great report AB!!

i am a HUGE fan of the wolfram jigs from yourbobbersdown.com, and the gill pills. in all colors!! I am also going to try plastics this year... bros blood woms look great and so do the nuggies from atomic. I use spikes, waxies, and wigglers and all seem to produce..

here ya go.. byw this is just on mono when i came up with the idea

i;m down

i will run a size 2 wide gap gamagutsu (sp) for main like i use 30lb power pro, build my own wire leaders, i also add glow beads and rattles, and holographic spinner bait blades as well... i run a few diff types of set ups. I also use only pro therm tip ups, they stop the holes from freezing and also block the light from shining down the hole

so looking at the current forcast how long do you think before we have fishable ice?

Happy 234th Birthday Marines!

From the Halls of Montezuma,

To the shores of Tripoli;

We fight our country's battles

In the air, on land, and sea;

First to fight for right and freedom

And to keep our honor clean;

We are proud to claim the title

Of United States Marine.

Our flag's unfurled to every breeze

From dawn to setting sun;

We have fought in every clime and place

Where we could take a gun;

In the snow of far-off Northern lands

And in sunny tropic scenes;

You will find us always on the job

The United States Marines.

Here's health to you and to our Corps

Which we are proud to serve;

In many a strife we've fought for life

And never lost our nerve;

If the Army and the Navy

Ever look on Heaven’s scenes;

They will find the streets are guarded

By United States Marines

SEMPER FI!!

wow i guess i am the only one that goes right to the forums

yeah. when u buy thunderheads how many come in a box/pack?

carbron is the way to go! never have to worry if ur arrow is bent or not and like you said super strong and way better penatration. i shoot the easton axis arrows and i am not over happy with them being so brittle so next year u will be switching to somthing else as well as buying a new bow. mike do u shoot blazers or long viens?

congrats mike!!!

It is the same as your old bow, a Point Blank. I have it backed down 2 1/2 turns= 65lbs. Arrows are Carbon Express Terminator Lite Hunter 6075 w/ Thunderhead 125.

oh ok... i tell u what my bow LOVES muzzys and rages if that helps ya at all. both fly just the same as my field points and after shooting 2 deer this year with the rage i am not looking back!

This is only my third year with a bow. I have yet to take a shot at a deer. I have had opportunities, but will only shot a 2 1/2 year buck or better during the bow season. Only once have I had that criteria present its self and could not get a draw on him. I would use those used blades for practice, as my field tips do not fly the same as my broad heads.

what set up are u using? broadhead, arrow, bow poundage ect.

i norm do not use again ( because i tend to break my arrow after shooting a deer with it) so i keep the broadhead on the broken shaft for a momento (sp) if i miss and have the blades i will replace.

lol sure thing

yeah i can understand that. i am good friends with both of them

Craig from Grand Rapids?
