HB2

And thats your opinion . A lot of data and facts saying the other . What's the death toll by itself with no other contributing factor such as obesity etc? It's pretty low . Maybe we should be more diligent about banning fast food and Twinkies . If you stuff you face with this garbage , and wash it down with a 6 pack and smoke a cigarette and are unhealthy , it puts you at huge risk if you contract it . That's on you . I hear that there is a Bill in congress to slash all public employees pensions and health care workers pay and benefits by half to fund the extra unemployment that is needed . I'm sure they will be all for it to pitch in to share the burden . I'll take my chances , there are no guarantees in life .

There are a lot of people going broke and will take a decade or more to financially recover from this.look at all the business going under . What gets me most is there are people who are working and getting paid telling people they can't work . If these same people were faced with losing everything and bankruptcy, they might feel differently . So IMO , it time to open stuff up and go for it . If you are young and in reasonably good health , you don't have much to worry about . And yes some people will die. And anyone who doesn't see this is a political football is blind , respectfully .

There soon will be a cure . It's called the election .

All fuel now unless specified at the pump has 10 % ethanol in it . The ethanol attracts water . Worse than that it's caustic and will break down the rubber components of older engines and tanks not made to take it. Anything that disintegrates , get dissolved and pushed thru the carb. It causes all kinds of problems . Look for stations that offer non ethanol gas .

You definitely want to get out very early and late for staggers . I find it slows way down after the first 2 hrs , USUALLY ,and just before dark they turn on . . Sometimes it's good all day ,especially if it is choppy or cloudy and raining .

J plugs are pretty much all I run now till the end of the season. But maybe not this year as I have testing to do . I have 30# and put 25 ft of 15 or 20# on . Tie direct to the j plug , no swivels . I use #3 ,#4 size . I have 2 riggers on my small boat and run 1 rod on each . That's it . All I need . First light in close 12 to 20 ft depth , setback both same of 50 to 75 ft . One Ball 10 ft off bottom on one half way down on other . Ball may be just under surface . Deeper , setback of 35 ft . I know the plugs dive 7 ft in 35 ft . And the fish like to sit on the bottom when Sun comes up . Mid day I have run them back 150 ft to get a hit and it works sometime . Colors ... sliver bullet , w/ w/o red head , glow green florescent , white black dot ( first light killer ) watermelon , and there are others . It's a misnomer that they need to be run fast . I get fish going slow with them also so vary your speed and turn a lot .

And NEVER use ethanol fuel in older outboard motors . EVER .

So my neighbor is a Rochester city officer . She is on the front lines with the face shield and night stick pushing back "peacefull protesters" . She tells my wife the other night she had a commercial fireworks go off a few feet from her and has powder burns , has things thrown at her , people screaming in her face calling her everything in the book . Her eyes burn from pepper spray they have to use . She has been out there since the beginning of all this .And it has been he'll. I tell my wife we have to do something for her . We get her a 12 pack of local craft brew , my wife bakes her something and we go over this morning . Bang on the door and her family is there . I say we want you to have this for all the BS crap you have been taking and we support you and are gratefull for you, appreciate you , and keep your head up . She breaks down in my wife's arms. Wasn't expecting that .Said it is tough because they revive no support from the Mayor ,etc . Occasionally people thank them . She feels torn between her young family and kids and her brothers and sisters on the force who are exhausted . So if you know someone and love someone , even if you don't , let them know . Tell them we are out here and appreciate what they are doing . And to keep their head up . They need to hear it . As I found out today .

We use to go next weekend annually with the boys for years . We have run into some bad weather / wind/ rain. Woke up one morning to skim ice in the puddles . So we moved it up to 3rd weekend in Aug because THEY are turning into geriatrics. But the pike fishing was way better later and we still did a lot of bass . I would take the boat only for comfort and safety in the wind I love to fish for pike up there casting #5 Mepps or spinner baits over submerged weed beds and jig for bass on weed edges and drop offs . Bass first light , drift over weed beds for pike mid day . WIRE LEADER !! HAVE FUN ! Good breakfast at Blue moon or Lumberjack . But you should know that .

Days like that make you appreciate the good ones It use to bother me bad but I learned its part of it . A lot of tackle shops made a butt load of Money off me after days like today .:-)

First time out in a while Put out 4 flashers . Started in 40 and worked out to 140 One hit 55 down . First skunk of the year. Rough seas , so we called it at 8 Was a good year . Pulling the big boat tommorow . Then it's Small Boatin`!!

A company or individual that can make a mold for a modified bait head And produce the product . I'm thinking it's injection molded plastic of some sort . Thanks

Silver bullet with or without red head Glow green florescent with or without ladders back Pearl w / black dots . #3 and #4 I had a watermelon one last year that was good also when Sun came up

I use 11" paddles on my riggers and 8 " spin Dr and pro trolls on my dipsys . They both work equally well .
