I've got 4 new light bites and what I am going to do is run them against my LJ DD's. Once I can get them to go consistenly then we'll see what my opinion of them is. It helps when you run 4 wires becasue switching one out wont hurt you too bad. You guys all know I will give some feedback once an opinion is formed so sit tight. The owner showed me how to rig it on wire, becasue i refuse to run mono or braid anymore.

Your gonna love it bro! So, you got a slip in Wilson for the derby?

Now it says there is a password required????????

:?: ....LOL....I dont know what he's talkin about.....LOL Im not jinx'n myself, so when its all said and done ill let ya'll know.

Anyone bored and wanna talk fisihng? There is a bunch of u on.

There is no set rule in fishing ever. You just have to play around. I interchange dodgers and flashers all the time. When u start to experiment with set-ups and find one that works stick with it. I have two favorite dodger set-ups. TC Green strip dodger with a glow green ATOMIK fly wonderbread dodger with a hammer fly

:?:

LOL....thanks bro. So should we call you captain yet?

Thanks..........i just e-mailed him.

They are sold! I will take them. Im in Boston for work until Sunday, but call me on Monday and we can work out a tome to meet.

Im picking up a special run color from John in a few weeks. I will see which vendors are carrying his gold nbk series.

Billy and I are running the 9'6" heartlands on our copper rods.

A guy who is really involved in this issue is a charter captain out of irodeqouit. His boat name is Rodmaster. I dont have his contact info, but give him a call and talk to him. He has all the info you will need about this issue.

I think they are great boats with very deep gunnel's. The only thing I would look over closely is the gel coat. I know they had trouble in the past with it. I'm sure Hank will chime in, becasue he asked the year of the boat. Good luck in your search! Dont forget about their 260 fisherman either. Its a bigger boat but still trailerable.

We were on the topics of squids on GLA when I pointed out another use for them. So, I might as well post it here for all of you guys to check out. I have run this with much success in the past. Instead of the hook harness on the j-plug run your squid through the plug. Sometimes the slightest little difference can make the day that much better.

I ALWAYS change the hole on the spin doctor to the opposite side. The standard setting is for the least amount of whip.

Not that i approve of what he did (its actually pretty disgusting), but all of us men have done it in one way or another......LOL! I mean we have to buy them dinner and hope to get lucky that night. The smart ones use the dollar menu though! We have to buy them a diamond when we ask to marry them and hope to get lucky that night. Again, do u really think they can tell the difference between a real diamond and a good fake one? AND YOU WONDER WHY I'M SINGLE!

Yeah, just read the previous post. The blacks release clips to the probe. Then there is a dropper cable about a foot long to the weight. Do we need a picture of that too ?

Personally I would rather see you save that money and donate it to the Pro-Am's this year for all of us to take!

Listen to these guys when they shout out the hot colors of ATOMIK flies. They truly are a great product. Last year was my first year running 4 wires, and by the end of the day every single one took a hit for the most part. Listening to the guys on the radio about how much wire is out when they are taking shots is important, but each set-up is different. For example wire line diameter varies. A lot of guys will run Malin or Mason wire. I run American fishing wire and it is a thinner diameter than the two I mentioned above. You also have to take into consideration the pound test of their wire. I would say the swing is generally between 20-40lb wire dependent upon the boat with 30lb being the most popular. There are MANY times when guys are taking shots up at 100-130' of wire and mine wont go till I pump them out more or reel some line in. It really is a touchy feely kind of thing. You need to find the depth that is working for your boat. Each boat glides through he water differently and affects the tracking of its gear in the water. You ask how? I don't know, but why is it when two boats are running an identical pattern one is cleaning house? I think it is all about how that boat is riding or cutting through the water. NEXT, leader lengths. I am one of the guys who likes them to be long enough where it makes it difficult to net fish . Seriously, I usually use a 10' leader behind the dipsey and I don't run a snubber AT ALL when I'm running wires. Dispsey color seems to matter too. The basics would be black and clear. But you will rarely ever see my boat with less than 2 purple metallic dipseys in the water. No matter if I am on the east or west end of the lake. I rarely run the dipsey on a 3 when I'm fishing over 50' of water. Usually its a 1 or 2 setting.

That blacks clips to the probe then there is a dropper from the probe to the weight.

Nope! If it comes down to it Ill put it on the new ride! wink wink

LOL......hes fine.

Bo, call Vinny from Thrillseeker. I know he fish's it every year.
