  1. Ever heard of kharma? I know where your boat is Rob and I will be next to yours, Jerry!
  2. When the bridge is closed the ONLY people it effects are the homeowners on that stretch between bay rd. and the outlet. If your coming from east of bay rd you still have to travel south and then west just like if you were going over the outlet. People just like to **** because they can't take their little $2,000 dog for a walk to get ice cream at bill gray's. They should be greatfull the bridge is there for 5 months. Sorry about the rant but I saw an editorial in the paper from an anti boater (pro bridge) lady and it burned my ass! Yes, the bridge will be open april 1st
  3. Good going on your trip. How would I go about getting a pass for the launch? I'm in Webster.
  4. I've sold one and Still one left for sale. $80.00
  5. We have a 1990 24'ht. It's a heavy boat that does great it rough water. It gets out of the hole good w/ atop end in the low to mid 30's. We usually cruise at about 24-27 area. Youl get 1 hour per gallon trolling and 1-1.5 miles per gallon running. It is deep. Once you get used to rigging you'll be flying around without thinking twice about it. No stringer or gel coat problems yet that I know of. If it has a sink I would yank it and put your cooler in it's place. It will then seat 5 people comforatably. Maybe if Rob (legacy) can chime in on his view of it also. He's fished w/ us a bunch of times. If I remember anything else Ill report back.
  6. Yankee is right. No snubber and as long a lead you can handle. The longer the lead the wider the spinny will turn. Experiment w/ the back holes. When I find a s.d./fly set up that has been hot I will use a marker and write (v.g.) on the spinny meaning "very good" and that set up will NEVER be separated.
  7. Red line doesn't disappear after 15' underwater. It probobly turns black but won't disappear. That's one of the biggest hoax's out there. I won a bulk spool of 14# cajun in the pro-am and used it as cheater line and 4 rigger rods. Didn't have a problem w/ the rigger rods but I had 2 cheaters break. Who knows.
  8. I'll make a couple calls to try to get rid of your riggers.
  9. Try this guy. I've had very good work done by him. He will get very busy shortly. http://www.stevescustomcanvas.com/index.shtml
  10. Maybe the flies weren't darting a lot because the leader length could have been long. I would like to know how long it was? Rob, can you find out for us?
  11. I use a rubberband when connecting the leadcore to the in-line board. Also I've only broke 1 core in 4 years running it at any color off the back of the boat. I'm either lucky or because I don't pinch the core on any release, I have no pre-existing bad spots to wear down.
  12. The next time I set and drift will be setting at the test table and then drifting far away from it!
  13. That's great Joe. Brand freaking new! Them trophy's are sure getting popular. Good luck
  14. c.c., They are talking about the l.o.c. derby.
  15. What kind of boat did you get Joe? You must be a happy camper.
  16. (2) Penn330gti reels fully loaded w/ 10 colors of lead, backing and leader. They are ready to be put on poles and fish. The reels are about 3-4 years old and are $100 a piece brand new. They include a parts list and proof of "new" purchase price. The only reason for getting rid of them is I'm switching to the Diawa57lc. $80.00 each or $150.00 for both.
  17. I think it makes me more NUTS than you cheap.
  18. Or you can buy a spin doctor for every fly. Wind the fly around the spinny and then put them in the spin doctor storage containers. :shock: Does this sound like someone you know Rob?
  19. Hey gator, If you want info on the perch tourny april 12th, pm me. Paul and I donate every year to that. We'll fish 1 or 2 weekends before the tourny also.
  20. thanx seasquirrel. Run the plastics about 1-2" of the mainline. 2 of them. It sounds like I know something but I still stink too much on that lake. I need more time on it.
  21. Legacy was one of the 2 freinds I mentioned. Rob, I was replyony the same time as you. I also see we BOTH are off work today. Was gonna fish tomorrow but have to work now.
  22. On the other end of the spectrum I've heard very good things about f.f. line and I spooled 5 reels up already for the summer. 2 freinds told me that what negative's you heard about the line were not true and they liked it. But then their's billyv's story. I guess I hope I made the right move. I was sick of putting diff. line on come July. I'll still have 6 rods w/ 14# till then. Yankee troller really like his 25# mean green year round and I guess he doesn't have much of a flea problem at all.
