Hey Chigger,

I have to say it's good to run across someone who obviously was born with all that fishing knowledge. Can you imagine the nerve of PhilDance who just asked some simple questions about fishing a particular lake in order to try to learn more than he currently knows about it. You really showed him what you're made of! Phil, this isn't necessarily the very best way to find out Brookville, but it is a good start. - buy a copy of Fishing Hot Spots map of Brookville Lake for $9.95. You will learn all about the lake, have a very good, detailed map of the lake showing contours, stump beds, vegetation, timber. You will also get decent advice by going through the hot spot numbers on the map and matching them to the narrative on the other side of the map. You will learn about where good post spawn walleye flats are, suggestions about lures and presentations, not just for wallies but also crappie, striper, large and smallmouth etc. Plus, the map is pretty waterproof, and won't try to make you feel like a loser.

TrackerJon,

Can you teach me sometime about how magnets work?

If I can get some good magnets going on, I can get back all those Lucky Craft I keep losing down at Patoka.

Anyone who finds some Lucky Craft lures down at Patoka, I would appreciate it if you send them back to me.

Thanks,
chigger

Chigger,

I guess we could design an electro magnet you could drag through the trees and recover those costly babies. I recognize that you are a ton better fisherman than I am - you have the confidence in what you are doing to risk losing those Lucky Crafts. There are times when I know I should be casting an X-Rap through the timber and I just can't make myself do it, so I throw a TR worm instead which probably was the wrong lure. I wonder if we could do like golfers do with caddies; bring along a teenager and pay him to dive for lures when we hang 'em up. Pay him $10, 3 cokes, and a fruit pie.

I will pay to get my Lucky Craft lures back. I can remember where I lost every one, when the water drops, I will be on em.

I got another good idea too, that saves money. If you have access to a real good color laser printer at work, you can go on the St. Croix fishing rod website and copy one of their color emblems over to a bmp file. Then print out a few of them.

Then go to Gander Mountain and they have some Guide series rods on sale for $29.99 that look just like a $70 St.Croix. I can't tell em apart. Then clear coat the St.Croix emblem over the Guide emblem and wham! Everybody thinks you got the good stuff.

I have convinced a couple guys already that I am throwin a St.Croix, they don't know the difference.

By the way, Bass Pro sells a St. Croix Rods hat for $20 brand new, if anyone wants to contribute to the;
