These would probably be a smarter purchase

They even have a pocket to add handwarmers for those extra cold days ;)

Yep

I have those but in the finger design. Tips of my fingers get frostbitten everytime out. The heat pack built into the gloves are great also. On the really cold days I wear a liner glove under.

I think they have these at Sail

Never dip my hands in the ice water and I always carry a net.

float, how did you manage to get so many ? im sure your not targeting them but just wondering

If you put in as much time time as FD does you are bound to run into them.
They run in the tribs with the rest of them

I usually get a fish on every drift because I am a very experienced angler. I am very experienced because I am fortunate to spend a lot of time fishing. than 10 minutes on 6lb line. My guiding service, on average, will be around 2 to 3 couple of hours.

Wow a fish on every drift. I would make bets u don't

#208603 Speaking of chumming...

Posted by jc53 on 19 November 2010 - 11:14 PM

I searched online but couldn't find any references to the actual TV episode. While searching, I did however find plenty of references to guys in the southern US using partially inflated balloons to float minnows for bass.

I'll see if I can find anything about chumming with live minnows for bass.


Hey
Those are probably not minnows but shiners. Shiners are at least 6 - 8" long are used under a balloon to catch the big boys.
I when I was down there many moons ago I used to fish with my cousin that way. U could tell when a big bass was around cause the balloon with the shiner was moving @ like crazy.

I use a baitcaster, Shimano Scorpion XT1000 and St. Croix rod. 20 lb braid with 15 lb flouro leader. Also use circle hooks 2/0, 99% of the time in the corner of the mouth.
