Re: Scents on Hard Plastic Swimbaits???

I use scents on my soft plastic swimbaits. But does anyone here use scents on their hard plastic (BBZ-1, Kong, ect) swimbaits?? If yes, WHY and WHAT? If no, Why NOT???? For my soft plastics I rub Megastrike on the bait the night before and give it a spritz or two of CB's Hawg Sauce (http://www.cbsh...

When not in my boat or in my hand on the shore, they are in the passenger's side of my F150 extended cab truck. I've ha...

Fine looking rig young man! My only complaint would be the over sized guides and the reel's on the wrong side of the rod.... ;)

Re: MB Bearing Down review...

Yes, I bought that rod from Cal :D . Didn't know it was going to be reviewed. Also, I learned something from that very fine review: http://www.tackletour.com/images2/picmbf566x10.jpg The script is so faint, I'd never noticed it before I saw that image. Thank you Cal for the education. ;) I can't add...
