Sent in my money today, should be fun as always!

Here is some of what I caught in Jan & Feb

I like a Dobyns Champion 805 Flip/Punch Rod, 25lb Fluoro or 65lbs Braid, High Speed 200 size Reel, I like straight shank flipping hooks with Tungsten Flipping Weights, 1oz usually, Favorite Baits Evolve Kompak Craw, Big Show Craw, Sweet Beavers and baits like that

Thanks to those that submitted survey, keep them coming, you can pick up to 5, so you can submit less then 5 picks as well.

Initial Results here – http://bassinblog.richlindgren.com/2013/01/23/picking-best-colors-for-bass-jigs.aspx

I like a 734 Dobyns Coalition with with 7.1:1 baitcasting reel, 17lb Fluoro or 30-40lb braid

Perfect, thanks!

I drove by that monster coming up Lake Pepin for weigh-in around 2:40pm on Saturday (Maiden Rock area)

Had similar issue with a LMS 522 right before it died

My favorite of the day – “If Rodgers had Allstate instead of State Farm, he’d be protected from mayhem like that”

Love my Droid

This week, makes Colts game even more frustrating

Oh well, signs of optimism and if they can roll that effort and play out consistently, could be a decent season….

Agreed, I do not give up on bass until last Sunday in February!

Just one less reason to not be fishing on a nice Sunday in the fall

90% + I throw a Black Blue frog
