The problems with that are:
1) Then I have no graph at the bow when I’m up there riggin or jigging.
2) On my skeeter, I don’t think there is enough room for both of them
There is no problem – you just need another unit!!!
December 25, 2013 at 7:56 pm #1374183Schuckem’s has the best oyster’s and Schooners is a great beach front bar/restaurant….Schuckem’s also has “Wisconsin Night” from time to time where they special import Miller Light just for “us” to drink…LOL….’bout all I got.
December 22, 2013 at 10:20 pm #1373492I’m also running a talon on a 19+ Ranger. On the river multiple days a week. I fish in slop and muck as much as possible…haven’t had any issues in the “muck”. Recommend getting the break away bracket.
December 7, 2013 at 7:19 pm #1369576I agree…that’s my only complaint is stripping the line out Otherwise I like them.
October 19, 2013 at 2:54 am #1184143Joel in your own link it states the following:
Quote:
When a fish strikes snap the rod up, over your shoulder or off to one side (sometimes called a side set). If doing the latter, you can twist at the waist to increase the power of your hookset. Before setting the hook it is critical to reel in slack line and point the rod towards the fish before snapping it back. Without doing these two steps, you’ll decrease the effectiveness of the set. As you reel the line in and move the rod towards the fish, you should feel the fish’s weight. Once the slack is gone and you can feel weight, keep your elbows in and quickly snap the rod up and over your shoulders using your forearms.
this really is no different than what Tom is talking about…only difference is we can do the whole motion in a split second….
If you’re “hopping” a bait and the fish hits while you’re rod is at 12 O’clock….You can either do an Iaconelli and arch yourself back so hard you fall into the seat or drop your rod tip and give’r the coals…
Bass angling is a different beast so our techniques might not be what’s best for other applications…..but it’s not wrong, it’s what works for how we fish…The other points in having sharp hooks is critical. Rarely do you want to “double-set” either….but if you can do the drop set with a hair trigger I think it’s fine…
October 1, 2013 at 5:04 am #1197792If all the above fails – Get a compression test done….and brace for the worst.
September 17, 2013 at 1:21 am #131944agreed…..contact his supervisor and correct the behavior if needed (hopefully). I’m gonna inquire with my warden….he’s good sh*t
September 15, 2013 at 3:24 am #1194965Thanks Brian, James, and Dave…..back home and doing great…..I’m outfitting his first fishing pole tomorrow….
August 24, 2013 at 1:30 am #131487Today’s crossbows shoot further and faster than ever before. My concern is that people who didn’t have the patience for bow hunting before are going to see this as an easy way to get out there and shoot more deer without having to do much work. Just don’t want to see a bunch of shadetree hunters heading out and flinging arrows all over the place, taking shots they shouldn’t b/c they can.
August 10, 2013 at 2:40 am #1188842I’ve had one tied on since Brandon Palaniuk was dominating the River Rumble on it. They catch fish…but I’m not certain they are world’s above some of the other top square bills on the market. I have noticed that they come through/off snags very well…I’ll continue to throw them the rest of the season to get a better feel for them.
June 28, 2013 at 6:00 am #1180696To call him a cheater is a bit out of line there G…He made a mistake and fully owned it when it was brought to his attention. Be careful throwing labels around like that…I know you love stirring the pot on here and do so often with a smile and that’s cool….but don’t tarnish the kids reputation when it’s simply not the truth.
April 2, 2013 at 11:23 pm #1158652You might also look at Orca Coolers……
same concept….haven’t compared the prices between the two though……
February 20, 2013 at 3:55 am #1143781an amazing act – and a very humbling story for many of us to read I’m sure.
January 16, 2013 at 4:28 am #1131276Not the greatest of all time – but haven’t seen John Pinnette on here yet….He’s the big dude who did all the Chinese Buffet bits……”You been here FOUR HOUR – YOU GO NOW!!!”
December 19, 2012 at 1:06 am #128195This is a really long article – but well worth the read…as it sounds as if Adam Lanza is the grown version of what you read below:
December 9, 2012 at 10:39 pm #1118964I don’t fish for Musky – but I agree with this being a Catch & Release only type tactic and I disagree with it. It’s hard enough to get a 50″ (but attainable) – let alone a 56″ which has to be rare.
December 9, 2012 at 10:26 pm #1118958Windows 8 is meant for tablets and phones….I would not recommend it for home or business use. It’s too big of a change to deal with and not user friendly for the old applications and knowledge the average user is used to.
November 25, 2012 at 10:33 pm #127340I double downed on this pair of doe’s today to end the season……..More points for team 12!!!
