    All right, here is my first of the year. Squished fatheads, and amazingly the same FOW as Dan’s cat on the 2010 thread

    Get careless just one time and this is what happens. And Pug, come on down to Z Town and we can get you on a few too. Cats that is, not the bloody hand.

    Thanks. It does look like the Zumbro witch doctor gave me the old shrunken head don’t it? Self timer photos suck.

    Last night I kept 5 for eating. Man that was a lot of fish.

    I think I am trying Sonnies next trip to MR. I was going to the last trip, but it is not very pliable (from last year) and I forgot to add a little oil to the jar.

    I talked to the owner of Sonny’s a few years back. One to the top mistakes Stink Bait users do is add too much oil.

    Less is more.

    I know you know that Puggy, but thought I would add for new stink bait users.

    I would never have guessed but the maker of Secret 7 was telling me that stink is a very good winter/cold weather bait. Some people put the container in a cooler to keep it warm while outdoors.

    I’ve been using the stink more and more lately. I have even gotten a few in the mid to upper 20 in on it. I’m finding they hit it a little different than cut bait but I am gaining more confidence in the stuff. This is the same tub I bought from Dean last summer, and it seems to have kept very well for me and I just leave it outside in the garage.
    I bring it with me everytime I plan on going fishing. I guess that could explain why all my fishing buddies say they will just “meet me there”
