    odd d.r. weight

    Just picked up an odd fish shaped,yellow, dr weight with "Riviera "embossed on the side. Has a removable (I think) plug on the back and appears to be filled with lead shot. Gave 18 bucks for it ,(tackle junky, hopeless) and will try it out this season. Anybody familiar with these?? Weighs about...

    High $$$ Coolers?

    I run these in 10 day horse camps for elk ,and all summer fishing. If your carefull about opening the lid, use a separate cooler for long term frozen food storage (stays mostly closed) and keep the coolers in the shade or toss a tarp over them ,than I frequently get well over a week of cold...

    High $$$ Coolers?

    use a one or two inch thick ,by about 1 ft square chunk of dry ice on the bottom of a quality cooler like the exreme. Put a half inch thick chunk of foam under and over it. Don't let it get wet,, wrap it in cloth. One week (or longer) no problem..... Do it every year for...

    koke number's!

    I tried the 1/0 hook for a short while last season to see if it would slow down the "shaker" catch. They still hit it and wound up as eagle-heron-osprey food when I released them. Now I keep them as part of my limit,they do eat well and try to id and stay out of areas in the lake where I seem to...

    quick change clevis

    If blade loss or breakage isn't an issue, and apparantly only one person(a tackle seller) says it is, than there's no downside. Sounds like the better way to go..

    quick change clevis

    You want logic? I'm a tackle junky,!!! but they seemed bigger, easier to thread up (small holes and old eyes) and offer the option of changing the blade. Why change the blade,your about to ask*** Dunno, never had the option before, thought it might be a handy thing if conditions change. Too...

    quick change clevis

    I've just been told that the quick change clevis tends to open up when your playing a fish and lose blades. Hope not,, as I ordered a bunch and was about to build up some spinners. Does this happen to anyone else.?? Any fix???

    blade size

    I see on a few areas where others are moving up to bigger (size 5 and 6) Indiana blades on their wedding ring style spinners. Claims are more strikes. I have always used size 2,, as do commercial makers like Macks. Any thoughts on it here??

    DR weight color

    dunno, never gave it much thought. seems to me the troll looks like a school of baitfish, what would the weight look like??

    DR weight color

    curious, I've always run a short flashy (18.in) troll behind my weights and would think you want attention on the troll flash and not on the ball..

    DR weight color

    noticed bright orenge appearing last year I always used black. Does it make a whit of difference??

    Bottom Bouncing your DR weight

    precisely,....hang it 3 ft below the DR ball on a length of 8lb mono,and so what if it snags, it pops off and you hang another..Why risk an expensive ball and cable??

    Lakers.....

    what size dead trout?? How do you rig them??

    Bottom Bouncing your DR weight

    I am equally curious about this technique..How and why is it done, and is it primarily a lake trout technique? The obvious risk is the hang up, could you not run a sacrificial second weight,secured to the primary dr weight with light mono that would snap off in the event of a snag thereby...
