I would be honored to be on your friends list. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I’m sure between me and the rest of the BBG site we will come up with some kind of answer or if you just want to chat that’s fine also. THANK YOU much Dick Tabbert

I don't see are taste a difference in flavor or texture. I was out this morning for about 3 hours. I caught 11, only 2 red ears. They say rain tonight so my ice fishing is about done for this year. I'm hoping to get out tomorrow

oh yea i had lots of luck last friday.when it was like 60 degrees out but now its back in the teens i hate IL, weather any way the idea it to get them to chase it them pause and let it float up with this bait as it asends it will kind of sway back and forth just a littel but just enough to make them hit and they were hittimng it hard last week ill give it a try again once it warms up some more hpoe it work as well for you

Man, the weather was lousy today, wasn't it? Keep me informed if another opportunity comes up to either get some bluegill, or meet with the landowner and you guys to discuss his really unique fishery.

Take care,

Bruce
