I have fished both and had good results in both. When it comes down to it, SH is the better experience.

I had the same thing happen to me today. I still spent just as much money. I was assured that the item I was looking for would be in tomorrow.

One thing to keep in mind, many shop owners buy on credit. Thus re stocking at the end of the year could result in a loss for them.

The spoon in question is a happe meal.

Get a hold of me and I can get it back to new again. Sounds like your past the point of a steel and need some whetstone work done.

PM catch...

Classic!

If you're fishing 90+ FOW, look at adding another 1lb. Also I would not recommend trying any turns with this out. Good luck!

Mixed Vegies

Tuna Tom's is the place to go. They saved me a lot of $ on a reel a dropped of this past week.

I tend to donate a pair to the water, if not two, every year. Thus I keep buying less expensive glasses. Polarized is a must for fishing.

Good luck on the shake down trip!

The one Kevin spotted is: Fireboat

Not sure how much you would need, but would recommend buying the 600' spool.

Patience and lots of phone calls!

Sometimes it does not matter what you do. You can't catch what is not there. I agree with bumping up the speed and going on a recon mission. Find an area you feel comfortable with and work it. If nothing happens, keep going again. Time can be a factor in this. Most charters only have +/-5 hours dock to dock to try and find a boat load of fish. If you are out all day, you can spend more time searching.

If there are fish and they just are on a negative feed, thats when patience comes in. I have confidence in the baits I present to the fish. I try not to get too crazy changing baits. There definitely are times when bait changes can help but it can also be too much. If the fish turn back on you may have taken off all your clutch baits. I have taken the leash off of heavy bait changing guys just to get back to the dock scratching my head looking at whats on my rods wondering if we ever really gave ourselves a chance.

I couldn't have said it better myself.

I start with 75' and retie at 15' .

We waited it out for a while on the lake. Didn't want the head ache at the ramp.

what are you running behind the cow bells?? how far back??

Spiny Water Fleas.

No pics of the fish we caught, only of the storm that chaced us off.

I think that all Dream Weavers are stamped with a DW.

As Randy said but our deep one had a 14# Ridgeback Rattler on the MANUAL rigger. Had to get the rod quick so ya didntr have to crank that beast up:D

Better bring your running shoes next time.

1 rigger was 70 down. The other was on the bottom or as far as 140 out.

How about August 6&7 in Manistee?
