Legacy

wondering how many of you guys are replacing your dull hooks or stock hooks with something alittle more to your liking. Im just looking for a couple of places online to buy bulk quanities (50+) of replacement treble and octopus hooks.

something about this post seems familiar...

When i had my bass boat "we" (me and some other crazy person) spent alot of time trolling the mouth of sandy creek and the oak orchard break wall early in the year (march-april) before the docks were in. we mostly ran 3 rods and used the church "walleye boards" to help with separation . Chinook gave you some good ideas on baits, the only thing id would add is we sometimes added splitshot to get our lines deeper, especially with spoons.

Sweet Boat!

pretty incredible (or scary) to see some of the figures on this stuff. 340 propossed projects at a cost of $22,093,054,016 for Puerto Rico? http://www.stimuluswatch.org/project/by_state/PR this has to be the best one i saw on the list. Makes everything else look like chump change. $17,500,000,000.00 for an energy project in the 51st state of puerto rico? http://www.stimuluswatch.org/project/view/3349

i have a stainless clamp on rod holder mounted to the rail on either side of the boat. http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/st ... sNum=12451 or another option... http://www.legendaryproduct.com/Net_Bracket_1.asp

nice video

pm Tom

tangledline, thanks for finding that. Floater, check out that post. It gives a pic of a way to rig the subtroll without using crimps and makes the subtroll removeable.

mdryer, On all of my flies i tie an overhand knot and attach them to the flasher swivel.

anyone have a good (cheap) website for these? thanks

Dave, Its a nice video and i assume everyone will complain about the download speed. Rick, I figured you wouldnt miss that.

SUBTROLL! sorry guys had to break the chain. personally i wouldnt mess with the fish hawk. i think your money could be better spent on a subtroll or depth raider. They are similar units and youll hear good reviews on both too. Try searching through some old posts because theres alot of topics on this subject.

lots of guys run flasher/flies on downriggers and somedays it might be your hottest setup. if it was me and i was limited to 4 rods... id run 2 dipsey rods with fasher/fly combos on each and run spoons w/ cheaters off the riggers. It may not be the hottest setup day in and day out but i think it would give you the chance to cover the most water w/ six lures in the water.

Happy B-day

Daiwa Heartland rods put up with the pounding quite well and theyre reasonably priced. They might be worth for you to check out.

you lost after the word "wow"

do i think it helps? i dont know. do i think it hurts? definitely not. A couple of years ago i ran a echip on the line of one of my downrigger rods for an entire season. Through observation i didnt feel that it was a huge producer over a non echip downrigger rod. I actually made up some tourny tied fly rigs for this season that are identical except 2 that have echips above the tandom hook and 2 that dont. I plan on doing some on the water side by side testing so well see what happens.
