tangled mess

I will be there every day at the Sliver Streak booth.

It is time for us to stop sitting around and stand up for our selfs and write our Reps and let them know how we feel about what is going on

The pink is my fav line

I run 30 foot max and let it get down to 6 or 8 foot than retie when you get to much leader out there it will start to rise back up and you don't get the depth you thought you did.

I run mine 5 or 6 feet with 20# floro carbon

Just thought i would put this out there.

Urgent Notice

Call the White House on Monday!

On Monday in Washington, D.C., President Obama's staff is holding a closed-door meeting about what actions the federal government might take to stop Asian carp from entering the Great Lakes. While you can't see what happens in the meeting, you can call the White House at 202-456-1414 to voice your opinion.

Make Your Opinion Clear: Close The Locks And Stop Asian Carp From Entering The Great Lakes

If everyone who signed up at StopAsianCarp.com called the White House at 202-456-1414, the President would hear from thousands of people in the Midwest who want the locks closed and the Great Lakes protected.

Call Monday: 202-456-1414

So, on Monday morning, please grab your phone and dial 202-456-1414. Call the White House. Tell them you know there is a closed-door meeting about Asian carp today but you want your voice heard.

Permanently close the locks in Chicago before Asian carp can get into Lake Michigan and beyond, ruining our lakes and killing thousands of jobs.

Rumors of a federal plan that would leave the locks open most days have begun to be published in media reports. For example, under one scenario the locks would be open four days per week and closed three days. This makes no more sense than keeping criminals in jail four days a week and hoping nothing bad happens on the other three days. When will the emphasis be placed on protecting the Great Lakes instead of the narrow interests of one state?

Thank You For Your Help

Your vocal efforts on this issue have helped raise the level of attention paid to this crisis here in Michigan, across the Midwest and now in Washington. As our multi-state lawsuit continues before the U.S. Supreme Court, we can only hope that officials in charge will change their stance and announce immediate steps to close the locks and move toward a permanent separation of the Mississippi River and Great Lakes basins. With your help, we can make that happen.

Sincerely,

Mike Cox

Michigan Attorney General

If you go with a charter make sure you ask or tell them you are going out to learn and have your own boat and ask them if they are willing to show what there doing.Some guys do not what you to know what is going on,so it is best to ask first.

Thank you Terry for your help today.

Another good thing about offshore board is the foam dose not fall out of the back of the board and if something happens to the foam you can replace it for under a dollar with Church you pay between 3-5 for there replacement foam.

The nice thing about streaks is you can troll them at slow speed all the way up to 5 plus and catch fish on them.And when you catch a fish the paint stays on fish after fish.The main thing is to adjust the size spoon you run to the size of the bait that is out there.All brands have there time and place but i have found streaks to be the best all around spoon for all conditions.

I have mixed them in in the past with out a problem just have to watch what you are doing.
