SW spinnerbaits

Seriously Buck... this is good stuff. Not the Rodney rant. This is what
was referring to: SNIP

Ok, my mistake. I was replying to the whole post in question

That fiberglass will save your life one day too! I'd hate to be in a tin
boat trying to cut through some of those bad waves... Sure, it can be done
but I just feel safer in the fiberglass. Plus, you'll really get blown all
over the lake with high sides. Maybe a couple of drift socks though, will
hold you enough.

Guess no-one makes a striper boat, but Jim Duckworth here in Tennessee makes
his own. www.jimduckworth.com

well i don't know. i fish 75% of the time for hybrid striper in the
middle
of the lake on some awful windy days. the champion is great when running
through the waves, but suffers a little from spray when just sitting.

i don't tournament fish anymore for bass, hardly bass fish outside of
winter, and have a '96 champion i am thinking about selling. the lund i
want is about 34k which is about the same as a new bass boat, but has a
few
features i really want like bait wells, and high sides.

i may or may not, go for it. i was a little disapointed in what the
dealer
offered for the champion and may just keep it. it has brought a lot of
fish
over the side, and i only guide about 10 trips a year now, all repeat guys
who don't care about the boat as long as we catch fish.

They were classic.

Well, after reading posts about the Secret Weapon
spinnerbaits,
I
have
finally decided to give them a try. As if I needed more
spinnerbaits,
I
ordered 3 today. Got a friend of mine to order some as well so we
could
order together. We each got 3 in different sizes and colors.
Hoping
they
will get here before the 31st so I can try them out on a local
tournament
here!
At least if they work, we wont be lying to the members of our bass
club
when
we say we caught them on a 'secret weapon'.

Good thing everything's archived on the internet, I think I'll forward some
of your more amusing posts to Renosky & Mojo.

You said you were not going to post to this group anymore...just lurk,
and read?

Rodney told his psychiatrist that everyone hates him. His psychiatrist told
him that was ridiculous - he hasn't met everyone yet!

Come on guys, we have to cut Rodney a little slack. Ever since he was born
his mother has had morning sickness.

Talk about rejection, ever since Rodney was a kid and wanted to go
ice-fishing, his family would tell him, "Wait til it gets warmer."

When Rodney was born the doctor came out to the waiting room and said to his
father, "I'm so very sorry. We did everything we could...but he pulled
through."

You know Rodney had it tough, every time he played in the sandbox as a kid,
his cat kept trying to cover him up.

And you could tell how much his parents loved him. Every time Rodney went
to take a bath, his parents would yell, "Don't forget to plug in the radio,
hair dryer, and your electric toothbrush."

Although his parents were outstanding citizens. They offered to make him a
poster boy . . for birth control.

Once as a kid he was lost, and asked a police officer to help him find his
parents. The Officer turned and saw him and said, "I don't know kid. There
are too many places for them to hide."

Every time his father wanted sex, his mother would hold up a picture of him.

The other day Rodney went for a physical. He asked the doctor, "Doc, every
morning when I get up and look in the mirror I feel like throwing up.
What's wrong with me? The doctor told him, "I don't know, but your eyesight
is perfect."

I thought it was time to insert a little humor.

Great explaination Warren... and I'd probably think about putting this
info
in the FAQ's if anyone wants to second it


I'll second it! I already put it in my save file.

i was under the impression the lund was supposed to be the ultimate rough
water boat. the wind factor though is one i have considered. it would be a
drifting machine in a stiff breeze.

never used a drift sock, but on a big school of hybrids we will pitch an
anchor once in a while. that is one of the worst times in the champion.
man talk about bobbing in the waves. enough to make a guy seasick.

Who is this? It can't be Rodney, as he said LAST post would be his last
and we all know he'd never lie.

As to him not having any rubber bands, you obviously haven't checked
ABPF today. heh heh

Maybe try a drift sock on the Champion. I haven't had a chance to actually
use mine yet... so it may be the same as setting out an anchor... I don't
know. Just guessing.
