Dude 3 months ago you were posting pics and reports about bait and piers. Now you are posting plugs. It would appear that you are really hooked! There is no turning back. Welcome to the addiction.:laugh:
:scared: thanks steve and your right! i wasted tons of money on bait several times a week and never caught ****! curious to know how long it took others to make the switch? for me it took a little less then a yr as i started saltwater fishing in march 2011. i think :huh:. either march or may. 1 m or the other :ROFLMAO
Xtreme, I have fished the salt for many years, since I was 12. After I finally made the committment to artificials, I caught small bass, but a keeper eluded me....and I worked real hard at it, but the learning curve was steep, as there was no internet to help me along....I'm thinking you may get your keeper a lot sooner than that 2 year timeframe...guess it was a good thing that ya ran into that Darkskies smelly wader dude.....:laugh: :HappyWave:
yeah.... it sure was a good thing u took the time to stop and talk to me that day :cool:
Nice catch:drool: ...don't use them for blue fish:HappyWave:
That right Xtream, don't use them for blues. Fish them slow and not in the day to avoid them. you still get a few.Quote:

Just don't tell your wife the real prices you paid for your gear.
those plugs look great!
oh yes keep the price to your self the ladies will look at you crazy i opened my mouth once :rolleyes: wont do it again:rolleyes:
^ So true gjb! Nice plugs extreme
:fishing: she has been getting a good laugh out of my new addiction as i keep coming home with plugs and receiving packages in the mail :ROFLMAO
lucky for me she likes fishing also :cool: got into saltwater fishing last year with her. thats how i met dark. out fishing with her :headbang:
My condolences, did he talk your ear off?:scared: :laugh:Quote:

he was very brief. i find him to always b in a rush :kooky:
guess u can say i get quality not quantity :cool:
Is this an inside joke or something, does he talk that much? I have a friend who isn't working right now. He talks so much whenever he calls I have to have someone call me from the other room to cut the conversation short. btw those are very nice plugs extreme visions, hope you catch a lot of fish on them!Quote:

well xtreme,
how did those plugs work out?
you posted them in february,it's jan 1st now,so,lets see/hear whats up,,,,,
R-P
They look good...That's about it lol :banghead2:
They never swim right and I don't even bother with them anymore because I have to adjust them ever other cast
Do you mean that your bending the the front loop up or down ?
If I recall correctly I bent them down.
yes up makes plug swim deeper down makes plug swim higher when tuning a plug never bend the metal lip
well X,you have to tune them to swim correctly.you have to actually bend the eye a bit up or down and a little at a time to get them right.Quote:

like spark plugs,thay are not set in the box,you have to set them.
I'll take them off your hands,i always have room for another plug even though thats the last thing I need.
will give you more room for new stuff.

If more folks would pay attention to how their plugs swim they could double their catches.....:learn:Quote:

(But I already beat ya on the offer, called him yesterday afternoon offering to take those "defective plugs" off his hands.....:laugh: )
Actually, after I found out Finchaser had tuned them for him., I kind of yelled at him :argue: and got him to promise to give those plugs some more patience and effort.:fishing:..before one of us "takes them off his hands" ;)
I'm third in line if you dont want those plugs extreme. I'll see to it they are disposed of properly. Let me know.
they swam perfect after i tuned them left a hugh V wake. He reels too fast I told him they are calm water surface plugs. You must reel slow and when you think your reeling slow reel slower especially with his high retrieve Penn Battle. RM's do not track well in moving water they are like Gibbs danny plugs they like calm water and a slow retrieve. Me i'll stick to my Siagon slammers when I fish wood. Wood is good but day in and day out IMO plastics better
Thanks everyone. Hey fin hope all is well. I had the drift of those lures after your lesson. Even if they don't work in my favor I will never let go. 1st plugs I owned.:fishing:
So busy these days but I'm glad I got out the other day. Glad you gave me a call dark. I'm not sure what the record is so far but I clocked you at 1 sentence for 31 min :cool::clapping: I plan to get out again this weekend. And obey all laws :HappyWave:
I thought the wire might be to thin to hold the postion ??? maybe add a little expoy to hold it in place ..just a thought
there RM Smiths the wire is vey heavy Donnie reels tooooooooooooooooooo fast
you will never let go?,,,well then we will just have to take your gear,cut your arms off and fish sharks with them from the beach!Quote:
