted for you.

that things got a HUGE head! nice going. Oh and this might help you bring that Abu back. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_zz40QUkvw

the pic's are so small I say manbearpig!

you, oh you.... rubins'! you know it's a banner day when he's been here almost 3 years and that's his 1st post... Will, you should be HONORED!

Not a problem and good call NOT to call. Nice report and pic's Will.

my fenwick and phluger (SP?) was found? good on ya for offering to give it back to the owner.

I never rinse or pat dry the fish after being in the brine. I put it on moist and let it smoke.

I would put them in the brine to thaw for 12 to 24 hours. then use black cherry & apple wood and you are good to go!

I think he's done his homework and will see you in 11 months now Wayne. the OP should JUMP on this offer!!! I know I regrett missing out on an offer from Wayne this year...

after looking at those Mepps Spinflex in the OP I think I need to find me some for testing...

Gagnon's cause it's not too far for me.

If you like the idea of those then check out the Aaron’s Rollin’ Runner by Road Runner for walley and bass too.

Shh and I know, hence my offer for the 'combo' I happened to be using. the second you had seen my fish you went all giddy like a school girl...

So what kid of walleye was that I got with you last time when you tossed your big bass back like it was a baby rocky? and if I recall, it was on the combo I mentioned a few post's up...
