Holy cow what a reel! Those "economic stimulus" checks should be coming in a couple months...maybe that could be your excuse for getting one Jim. You'd just be doing your part to help your country if you bought it. Frankly I think it would be unfair to all of America if you didn't buy one. I'd...

Nope didn't work on the Senko. It worked fine on a couple other sticks though. I rarely use actual Senkos anymore so it's not a big problem for me. I think it will work well for swimbaits.

I just bought a bottle of Mend-It on friday. Haven't used it much yet and I have mixed feelings so far. I can't see myself bringing it in the boat and using it while fishing, but it should be good for repairing expensive plastic baits when I'm at home. The mends are soft and pliable, with no...

Terrific job! That's a really great looking boat. Now I remember why I don't look in the Boat forums much. Because when I see all the beautiful mods all you guys have done to your boats, I remember what a piece of garbage mine is.

I knew Shimano had a reputation for good customer service, but they really seem to go out of their way. Sounds like you guys have experienced this already. Coincidentally I also cashed my rebate check yesterday for the Curado I bought in late December. Might have to pick up another reel before...

A couple weeks ago I sent two reels in to Shimano for repair. My Calcutta 251 and a Corsair 401 that I use for headboat fishing. These things were messed up, especially the Corsair. I was just gonna order some parts and fix em myself but they needed a ton of cleaning and a bunch of new parts so...

I like Alluring Bait's Trick sticks just because I can get 50 for $8. I really haven't noticed much difference in effectiveness with the different brands of sticks. I will sometimes buy the originals when they're on sale though.

Very cool! That looks like a nicer version of the old Powerpak Shad!

Maybe. But my mom always told me I should wait until I'm married to move out of state. :wink:

15 years. By then this site will be called www dot titaniumhoverboats dot net

I'm Bryan in Virginia. Another self-explanatory name. Can't wait till I turn 40, then I can change my screen name to The_40yr_Old_Virginian

I'm a huge fan of Luhr Jensen Speed Traps

I think they look good, might give em a shot this summer.

Those grubs look like flounder crack. I'm sure they'd be great for trout (weakfish) too.

Now THAT picture is awesome! Nice croakers!
