Ran a treble hook through my hand last night. Right through the skin above the knuckle. Buried that son of a bitch.
Had to push the sob through the other side and clip it off with a side cutters. Brand new lure, had caught 3 northerns off it right off the bat. Finger is a little sore today. I wouldn't recommend doing that. ****ing pike. |

I can't believe that I haven't done that before while lipping a largemouth. I'm always kind of scared of it because they will start flopping right when you least expect it.

Took a little while to get the balls to push it through, but by then it was pretty numb. I pushed it through and was able to clip it into pieces and finally pull it through. Won't be doing that again. |

Is the Makers Mark a requirement to pull this off?

Yup, done the same thing myself. Works like a charm too, hook pops right out.

Turtles were out in force last night, got tired of feeding them so I left. Out this early in the season they're probably going to be as thick as the ticks already are.

Its so bad at my local lake, they're basically trained to show up anytime they see people, they putter around in circles with their heads out of the water maybe 20-25 yards from you & as soon as the bait hits the water they go under, a few seconds later its bye-bye bait. |

Just got back from a 2 day trip down to Truman with my dad.
Yesterday was brutal. The local reports said to hit coves and pockets with spinnerbaits and crankbaits, but we only ended up with 8 fish that might've weighed 4 pounds. Today was much better. We went back to our wheelhouse, broke out the t-rigged worms, and ended up with 34 on the day, including a couple of 3 pounders, one four pounder, one five and a 3 pound Kentucky that fought like a 7 pound largemouth. |

I love turtles and reptiles in general. I also don't fish with anything they would be attracted to so I have never had any problems some of you are speaking of, and actually until now have never even heard of these types of issues with turtles.
