Had to sell my Pondtoon due to my stage 4 cancer, gotten bad enough I can't fish anymore. I just about cried when it pulled out of my driveway!

Make a curl tail into a straight tail - a big improvement!

As my forum name suggests, I like live bait. It is not so much the bait, but I'm still a kid at heart and like to watch the bobber dance and move. The thrill of anticipation in the time between watching a bobber go down and setting the hook never goes away for me. If I can't find them with a fixed float set to 5 feet or less then my next favorite is a 1/64 oz black beetle reeled slowly along the bottom contour. I am coming around to the bison colored trout magnet also, but the black beetle is my normal go to.
For bait, I like bay shrimp,salted to harden them up, marinaded with scent oil & fished drop shot style on small Aberdeen hook. Do get lots of small sunfish with shrimp,but action usually constant & good mix of bigger ones also.Everything likes shrimp but be prepared to rebait alot .

I use jigs that I pour and tye - mainly the Chubhead (1/24th & 1/48th w/wo blades) for trolling and the Roundhead (1/32nd) for casting. Sometimes I will switch them. All the jigs are poured with a #6 BLN Lil' Nasty hook.
Like to fish tipped with crickets/mealworms or plain. I'm stuck in a rut and that's all I fish with - except for Lake Havasu (the bigger fish prefer tipping with half of a worm).
Lake Havasu has some monster size Shellcrackers in it. My Oregon fishing buddy lived on Lake Havasu for years until he renovated his Oregon river house and moved there permanently.
