  1. What's up everyone moving to Palm bay fl on Saturday was wondering if anyone is around that area and wants to give me any pointers on the area (not asking for honey holes or secret spots). Or if anyone around the area wants to fish let me know. TIA

    Like most of you, I can't stay focused on a project so in addition to the rat wakes I am dialing in I am giving a shad profile a shot. 

    I started our with some 1.75 square basswood and cut the profile for 2 of them at once. I am trying a single piece and jointed design with everything else pretty close to the same.

    So far I have only tested the single piece. It didn't swim like I hoped. At really slow speed it will wake and the tail will kick like I want but at a more realistic speed it looses the tail action and just rolls back and forth. It seems like I got the bib pretty square because cranking it down will go straight and kick out to either side. But mostly it just goes straight with some body roll. I am going to try and move the tow point to see what that does. I don't think it will give me what I want but figured it would be good to see what that does before anything else. Once I see what that's like I am going to shorten the bib to see what that does.  I think it actually needs to be wider to get the ass end to kick around more though. 

     I am planning on testing the jointed version tomorrow. I put lead in the single piece already but I am going to wait on this one to see if it will work without it. I am sure I will end up putting some amount.

    I have an Okuma Xpress Nomad travel rod and I love it! It’s a true fast action but it handles baits well and has decent sensitivity. It also comes with a travel case! You can get it in a 1-4oz or 2-8oz I believe. 

    Bought one years ago well traveled and has held up fer sure!

  6. Just moved to chesapeake va from califorina and guess what getting stationed in fort macon NC in July next year... sucks but it is what is. That being said if any one down there wants to fish or can point me in the right direction for some fish that be sweet. Just finally started to figure this area out and now moving to a whole new place.

    Thanks SU
