In reality I think he actually just called you by your last name as opposed to Numby, but I'll leave that off this forum

I wrap mine with strips of lead then I can easily adjust how much and where I want the weight... when the experiment is over I weigh the strips and proceed from there... I think the majority of my hits come as the plugs sinks...
as the Professor said.. all those calculation make my head hurt.

A good run is better than a bad stand!

thanks Paul.... same to you.. works been insane 14 hour days ( no time to troll fishing web sights)since September ( pulled the boat and missed the entire fall run) at one point I worked 21 days in a row with out a day off...we moved 3 plants... still more to come in February... with this weather ..Looks like I'll be making plugs instead of ice fishing!

A good run is better than a bad stand!
