Our bigger fish (hybrid, white, striped, largemouth) bass are at 20-40 feet the hybrid & striped on occasion to 60. This drops 2ft/sec. so you can do your counts. Add more wire length for toothier fish or heavier sinker for more depth, bigger willow if you want more flash. First cast with the...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCIjkHzEEgU Hard to believe it has been 11 years since we made this for the new buyer and now friend Dave in Iowa. There was one stipulation to the deal - we had to bring it and go boating with him - show him how to get the most out of it. We started out from...

If you make one of these, use an appropriate leader especially for toothy fish. I used 6 feet wire or cable (usually wire - worked better for me) to this lure. EZ to make - good luck with getting a big one! https://youtu.be/JyWyuVrRCUE

https://youtu.be/SaqvRz3vuCA 1. Old El Paso Tortillas in appropriate size. I'm using a Cuisinart TOA-60 that takes up to 14" (Large) These do make a difference, the higher fat content makes them air fry crisp when just browned. 2. Air fry in your basket - middle rack - 425º -Air Fry - 6 minutes...

When we first lived in Hernando Beach (early 60's) the boat ramp was next to the house and we had a Ford 8N with a ball on the front - sure made it handy. By 1970 they'd bulldozed the ramp and sold the lot - the current public ramp was too far away so that ended. A few tractors of the past...

I'll admit I was pretty clueless on this until my brother in law educated me on this stuff (whatever it is). I would unwrap sometimes - sometimes not. Since looking into his claims, I'm fanatical about it now - I de-skin all commercial stuff (natural casings are rarer and rarer). The local...

https://youtu.be/rRoyYnkf8V4 Hope you are enjoying the CD life! We sure love it here in Alabama, the lake (800+ miles shoreline + Chattahoochee River system) is plenty big, but the downside is the creek here has a bridge even a CDory can't get under. Oh well. I sure had my share of...

Connie was really dejected losing this fish, but it all worked out in the end. Luckily we had both encounters on the security camera (hers in early morning is B/W): https://youtu.be/vO50cwtkFUs

A simple story from long ago, and far away. At that time I had intended to develop a recipe if the occasion of getting a wild hog happened, but as things went - never did get that far - and no, I never went back. Fishing is the life for me. https://youtu.be/hNt81cS--Pk

Tie 2 stop ties on top, then small bead & large bead, bobber appropriate for weight, bait stop, hook, weight. Set stop ties to fish the depth you want hook to run - only limit is spool capacity. Daytona Rig: https://youtu.be/eCruAntyeW4

A blast from the past: adjustable slip rig (Texas, Carolina, and more). https://youtu.be/Qk3Sg4_Yaks Came from desperation in my short (extremely) guiding career of having to change plastics or bait or entire rigs for myself and customers in gatling gun quickness. There must be a better way...

Not much to do so I've been fixing/repairing reels. Will be fishing with Grandad's '56 later this morning. Made another video as I go along of 33 issues and repairs. Hope all is well in your world (literally)! Easy Fixes through gear removal: https://youtu.be/ru122KcdLsE Covers clutch...

Corned Beef has been around over 3000 years, time for a different approach: Slit your corned beef through, insert: red hot (I used a big mama in the vid), beef sausage, any kind of sausage, pepperoni - even a potato can be used. No added spices needed with a spicy sausage (red hot, etc) - put...

Mellita's was the old Cuban Restaurant on 36th Street Miami (I used to do the runs after engine changes on L10ll's DC10's etc. etc. for Eastern) and this was their specialty: sweet black bean soup and a Cuban sandwich (which would be in stacks to the ceiling (I have their recipe for those too)...

5 beef hot dogs (I use Nathan's - not a sin to use more) - sliced thick 1/2" (slice thin & they float and burn) 1/2 large onion chopped 3/4 cup cane syrup (cane juice should be the only ingredient - all others are cut with corn syrup, water, etc. and will crystalize) 2 28 oz cans Bush's "Country...
