I'll show ya somthing when I start workin and can afford some pc toys. I just got the basics

..."Best Buy"- Sales paper......has a "cam".....not camera, for Free!!!

...after sending in two "mail-in" rebates....it ends up being free. So Goose, you could video your stuff, and transfer it to US!!:D

I'm pretty happy with the camera I ended up getting...its the only one that "states" to be "splash proof"....I've checked out the gasket areas, and it does seem decent!!.....The resolution is adequate....2.1 I tink...:D


...the price was decent....its the DC5000 made by Kodak. If you go to the Kodak Website, and punch in that model, they walk you through the operations of the camera.....ITS REALLY KOOL!!!...

....Unfortunately, its been discontinued.....(I can't figure out why!!)...I had to get mine from....(Thanks to JohnR :D).....Cnet.com...

....Good Luck!!....Goose....

Goose I did some searching on another site....and happened to find this....

....do you recognize this dude???....:rolleyes: :confused:

http://striped-bass.com/images/bloo/teamlooney2.gif

No, it is like chat. I think that this thread has the potential to go on for the whole year.

Hello Spec.....

it won't be long now one month:happy:
the boat goes in around the 1 of April yeehaaa:D

I will have to get you out on the boat and show you where I get my Herring ;) :D

Or maybe a Flounder fling :laughs:

I read the change 3 a day sounds fair.

3 fat ones could be a meal.

We are the Flounder capital of the world right ?:laughs: :laughs:

You got that right, at least I still hope we are. I am getting antsy. I gotta get alist together of things I need to get.

I have cleaned and lubed all my reels, now I gotta respool them.
Organize my tackle, etc.

.

april....... 1 aftah anatha. till ya arms puke..................

whys he so far away ???.....is he working that drop thats 15' in front of him??....


...I think I'd walk out further and maybe work it....horizontally...:D:confused: :happy:

...then again, I can't fish!!

...and I thought John was a bit younger than that...!!!:smash: :laughs:

Lets get a schoolie thingy together, we ain't got much longer.

I think I'd be "here" instead......

....since your the "Master".....whats your opinion on this ???...:happy:

Bloo looks like an Angel is watchin over him:angel:

Specialist...schoolie thing sounds good!!.......I'm into anything....:smash:

well that involves fishin....;)


...Ok, Blonde joke time......


.....Whats the favored mating call of a Blonde???...


.."I'm really drunk!!!"......;)


....Whats the other mating call of a Blonde???.....:D


..."Didn't you hear me???....I said, I'm Really Drunk!!!".....

:happy: :laughs:

:laughs:

WHat do you guys think about the different braids, co-polymer lines etc?

..I havent' done much reading up on them.....I'll be in a tackle shop this week, looking for line.....I need some Braid for the weekend Cod. So I may check that out too......

...did you purchase some, or thinking about it???....

Thinking about it. I have some 30lb Whiplash for my baitrunners when I jig with them in the canal. I wanted to try some on a lighter tackle rod for some schoolies.

I was thinking Spiderwire saltwater fusion. The 30lb is a 10lb mono diameter. I could get a bout 200 yds on this reel I have.

I was also thinking of trying the Yo-Zuri Hybrid. It's flourocarbon and nylon mix. It's supposed to be very sensitve as well.

Boy I love having ADSL.

Yes, I've heard good thing about that Yo-zuri. Gonna put 12 on a 6500

I think I will give it a try also.

I tried that SpiderWire....and I don't know.....but I felt it was a bit "wirey"...

...I had it on a small reel, maybe the test was too strong...I can't rememer now....My nephew kind of "inherited" that rod...took him scuppin ... and he loved it!!!....I kept telling him he was using a "Lucky" rod......

...well, I'm sure you can figure out the rest.....How do you say NO, to a 6 year old???....:D

SpiderWire is a "copolymer" line???......:smash:

..Gee, I feel stupik!....I'm gonna have to start reading the fine print....:rolleyes:

...I'm always in rush!!!.....ya know.....tic toc.....tic toc.....:D

Bloo no need to rush unfortunately we have plenty of time.:rolleyes:

Spider wire is a braid you may be thinking about Fusion. Bloo you have all the teasers you need and go with a braided line. My cod rod is a heavy action 7' Penn Slammer with a 4/0 senater and 50# braid. I think you will need at least 20 ozs. on your jigs unless the water is shallower than 150' Mono has to much stretch for jigging but fine for bait fishing.

wrong Bloo.. the water there comes right at You and its 15 feet straight down. the Bass come over the top like logs.
It was just about slack. no pics o fish to busy bailing..
I guide there and have to keep it quiet.

:eek: tell me it only LOOKS like that reel is in the sand??!!!

"tsk" "tsk"!

No Jenn:rolleyes: :smash: :p That was an awsome night I started friday and quit saturday around 8 or 9 am.
From the time I started till the time I left It was Bass after Bass. Note that plug, It was new. here it is at the end of the trip:laughs:
I had eel to and blew through them on Bass. They slayed needles that night also.....

This was the size on eels for the most part.......

WOW

actually.. I got larger Bass , But was trying to get a small fish to take home.....

My internet hero!

:)

Ps. also tell him that big bad striper won't hurt you anymore;)

4 days to go..........ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......


......Cod!!!!..........

hey that awesome!!!.......you draw that yourself???.....

wish i did no I'm not that good...

yeeeehaa 4 days
right now the weatherman says wind sat night BUT i think it's to soon to tell

I hear ya.......they're almost close sometimes....:D

.....I'll say my prayers.....

.....I'm pouring a pipejig tonight......had someone make me a tube out of stainless steel....but I think its tooo long.....gonna head down to the basement in a few, and toy with it......:rolleyes:

Bloo where do you get your lead ?

I have the molds but no more lead:(

..here and there....:D


....there and here......:D

....sometimes, you can get lucky....and know someone at a tire place...and they sometimes are willing to part with the tire-lead weights.....like a 5 gallon bucket full!!!!.....;)

..and then sometimes you know someone who works at a Lumber yard of sorts, that deal with flashing...for roofs, and they fork over the scraps....or even a FULL roll or two....:D

....and then theres the 78 year old plumber, who gives you the stinkiest melting lead around....

...and then theres......:D, well, you get the picture....although it is getting more and more scarce.....:rolleyes: :confused: :(

My brother in law is a roofer i think i will call him:D

GOT LEAD :laughs: :laughs:

you mean.........NEED LEAD!!! :happy:

I know a while back, there was someone willing to give away some lead....

...at a high cost though...:(

.....I think he said, for every 5 jigs you molded, he wanted 2!!....

....those odds are too high for me....not that its a lot of work......but!!.....If I can find lead myself....(which I usually do eventually:)).....that equals...5 jigs molded......5 jigs kept!!!...:D

...I'm sure if I was in Dire Straits....maybe, just maybe.....I'd agree to 1 out of every five.....;)

Ok....a little picture trivia......:D

whats this??......:)

a starfish's bum

thats the before picture.......


...this is the "after" picture.....:D


.....I'm sure you can figure it out now.....;)

whatever it was, it is sure flat now

the "before "pic reminded me of that thingy that they make you stare at when you are getting fitted for contact lenses......

The before pic is a hook before it's sharpen'd then after pic....I guess

Both pictures are looking with a Striper's Eye.......

....the first picture, he's chasing down a squid......and he's gaining on him....!!!.......;):D


The second picture, is the squid....doing its "Skunk" maneuver....and squirting em'......:D:D:laughs: :laughs:


....Think...of the "Fish_Eye" view......:happy:

Hey Bloo my buddy just got molds for 21 oz. 27 oz vike style cod jigs and 21 oz crippeled herring jigs. Got cod!!!!

....Striper1....I'm not sure if you read it yet.....but the new regulations on Codfish made the local paper.

...They upped it to 24 inches......and dropped the bag limit to 5 !!...

...I'm hoping we get some pollock mixed in !!!....:D

CanalRatt, are you heading up this weekend with us???....:D


....I got a friend who works in a machine shop, he says he can cut me hollow stainless pipes......all I gotta do is bend the ends in :smash: ..so the lead don't drop. It would be nice if he could chrome those suckas for me....;)

..I'm gonna experiment with the first one....I started on it the other night......but my tank ran out.....:mad:

The thread that will not die.

....NEVER!!!......


.....HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA .......!!!!!!!

Bloo not this weekend. The best way to do the pipe jigs is to fill them then cut them. Don't worry about the chrome its meant to catch the fisherman not the cod. Think about it how much light is down 200'! In Maine they us plain lead vike-style jigs NO CHROME!

Bloo here is how I see it
say I get 5 cod over 24 inch each fish should be about 4 pounds good meat? 5 fish is 20 pounds that sounds high so say 15 pounds good take home cod meat at 7 bucks a pound that's 105 bucks of cod for 50 bucks and if you like it the fun of getting it yourself.

now closed zones :af: :af:
where ? when ?
I think that will hurt the small guy out there.

Striper 1 & Bloo
you can get lead at scrap yards from .25-.35 per Lb.
I offer local plumbers the going rate for lead. they just drop it off .
I go thru 5,000-6,000 lbs per year :smash:

mikecc.

Do you sell blocks of lead ?
I would like to help our sponsors:D
GOT LEAD ?:)

......;)


....never thought of junkyards....mikecc.....thanks. As soon as I finish off the rest of the pile....I'll visit my local junkyard dog....:)

HI bloo.....I see you arent letting this die!!!!!C:\My Documents\tlo.jpg

ahhh!!!!! now that our last snowmobile trip for the season is over (unless we get a freak storm) all I can think about is fishing!.....well most my thoughts are of fishing....the others are of my future!!!!

NOPE!!......:D

you are too funny!

hope you guys have fun this weekend on your trip......life is in too much chaos right now for me to go.......:( :( :(

Jay and his blonde wife live in Chicago. One winter
morning while listening to the radio, they hear the
announcer say, "We are going to have 3 to 4 inches of
snow today. You must park your car on the even numbered
side of the street, so the snowplow can get through."
Jay's wife goes out and moves her car.
A week later while they are eating breakfast, the radio
announcer says, "We are expecting 4 to 5 inches of snow
today. You must park your car on the odd numbered side
of the street, so the snowplow can get through."
Jay's wife goes out and moves her car again.
The next week they are having breakfast again, when the
radio announcer says "We are expecting 10 to 12 inches
of snow today. You must park...", then the electric
power goes out.
Jay's wife says, "Honey, I don't know what to do."
Jay says, "Why don't you just leave it in the garage
this time?"

at this time i don't have enough to sell. when I get down under 300 lbs i don't sell.
I will check with a few guys and email you later.
some times you should see what we get.
the best is plumbers lead.(pure) :happy: use for all your fine necks and small jigs, it won't clog the spout or gunk up.
worst is tire weights:mad: I try not to get them.
I 'm getting ready to pour 500 3-4 oz jigs. I have a woman who ties for me(Bucktail).
I just got in the nylon type hair in 8" and 10" 2oz. and 1lb hanks.
My first time i'm going to try some of this. let ya know how it works. ;)

I had a couple but never bothered to stick a surf rod in one ;)

But I did some of my early surf fishing out of a red Fiero GT - that was fun!

I had the cross bars that you would put ski racks or bike racks on top of. I would cushion my graphite rods with rags and old shirts specially configured to cushion and secure my rods on top of the rack without nicking the rod or the real. Once put up top, I would turn the handle on the Calcutta just enough to allow the sunroof to open up all the way... A 13 foot car and a 10 foot surd rod :D

HMMMMMM?

.....295....

:D...OX....how many team-mates left???......

.....just me and you??.....where's Red?..Goose?...don't tell me there off fishing somewhere???.....:D

Good guess.

When I was a "little" younger my cousin and I went down RT 18 doin bout 60mph in his Fiero, I had a ten footer through the sun roof, letting out about 15 or 20 yrds on line, I had that popper saaaailin in the wind.....lol Just to goes the guy who designed that car is a fishermen.!!!!!!

Whenyou came to the end of N Westfield St turned left onto Springfield St. Shaers Market was on left and a Pizzashop on the right. Haven't been up there in 15yrs. I'm sure it's all changed.

Hi Bloo! I was wonderin if you went out today. Me n' Striper1 figgured with gale warnings posted in red on all the marine weather sites they wouldn't go out today. Like ya say i hope they didn't! I didn't call to cancel so i'll be blacklisted:eek: :eek: :eek:

300 pages??.....

We will have to get you out for cod in my boat:D

Oh...

why

not

?

.....298.....

Come on......somebody finish this out.

There's 3 other people in here......post.

shut it down at 300????? why???

is there some kind of written law that sez, no threads will exceed 300?

there is an awful lot of finger sweat that went into making all these pages!!!!!!

not to mention the BLISTERS ON MY FINGERS....

but if john sez the thread will be shut down at 300

and he actually does it!!!!

well...at that point i think i will boycott this thread

i'll i'll ... start a new thread!!! yeah thats the ticket

see you have to remember that "TEAM LOONEY" is watching

day or night we will be here and we will be posting!!!!!

cause we are the proud, the few, brav, clean, reverent, honest, trustworthy, and i used to know the rest

does this say it all!!!!!

never could count!!!!

tell ya something though... ihope someone else shows up here soon.. wouldn't want to run into 300 all by my self

to get back to the dedication of team looney... we are a devoted bunch. we posted here at all times of day and night.

why we have??? that is a good question. we have a dream. that all striper fishing people..white, black, yellow and red will share the beach... we have a dream

we have a dream... that someday all members of s-b wiil get their #50+....we have a dream

we have been posting on this thread, and using it as the worlds slowest chatroom... we have learned from each other

and yes we have cried....mostly from posting things that were so incredibly funny and or stupid.. others cried from falling off the chair and hurting themselves

Alright......I'll help get it to 300.......don't really think JR will lock it at 300. Sure there will be some nights that it will breath again.:happy:

Gotta go feed my dog....keep going.:happy:

7 to go.

but one of the best things that has happened due to this thread was that i got to really know some really great people, and found out that we all share a common thread ourselves..we are all nuts.. and quite possibly a few of us are certifiable

It helps to be COO COO!

Unless we actually fill out 15 posts on #300.........we'll only have 4486 posts.:smash:

i knew you wouldn't miss this... ox

2 to go!

GOTEAMLOONEY!

.....300.....

the honor is all yours.....

i still say if he does close this thread i will boycott it and not post on it again:smash:

picked up a nice 55 gallon plastic drum today.. wondering what would be the best way to use it for a live well???
any suggestions ox

I'm with you....if he locks this thread....I won't post on it any more either! Didn't mean to get number 300......was trying to put Go Team on #15 on 299. I never loaded the team banner to my DT.

figure if i lay it down and make a craddle for it. it would worrk the best. have a real nice air pump for it.

you have been so good at sticking the tops of the pages...you deserved it...the red, white, and blue is cool anyways

if there is one thing i really learned from this thread. it is how to dribble endlessly about nothing:p

i see your still working on it though

guess we'll take this to 301, which will put us at 4500

If your going to use it for herring or eels....I'd get a dip net and use it standing up. They both like to swim in circles. Also recommend putting a Schedule 80 bulkhead fitting as close to the vertical bottom of the drum as possible and fitting it with same size ballvalve and plug. This to be used to draw off ammonia from herring or slime from eels. Standing it up makes it more stable.

you still floating around here somewhere ox???

Sounds good to I.:happy:

I'll get it to 15......you put up the banner on 301....K?

15

I'm gonna go for now....check in later.
