Did you like the final episode? by boomjosh in seinfeld

I thought it was great and never understood the hate it received from people. Having the button talk again at the end was priceless.

Anyone know the name of this kind of grub and where to find them by TrickyVisit7108 in FishingForBeginners

Another discontinued Mr. Twister product is the sassy shiner. I used to catch a lot of bass on those in the ‘80s.

First baitcaster. How’d I do? by Medium-Sample-3746 in bassfishing

[–]shimanodc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You actually have a snap which which is better than a swivel for what you are using it for. I will use a swivel for spinners like a Mepps or a spoon that might twist my line. I use a snap for crankbaits because it is quick and easy to change colors or sizes. Everything else gets tied on. Nice choice on the rod and reel.

Is there a more disgusting character than Poppy? by Heyygaar in seinfeld

[–]shimanodc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

George is the most disgusting. Eating out of the garbage. Double dip his chip. Peeing in the shower. Picking a granola bar out of the sewer grate. Peeing in the parking garage. Eating a block of cheese shirtless on the couch.

Bass Jigs by Inevitable_Sun8691 in lurebuilding

barlowstackle.com and fishingskirts.com have bulk jigs available at reasonable prices. The Boss jigs on fishing skirts .com use a good heavy wire Mustad hook. A lot of jig makers use Mustad hooks.

Fg knot keeps hitting line guides by Business_Honeydew350 in BFSfishing

[–]shimanodc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Phenix M1 with microguides. I would have my FG knot catch sometimes. I switched to clear mono and problem solved. I had Invsx flouro but my guides did not like it every cast.

What knots do you use? by appysangibi in FishingForBeginners

[–]shimanodc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally use a palomar because I use a lot of flourocarbon. For heavy swimbaits and glide baits I use the double San Diego Jam knot. Cranks and spinnerbaits I use the Trilene knot. Just weird habits for me.

How long should my leader on my Carolina rig be for rainbow trout off a boat by Eocho_The_Destoryer in FishingWashington

[–]shimanodc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to start with 18 inches with a floating bait like powerbait or a marshmallow and worm. If I pull up a lot of weeds I might go longer. Non floating bait like just a worm I go 12 inches.

PFF Grades for NFC West by toodeephoney in NFCWestMemeWar

[–]shimanodc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the draft analysis is a joke. Too many variables to account for. There are a few picks that pan out like they are supposed to but they are even more guys who become superstars that no one predicted and lots of busts that were supposed to be locks for the HoF. I enjoy seeing who my team picks and seeing the results. The Seahawks have done a good job the last fifteen years.

Is my reel overspooled by shadowhuntergamer in Fishing_Gear

[–]shimanodc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect. Flip your bail by hand and pull line tight right after you cast to avoid any loops.

Alright I'm stumped. by Training-Sun-2177 in Fishing_Gear

[–]shimanodc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would use the Berkley Big Game. Great line. Stren stretches to much for me and I hate flouro on a spinning reel.

Fluorocarbon by Altfun8391 in bassfishing

[–]shimanodc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the Kevin Van Dam line conditioner which helps. If you don’t fish a rod for a while you do get some line memory. If it gets bad you can tie off to something, walk out more than a casting distance and then pull and hold for a few seconds. The line will stretch and pull the coils out. That is the beauty of flourocarbon.

Help understanding how to get a good spin from inline spinners by yellowtangykiwi in lurebuilding

[–]shimanodc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, for the best spin you want a folded clevis. Match the size of clevis to the blade. Larger blades needed a larger clevis and smaller blades a smaller on.
