    I'm buying one of these for my boat and taking a bucket full of rocks. I'm sure it will work great.

    Crappie bite twice a day. 15 minutes before I get there and 10 minutes after I leave.

    I keep 230 grain Gold Dots in my 1911, but since I'm not allowed to even possess it on the COE lakes I leave it at home. As far as etiquette to other trollers, I do my best not to go near anyone else. That's probably why I don't catch the amount that others do, but I'd rather just keep to myself. I have a hard enough time keeping my own lines from getting acquainted, I don't need other folks' lines getting tangled in mine too. The fishermen that tick me off more than anything are some of the bass fishermen. I never realized how flat-out rude they can be. Some guys will blast right across your bow going 40 and not think a thing of it. What must etiquette be like in a bass tournament? Now before anybody gets mad at me notice that I didn't say ALL bass fishermen. It's the selfish ones that stand out in a crowd.

    Now the jet skiers and ski boat jerks are another matter. Here again not all are that way but on a Saturday afternoon you're likely to get a good dose of the bad ones. I think alcohol and a little too much testosterone come into play there. Some guys get a couple of pretty girls on a boat, add alcohol, and they feel the need to try to impress the young ladies. That's the main reason I don't go near the lake on Saturday afternoons, which is bad for me because I miss some times when the weather is just right for catching fish, or just being on the water.

    Had a fellow pulling cranks troll from way behind me, pulling beside two boat lengths to my side, pulls in front of me and moves on. I know his cranks were under my boat cause i could see em on the df. I slowed down a little but he never gave an inch. Very frustrated at them with a whole darn lake to troll up from behind me to beside me then right in front me. Arrgggghhh

    Just doesnt make sense, had an older gentleman in front of me. He was pushing some jigs running from shallow to deep and I was paralelling the contour lines, as I approached him I just turned behind him and kept going. Could have gone in from of him but it would have been close so I went behind, no need to be ass-a-nine!!!
    When MO and I were at Enid the other day I werent paying attention and ran up on some fellows, they speeded up and got their lines out of our way. Werent there fault it was mine, I waved and appologised and they waved back and said no prob. Things happen from time to time but most of this crap is uncalled for.
