Ok, so I recently found that hornworms can be used as bait. However, what I didn't see was what species of fish that would take them. I heard Bass love them but I want to know what others think.

Duct tape is handy. That and electrical tape. Mythbusters made a sail boat out of duct tape once.

I don't really need the books. I can figure things out pretty quickly and off the top of my head and it usually does the job first go around. I'm not a dummy. I have a lot of that stuff already....

I can cram a lot into a small box. So space isn't the problem. But this is more or less an all around kit. One that can be used for any survival situation. Most of what you listed is the basic...

I don't have much of anything at the moment. Mostly thoughts on what I should put in it.

I've already done that but I want to know what other people would put in the kit. The checklists found online are mostly the basic necessary items and i want to know what people would add to it or...

For some reason, I got this urge to build a survival kit. I don't know why, though. So I decided to actually make one using an unused tackle box.

I think I'm on the right track but then again, I...

Thank you. I really appreciate the help. I have more weapons in my arsenal now to haul in the slabs. When I'm able to get to the lake that is.

Would it be effective with fluorocarbon? I picked up some 6lb test fluoro(Trilene 100% Fluorocarbon Professional Grade) that I'm planning to use as leader material for lighter rigs for gills and...

How strong is that knot? Does it slip? What type of line would best be used with that knot?

I recently got a carolina rig that's already put together but I'm not sure what lines to use, how to tie it or how to properly utilize the rig. I saw the one carolina rig drawing here but I'm still...

I like the thought of creating my own molds and it would be out of the Alumilite silicone rubber. That way I can create molds that can't normally be found. I don't need anything fancy. I just want to...

Lately, I have been watching a lot of how-to's on making soft plastics. I recently began to think maybe I could get into this gig and create my own baits. It looks simple enough and rather cost...

i can always add a small piece of chunked up waste lead to the wax before it cools and blend it into the wax to make it less noticeable and smooth.

:biggrin Ok, so i've been thinking about making some of my own gear. I have an idea to make jig heads cheap for small jigs. But i don't know if it has been tried before.

:scratchhead Could using...

the barn where my horse is kept gets gets some wasp nests diring the summer. the mud-gobber wasps are the easiest and safest nest to get since their nests are basically a gob of dirt. ive heard...

i can find crickets all over the place at the barn wehre my mom boards her horse. i found some big worms there too after it rained last night. i have enough options now to have enough back up plans...

bxn, that is actualyla good idea. give the bum rubbers a new lease on life before they are truly bum rubber.

but i guess this settles it. ill have to try the pill bugs on a bottom rig and a float...

the pill bugs sink so i thought those would be really great for bottom fishing for the gills on a small hook(smallest i have is a #10 snelled hook which i think would be perfect). since they are so...

i have a lot of gear. and by a lot i mean a tackle box so full nothing more can really be squeezed into it. and its a three tier box too!

im actually wishing for a job this year(even if its part...

thats just the problem......i have no job and im broke so using stuff like that is expensive to me.

i prefer the free stuff that you can get right outside your back door. either that, around the...

well the pill bug i was able to find were huge. and im talking about maybe a little more than half the size of my thumb nail. what i would do to rig them would be put a whole one on the break one in...

Last night I was looking at all my tackle, not doing much but thinking. But then I thought of something about Bluegills and such. I know they go after worms like a bull in a china shop but what about...

even nail polish is limited. i have mostly dark colors.
