Would’nt use a router as a way to “mill” the table surface .Have an unheated garage workshop & rust is a problem.I use a sanding disc w/ scotchbrite pads instead of paper.They do not “cut” the metal & just scrub surface rust off.Been doing it for years & no problem w/ keeping tool surfaces true.I use them dry & then coat the cast table surfaces w/ pastewax to protect the raw metal between uses.Found it to be better than coating w/ oil or silicone spray .Best regards

Jigs are one of the most efficient fish lures on the market and there are a number of ways and means to fish them. Jigs come in many sizes from miniscule up to mighty weighing in at a pound or more for halibut. But for crappie, I prefer to use 1/8 ounce, 1/16, or even 1/32 ounce as well. (Sometimes smaller works best.) If you are using the type which come already skirted with feather or fur, you can bounce them along the bottom, troll them through the water at what ever depths you can to find the level at which the fish are suspending, or you can suspend the jig itself under a float or bobber. The bouncing of the float on the surface dances the jig in a realistic swimming motion that crappie have a hard time resisting. In fact, a lot of fishermen refer to the BEST water surface for this method as having a “crappie chop”. That’s when the water has rapid motion in the form of 4 to 6 inch choppy waves. PERFECT! Some jigs come with rubber or vinyl skirts which can be good also. Still other fishermen, myself included, prefer to tip the head and hook with a more natural offering such as a segment from a worm or a small (crappie sized) minnow. (That doesn’t mean a minnow the size of a crappie, but rather a small, one to three inch minnow that crappie seem to prefer.) Fishing from the pier, just work the lure or bait around, out from and as close to, the pier as you can. If the crappies are there, you will find them, and by varying the method of fishing the jig, you will quickly discover what triggers them to bite most. Using the live baits of worm and minnow, color won’t be a question, but using the fur, feather, or synthetic skirts could require knowing which color they want at the moment. I prefer white, but sometimes the fish want a black head with a chartreuse tail or vice versa. There are a LOT of color options and sometimes it is time consuming to eliminate the ones that don’t work. That’s another reason why I prefer to stick with the naturals….minnows and ‘crawlers tipping the hook of a Gitzit brand jig head. It works. What more can I say? Good luck and good fishin’…….

Careful, I followed Mikes advice and I cast so far My jig hit the back of my head.
January 6th, 2011 at 6:28 pm
Go with the St. Croixs. They’re probably the better quality of the two brands, and using those you won’t look like such an idiot as you would using a bright orange rod…
January 7th, 2011 at 6:48 am
There is the is a way to do it and catch baitfish. Use a cork (float, bobber, whatever you like to call it) about two feet above the rig and a large enough weight to cast the rig, but not large enough to sink the cork. When you cast the rig into the bait, the cork will scare them away for a second. Let the rig float for a minute without moving it at all. That give the bait time to settle down. Twitch the rig only slightly, just enough to get their attention, and leave it still. Usually when one fish bites the rig the others will start to fight over it. You should be able to catch bait like that.You can also try casting the rig with the smallest weight possible, without the cork. Just use it the same way you would use a regular jig.

ABU Garcia 6500 works fine for me but you will need more rod for the stripers than with spanish and blues.
January 8th, 2011 at 6:40 am
Nope. That combo will not cast something that size very well. I’ve tried it already. However, there’s another rod from Wal-Mart that will cast something this light. The model is Shakespeare Micro Graphite one piece 4’6″ spinning rod. The rod could be a little hard to find but you will see them on the rack from time to time. The current prices on those rods around my area are $14.95 and $16.95 depending on the store.You will need to pay attention when you buy the rod though. I found 3 of them on the rack 4 days ago. All 3 got different stiffness and not all of them will bend in a nice curve. The stiffer ones should be very nice on trout. The limper ones will be more suitable for bluegills and crappie. I got myself a stiffer one and I got small bluegills dropping lures on me. (Don’t think I will have lure dropping problems if I used 1.5″ grubs though. LOL) Don’t use those rods on carp though. Those rods don’t have enough backbone to turn the fish. I hooked up with a carp around 10 pounds 3 days ago and I almost got spooled because I couldn’t turn it at all. So far, this is the first untra-light rod I got from Wal-Mart that couldn’t turn a carp. But there are VERY few rods that will cast lures this size nicely.By the way, I used this for my light lure casting test. http://www.troutmagnet.com/store/chartreuse-trout-magnet-8-piece-pack-p-65.htmlAlso, I was using 2lb test Berkley SensiThin on a tiny reel that holds 185 yards of 2lb test line. Tiny reels will align better with line guides on smaller rods and give you better casting distance. They will also balance better on those tiny rods.

I like using #8 lb or #10 lb…Berkely Tri Line XT or XL for both panfish and gamefishYou also might use a small lod and reel with #4 lb or #6 lb line for panfish.Good Luck Fishing.

The correct answer is NOThe correct reason has to do with what some of the posters have already mentioned, and that is typically, with a spinning rod there isn’t as many guides and they are the wrong size.I will go further and explain how and why that affects the rod.first the SIZE of the guides on a spinner are large because of the way the line comes off a spinning reelLess guides are needed because the guides are pointing DOWN. you could get away with one guide and a tip if you had to.The reason for many more guides on a conventional reel is that they are needed to prevent the line from rubbing on the rod while under load, because this type of rod is fished with the guides facing UPSo…if you fish a baitcaster with a spinning rod, you are for all practical purposes, fishing with your rod up-side downPeople will point and laugh, which is not what I want them to do, I want them to say “hey, that guy is set up right and is catching fish, he must have been reading yahoo answers and was given correct information”Seriously, even if you have a passing interest in fishing, don’t do it, if for nothing else, because I have seen people loose nice fish for this exact reason, and I’m sure you don’t want to do that

Bach’s life situation compelled him to work fiendishly hard simply in order to provide for a vast family. His dedication and passion for his religion made the concept of shoddy, ‘good-enough’ work absolutely foreign to him. There is evidence that he was highly intelligent, and no doubt that he was very well trained and immensely talented.His skill as a harmonist is paramount, and, even in the so-called 20th Century practice of ‘polytonality’, he beat Stravinsky and Poulenc to it by 200 years! (last pages of his Passacaglia are certainly in more than one key at a time!)His skill as a polyphonist is perhaps shared by the likes of Tallis, Vittoria, Monteverdi. I feel Stravinsky was his equal, as well. However, during the era of ‘diatonic harmony’, there is no polyphonic composer to come close to him, I feel. Coupled with the man’s vivid harmony, this ability to write several competing melodies, all to be heard at once, is a magnificent aid toward the creation of powerfully expressive music.Melodically, I feel Bach is sometimes a little unnecessarily longwinded. [ He certainly mastered 'profundity', but some of his 'profound' melodies are awfully long!]Rhythmically, on occasion, Bach proved as capable of providing excitement as anyone who ever lived. Someone such as Bartok did it all of the time, though.During his lifetime, Bach was scarcely a ‘public figure’. As the acknowledged leader of his huge ‘family business’ (I believe that there were as many as 64 Bachs as professional composers during his lifetime), it is easy to see how very important the man was to the growth of European music, however little he was known to the public….The debt music owes to this one man is incalculable. Although the general public were largely ignorant of him until he was popularised by Mendelssohn, he was ‘the King of Music’ to composers such as Beethoven.In no other Art has a single person contributed so much, in my opinion. Privately, I have always thought of him as Saint Johann.

I got a 12 ft crappie whuppin’ stick and use it as a canepole now. It’s pretty heavy… Well maybe it’s not so heavy as it is cumbersome to hold onto and cast all day.A 9′ might be fine.But it is pretty sensitive.If you know your gonna be catchin’ crappie, and not turtle or 7 lb tilapia. I prefer the 8′”Slabseeker”… Very light, very strong, super sensitive and can really get the line out there.
January 10th, 2011 at 6:25 pm
I use 4 pound on one rod and 6 pound on another. Both are Maxima monofilament lines.The rod I use the 4 pound on I used to have 2 pound Maxima on it. It’s nothing special, just a 2-piece 8 1/2 foot Eagle Claw 5/6 weight fly rod matched to a small Shakespeare triggerspin reel. I could easily toss a 1/32 ounce crappie jig a country mile with it. A casting bubble filled half way with water helped with distance. I’ve also used it for bass, using live shad for bait. There’s nothing like fighting and landing bass 2 and 3 times the weight of your line. But I’ve since gone to 4 pound.I dunno why, but I try to stay away from curly tail grubs. I prefer crappie and marabou jigs. Dry and wet flies too. What I like to do is a form of the “Float-’N-Fly” technique. I take my main line and clip off 4 or 5 feet of it and sit it aside. I run a casting bubble onto my line and tie on a barrel swivel just big enough to keep the float from sliding over it. Then I tie the main line leader material to the other end of the swivel and then tie on my crappie jig or wet fly.With my crappie jigs, I like a sliver of Chamois about an inch or 1 1/2″ long. It drives bluegill, redears, and crappie nuts. Not to mention the sliver lasts a long time.

Get some chicken livers and leave them out overnight to dry out a bit and get a little stinky. use as much weight as you need to keep it on the bottom . cast it out in the deepest channel then sit back with a beer and wait for them to find italways works for me

jigs ‘n’ worms.
January 12th, 2011 at 6:31 am
Use a float with a sliding system. One that you can adjust the depth of the lure. Fish it like the “float n fly” method popular for smallmouth bass. Use one of the floats that you weight with water for casting weight. Your jig will slip down to the desired depth which can be adjusted to as much as 20 feet if you wish. Or more.Bobber stops are sold for this or you can just tie a large knot with a separate piece of line to slide to the desired position.

I find that doing things like what you say leads to tangles and lost fish, but it can work. I use spoons and spinners. Sometimes spinners really catch the attention of pike and bass. I particularly like spinner jigs where I put a lead-head wriggler on the side of the spinner. Those seem to work pretty good in certain conditions. You may have to play with the size of the wriggler to get the lure to go where you want. I do a lot of bank fishing. Some days are way better than others.
