For me, when I'm in the rodeo mood (trying to hang on for 8 seconds) I put in Chris and just LeDoux it!!

It's kinda funny how fishing is fishing, no matter where you are. I use the same technique to chum in Catfish and Stripers here in Virginia.

Cagrove, Do use actually use the same chum mix with cats in freshwater?
The reason why is.. I just recently ordered a drip system and enough menhadden milk and oil to last me a good long time(thanks again putershark) and I was curious how it was working for you in freshwater?

LittleCasino,
You bet!! If I'm in relatively shallow water (10' ft or less) I hang it from the boat. Any deeper and I sink it off the stern down to about 2 ft off the bottom. Give it about 10 minutes and the action gets crazy. Works great for Stripers too!!! Let me know how you make out.

You have to be careful with the David Allen Coe in mixed company (i.e. Catfish and Largemouth). Other than that that's a pretty thorough list!!

Sounds alot like the Outlaw Country channel on Sirius 63 which gets aired a bunch aboard the Little Casino, and the fish like it too!


Thanks Cagrove, I will let you know!

 

[ILLOGICAL GGC]

it would take 2 weeks for sirius to go through that playlist!!!!!LOL XM channel 12 would have 'em covered in about 6 hours. definately adult country channel ---sorry 'bout the coe he plays for the full grown stripers out of oregon inlet! ---old habits are hard to break!

Wow, the Thread that never dies!

Here's a few things I've learned.
1) still up in the air if Black Boxes are worth having
2) CHUM works almost always
3) Children shouldn't listen to XM channel 12
4) Fish prefer XM Channel 12
5) Polyethelyne produces static electricity
6) If the static electricity is discharged into the water.....our boats ARE Black Boxes

Your continued input is needed.

Here's a good site about current on the boat and testing "natural" flow, current leaks and if your boat is a "fish magnet".

Dolphin and King love heavy metal! When fishing off NC my radio is on 105.5 WXQR. It used to be called the animal when I was growing up in Jacksonville but it is called something else now. But, they still play the heaviest rock around. Tool, Disturbed, Ozzy, Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave, etc. is always blasting on my boat and I haven't been skunked yet!

7) square dance on the bow in leather shoes will bring em up from 100 fathoms

I just read an article about the pulse of a depth sounder working....kinda like the bass of music maybe. Then some say the sounder will run other fish off like tarpon. I always rely on "Special Kitty" to get the job done with JB and cold refreshments. Works every time!

I never noticed any additional corrosion from the black box electrical current. It is measured in milli amps so I don't think it would be a problem.
