I had a problem where I was out on the water and one battery went completely dead, the other two were at like 80%. Contacted Andy, hooked it up to the charger at the hotel and it took a full charge...

My one two punch like that is a 1/8 oz swim jig and a white frog. I'll throw black if they're not hitting white but mostly throwing white.

I'd think Green Pumpkin/black, Watermelon candy and orange/black would come pretty close. I'd do 20 strands of the first 2 and 10 of orange.

you have to make sure you're sharing location.

I think he might be talking about a soft jerkbait like a Fluke. For that, yes...swivel then about a foot of line and then the hook.

I've built a few with the soft touch grips, both split and full. They feel fine but it's subjective, some people may love them. John, I don't think the soft touch are any more sensitive than cork.
...

I use both and sometimes a mix of both. I tie a similar skirt on ned heads to give them some bulk and sink slower also

My buddy has a place on Two Sisters, good lake, been out on it a few times and did well. He's told me that Hodstradt Lake is a sleeper up there (I've never been though). Tomahawk is a good one for...

I was a Shimano guy for 20 years but switched last year to Zillion G's...couldn't be happier I'd go with the 7.1:1

I make my own as well using a Gammy 26R jighead. I'm going to try a few others this year in tungsten, Reins makes one. Deps came out with a new lead one also.

They work.

You can do the same...

Just a different layout, same hull. Same deal with the previous version Classic and P2.

If you're talking about the one with the gold blank/EVA that was from '08 or '09 I think or at least that's the flippin stick. Closest blank to that flippin stick would be the Liberty 804.

The...

I would leave it alone. Just make sure you get off all of the old thread finish. Fish won't know the difference. I've re-guided a lot of old rods and the couple of times I tried to make the blank...

Yep it'll be fine.

You mean FL904 right? Pretty sure there's not a 3 power. I've build a lot of them and have 2 personal rods. Great frog rod and does a lot well, bladed jig, jig, it'll even throw a 6" Magdraft.

I got my grandson one of the under spincast reels. Pretty sure it's a Zebco. Figured it'd be an easier transition to a regular spinning reel. He's 5 btw.

IMO the best frog blank is a Hydra Ng FL4. For NFC I'd recommend an IM MB807 (don't go HM or Xray on a frog rod). I like Point Blank blanks but there isn't one I'd recommend for frogging. I have a...

I thought they were just the regular Neo blanks with the top 3rd having color added. I ordered up a few myself.

Here's a tip to debone them in just a couple of minutes. Put the chicken in a big ziplock bag when it's still warm and then "massage" it. It'll all come apart. Just dump it on a big platter and pick...

Have you tried just using IPA to clean up epoxy? That's what I've been using since I started. My shop isn't really well ventilated and acetone is nasty.

Depends where I'm at, on the river it's hitting something submerged...on popular recreational lakes it's jet skiers. One time I slung a blade on an 23M, didn't know what happened.

Fuji ECSMs are my favorite seat to use, it's an exposed blank. They're like $5. Like ECobb said I buy them a little small and ream them to fit.

A lot, at least around me. I'd pay $10 each for them and strip them for the parts or a lot of guys would just give them to me, mostly those Micro Magics. Anyway, I can see why people liked them, or...

I still flip a decent amount. Especially around wood and log jams on the Mississippi.

It's secured with some velcro strips. It's not perfect but it hasn't gone anywhere. I've checked it a few times after bouncing around on Sturgeon Bay and it hadn't come loose.

I've got a Bass Cat...
