I wouldn't change back from sinking tip line now that i'm used to it, but thanks for the link, i'll check it out. I have a pole with just a leader and tippet that could use some quick weight on...

I always used them, I swear I couldn't keep them on. after 3 or 4 casts they'd be gone. I even squeezed them with pliers. I put alot of lead in the water :-)

Are U saying a split shot presents a fly on a tapered leader the same as a
3-5' sink tip directly off the float line with a 16-24" tippet? Mind U this is just a question with no right or wrong...

Just a tip if your gonna add sink tip to your floating line. It sell (usually in 30' lengths) I cut 2', 5', 10' an 12' sinking tip and change as I feel its needed. i use a fishfinder, cruise the...

So many people being out of work, they have to look for the best deals. What can you do when you have kids, a low paying job and the family that needs things.

I contacted my clouser supplier and he told me the dfference between the bent down hook tip and the straight tip was one was for salt water, the other for for fresh......Bob clouser uses the same...

I bought a used military shotgun sling and it had made in China on it. All of those big cargo container ships that come in heavy from China go out just as heavy......our money must weigh...

JIm;
these big box stores need to go.....they just command TOO MUCH of our nations economic stability. I didn't mean to attempt to endorse the Bullet bobber but I like the thought off...

They don't sell guns at those stores anymore do they? I bought my first shotgun at K-mart, 16 ga single shot...shot it once hit a sign and my cousin and the barrel split. That was in the 70's. I...

I found a picture of the slumpbuster after a search and it looks alot like the Zonkers I use. Now I HAVE caught a lot of crappie on this fly and use it regularly.

Now that's something new to me. The clousers I bought off the internet had the eye bent up towards the hook. I was under the assumption thats what made them move snaggless with the hook facing up. ...

Paul, you may not be at walmart but most of my purchases are from the internet. You got a good product and word will get around...every business has to have time to grow, you're in that process...

Crazycrappie,
I was wondering the same thing. We have alot of private ponds that you can catch fish all day long but the owner doesn't let you keep them. At the worst fishing...

I only use tapered leader for trout fishing. I changed over to the 4-5' of sinking tip on 2' of flourocarbon line (supposedly invisible in the water) the knot I was talking about was hooking the...

I hear that. Even in NE Ohio the sporting goods are small at Walmart. I went to K-Mart and it was like 6 aisles bigger.

Here is what i've just changed over to. I like a DT line but have a rod WF and in this instance seem to work well. I have been using a 5' T-8 sinking tip with a variety of tippet sizes and brands...

DBD, Thanks, I just call them 'beadheads'. Looks like a black BH wooley Buggar to me. How do you work them slow steady return or short quick strips......Fishing has been bad around here this year...

QK, I've been readin so much about leaders and their role in presentation I've all but forgottenabout the flies :-) I never thought of using a #10 bead chain eye hares ear wet for anything but...

damn man where you fishin????? private pond? From soft hackle hares ear to a clouser. seems like you can't miss, where ever you are and whatever you're using.....let's hook up, may take a few days...

Geez, that gotta be cold sitting in that water. It's still cold here in Ohio to be using a tube. Looks like you're having fun though!

I've been out on Berlin and Milton and the crappie have be crappy....the few we did catch are thin......went to the bait shop at Berlin and he's showin us photos of a pack of slabs worthy of a days...

Pete, thanks for clearing that up! I would've looked pretty bad taking flies out of my new Louis Vitton bag on the water.......

Well if you're new to fly fishing. Your choice of flies will vary as you get more experience. Toss them poppers and cath a few. Read a little and take less as fact. Do whatever you think is worth...

Great job....it makes it even better when you picked your own flies. Whether you tie them yourself or buy them, the choice and ultimate success is what you put on that line. Don't listen to...

Welcome

Thanks.

Any quick explanation of what 'reserve capacity' means?

The deep discharge thing with the abilty to constantly bring it from, aka 'my canoe that I use all day and run down and want to constantly recharge' is actually the only viable reason. a boat that...

IBN,
Thanks for that link. It explained everything. I told him to get the charging system checked but in the conversation we came up with the marine battery question. Thanks for the answer.

You ever go off roading in a 4 wheeler with a 'car' battery?......they don't have Marine batteries.........
from my understanding it's the 'deep cycle' charge or should I say 're-charge' ....
So...
