Re: We have lost a very dear friend

That is a true loss. He was a great friend. He and I were in the West Valley Bassmasters together for years. What a hoot ! He had a great sense of humor and always a smile when he greated you. You could hear his laugh across the pond and knew it was Dave. We lost Val White from Action Tackle in Dece...

Re: Yamaha Vmax Prop Blade Crack

We have had all sorts of claims on hull and motors for the repair of the chunks that thay take out when the let ...

Re: New US Reel flip/pitch reel

They are working on it ! They are a start up company with a great new product. I heard that they are in the process of making a spinning reel that will compete and then the Left hander. Keep watching.

Re: Looking for a concensus, IF there is one on line test...

George Sight fishing isn't rocket science. Its a short pitch to a fish locked in to protect a small area in a lake. Most times next to some sort of structure or brush. The fish will let you know what it will eat real quick. As you can see ...they are saying use anything from 6 lb to 25 lb, from flor...

Re: New US Reel flip/pitch reel

The US Reels are made in China...go figure. I havent had the chance to use one of them yet. The Ardent reels on the other hand I have used there baitcasters and love them. The new flip/pitch reel is a step away from what we are used to. No level wind ... No star drag, it is pre set at 28 LBS of drag...

Re: NEW ROD ADVICE

The St Croix Avid 6' 8" is a great choice. The Avid series maybe the best rod on the market for the money. Their technology at St Croix is way ahead of the rest the industry, and they dont skimp on the components. It has a light enough tip for good presentation and still has plenty of back bone...

Re: Hey Stan V. - Nice Guiding Job!

Good Luck at the Open.
I wish I was fishing it. I had it in the date book for Sept and they changed the date. Now I have a family trip in the middle of the open dates after I get back from the ocean. So ... next year.

Re: Straightening grub tails

Boil some water in a small pot. Dip the grub tail in the boiling water for a few. It will soften the plastic enough to take the kink out. Then lay it flat until it cools and you should be in business. You can do the same treatment on any plastic baits that you might want to either strighten out, or ...
