  4. How will this impact your fishing Stan?
  5. I for one completly disagree with that opinion on the benefits of copper. Just my opinion

  11. Nice goin' Grey, you take me there and all I get is a bunch of county park geese You guys look like diver duck hero's BTW, did u slip and fall or is that from the Crown Royal
  12. In my professional opinion it nothing more than a band of traveling "gypsy's". I've seen this before, they appear to be down on their luck, poorly dressed, bad haircuts (or no hair) wandering aimlessly around a large store mumbling to themselves. Don't let the one with the stick fool you, he is probably the "king gypsy" of this clan, and if security came he would run like a deer! BTW, they always have the family with them, its just a cover Consider this a public service announcement
  13. overhand knot. Then a large snap on the loop. easy on easy off any attractor.
  14. They are a nice rod for the price
  15. Legacy are you using the black or the older brown heartland rods. I have been using the brown rods for 10 years with no complaints I added twillie tips as well. Sorry I can't comment on the other rods mentioned [ Post made via Mobile Device ] [ Post made via Mobile Device ]
  16. Clarke, I'm missing something I think. You feel that a line twist problem is effecting the copper knot 400' from the flasher/lure? Why/how could that happen with the proper BB swivels at the lure. I think if that was the case the leader should show line twist problems long before the copper would be effected by it? I would think covering the spro connection with shrink tubing would eliminate the movement between the soft copper against a hard rigid spro swivel which could be the cause of the failure. (or not). But a soft line (copper) against a soft line (mono/PP) w/albright knot would be more forgiving on the connection. IMO. Good for discussion I think. It is January.
  17. Maybe my connections are a little unconventional, but I have had only one connection failure on 8 copper rods I run in a number of years. I run a 10' length of 30#mono (ande) between the copper and the backing (PP). It serves as a place to clip a release or a inline board for a better grip. then I use an albright knot at both the copper connection as well as the PP backing connection. It may not be true, but i feel an albright knot tied with mono improves the strength of the knot. It does add another point of failure but I have had good success with not having knot failures. Using a spro is fine i guess, I just choose not to do it that way.
  18. You have that right Mayor John. Can't wait. Give my regards to the first lady, Lucille.
  19. Comical, thats an understatement I will withhold further comment
  20. You would jump in after me if I was hangin on to the beer cooler I bet
  21. Thanks for the info Bob, I always try to be safe when ice fishing. Here in NJ your safest approach is to wear your seatbelt on the way, and be sure not to forget your price plus card
  22. Shirt arrived, thanks Tom The blue glo hammer looks good.
