Poll for today...(and trivia answer)

Trivia answer for the last question....Potatoes. It is now legal to take potatoes into Canada. It hasn't been for a while. Anyone ever not eaten a potato up there in the last 10 years?

Today's poll: Are you putting anything new in your tackle box this year?

Also - I will be doing Boat Spotlights this year starting Friday, June 3rd (6 weeks left). I didn't do a very good job with the after trip reports for the Angler Spotlights so I am just doing boats this year. I will be doing one a week and have conducted a personal random drawing to determine the order in which they will be done. (Which really means that I am doing them in the order that I see fit.) It is also customary that a boat be given a name and I have also assigned them below. The order is below...

Bob/Trent - S.S. Camp Director June 3rd
Troy/Andy - S.S. Eye to Eye June 10th
Bernie/Aaron - S.S. Almost Heaven June 17th
Larry/Cody - S.S. Boy Was He Pissed June 24th
Theron/Connor - S.S. Teach a kid to fish July 1st
Steve/Ryan - S.S. Gin is Toxic July 8th

So there you have it. I am looking forward to writing them as much as you are looking forward to reading them.

  1. I have two new hard baits going with me this year. Sometimes I think the Tail Dancers and Husky Jerks get lonely. BPS XPS Nitro Dancer and Reef Runner 500 Series. I am taking some different plastics up too but that is kind of boring.

  2. I got a couple smithwick lures- one of which I gave to Connor. We can stop on the way home and you guys can all stock up on them after you see how good they are. Also some Yum twister tales and some coustom painted jig heads. I can leave some of this stuff home if you guys are getting a little nervous about keeping up. I think my boat cooler is making about its 20th trip this year and my fishermans pliers about 25. Everything else has been replaced or displaced over the years. How about you, Texas Bob. What relics are you still taking from years past?

  3. P.S.: Sorry, I can't reveal any more info on the new Smithwick lures at this time. Gotta keep a little edge over you guys.

  5. I have a couple of red and white erie dearies still in their packages that I bought in 2002. I'll auction them off to Dillon on Wednesday.

  6. Theron and I did discuss the appropriate number of pliers to bring on this trip. I always thought the number was 1 but 2006 changed all that.
