@dano, dont all the elites get a comped boat as well that they can sell every year as well ? new rods and reels every year, which they can sell off as well...right there is another $40,000 after the year ends ....granted not all the pros are making big money. but to leave the west just craving for ...

DanO

really the elites cant afford the gas to come out west ? give me a break :lol: This sounds like you assume all of these guys make huge income fishing, and let me tell you, there is definitely a wide disparity between the field when it comes to sponsor dollars. From polling several in my working wit...

The lake is at 415 feet and rising, the speed limit should be lifted automatically.

Very true and just for a current example, check this out..... http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Berkley_ ... -HSFS.html If i was the Little Creepers guy, I would pull all my baits from tackle warehouse... If i had no confidence in my chigger craws I would not fish Berkley period... You don't know the ...

DanO

Yes I have.

Serves the same purpose as the others, but at less overall cost because you use less than the others.

I got some samples from Cliff Crochet, Bradley Roy and Keith Combs, and then ordered some after that.

No, it can't void warranty.

There is a law that states the manufacturer can only void a warranty if they provide the oil in question.

It will not void the warranty, and any oil that meets manufacturer specifications is acceptable to use in your engine at any time.

my bad, thought it was held over the weekend, my days have been a little mixed up lately.

Thanks guys,

Not trying to start any issues with this question. Genuinely want to know how it turned out.

Does anyone know where the results for the Lucas Oil event at Lake Mead have been published?

I couldn't locate them on the ABA website.

I've got an update for you. I was able to break in to the garage of a certain Bassmaster AOY and Classic Champ from Auburn, Calif. and steal some of his personal fishing rods. I'll have an assortment of W&M Co. rods - including some original prototypes only seen by him. Come check those out, $50...

Hey Johns... I'll be there. I'm bringing a bunch of the Lim-it Lures of California leftover stock of darter heads, football heads and even a few finished baits to try and help Paul "Stretch" Cunningham's family clear up some of the debt issues that are still hanging over them after the unt...

Rodger, that's not what happened at all. Future Pro Tour was not fined, and they were not banned from tournaments at Clear Lake for a year. To Vince's credit, he went to DFG and had a self scheduled meeting to ask what he could do to improve procedure. DFG reviewed their notes and provided him a let...

I don't normally post my own work on here, but this happened while I was filming videos at the Classic Practice Day.

The Pay Per view and Television broadcasts are going to be different.

From someone who was there, on the water... Lots of lures make appearances, both in cameo and starring roles. The patterns and how anglers caught the fish is not the whole story with Major League Fishing either. Watching the guys put the pieces together under extreme pressure of time, a new format, ...

Congrats on your first tournament, you'll always remember that first trophy.

Better get out there and let your voice be heard.

Black bass are next, better show up in force.

I'm traveling through Alabama and Texas the next two weeks, or I'd be there. But, this is real, and quite damaging for the Delta.

So, everyone that has a one fish bag should automatically have it marked as a "Big Fish?" Many tournament rules require anglers to declare that they want a fish weighed as a big fish. Many tournaments also use the biggest bass as the first tie breaker, so asking to have one weighed is a go...

The Davis Bait Company Shaky Fish is the original that Aaron launched a few years ago. Aaron is on the Davis Bait Company pro staff and brought his original design with him.

The U.S. Open is certainly THE event on the left coast, and Tony, you're absolutely correct that there are more stories at an event like that than could ever be covered by a simple press release.

Why Don't you ask why WON Bass didn't send Press Releases with standings to the independent bass fishing media? It's customary for an organization; such as B.A.S.S., FLW or WON Bass (in the case of the U.S. Open) to broadcast press releases with daily standings, or at minimum, the final standings if...

I have owned at least 8 pair of Wiley X and have never seen any pear break that wasn't sat on or stepped on. They are rated to take shrapnel impact at 150 feet per second for the military and are ANZI87 rated for OSHA safety compliance. The reason I don't have all 8 pair is because I have shared the...

According to their western rep Red Label is designed to be more of an entry level / budget level line. From what I understand, Carbon Pro is being discontinued and being replaced with Invizix, and the high level premium Tatsu.

Don't believe Scroggins is sponsored by either Lowrance or Humminbird, but don't know for sure. Over the past few years, before Lowrance came out with Structure Scan, some of the guys who were loyal to Lowrance ran, or hid humminbird units in their boats for the Side Imaging. It is such a useful and...

He's been the number one ChampioN dealer in the country many times.

Rick was a ChampioN dealer long before selling Ranger, and he is very good at what he does.

He'll know the scoop, and will talk about it when he can.
