GB -

That's the rig you showed me at the Mass Bass show? No kidding.

Jim I thought of you and Devils Bridge as soon as I saw how good this thing works. You just might see me out there this weekend if the winds are not to bad.Also can't wait to get over to Sow and Pigs with it. This thing trolls and controls the best of any BIG school rig I have tried. Congrats Bliz I think you have a winner. Now how about bringing a few other colors over and you and me giving them a try out side as Jim said I would love to be a tester for some other colors

. That first one set me back a bit but you got to pay to play.Matt yes thats the rig I bought one from the guy at the show.

Its pumping offshore still, pigs and devils bridge have some heavy swells.

likwid is right...yesterday it was blowin 25-30 again and the swells were pretty big. It was weird...70 deg at my house in the sunshine, went down to the boat it it was 48 and frezzing cold blow your hat off kind of day...so I went back to the house.

I may have to try one of these "bliz-krieg" rigs. GB...did it tangle or twist up up much?

likwid · 05-13-2005, 07:35 AM

Wed it hit about 75 at the house but on BB and Vineyard Sound it never got above about 45-50. Was just plain miserable out there if you weren't in full foul weather gear.

Never switched the instruments over to water temp, was too cold to care.

One boat fishing quicks and nobody out on pigs or the bridge yet.

Jim never got a tangle and I don't think it can twist its made with real good snaps/swivels so it seems to ride true at all times. You asked about a down rigger do you have one and use it? I have a Scotty that I have had for years but only used a few times but would like to learn how to put it to good use this season so any help would be great.

If you could only surfcast them

Not sure if I'm letting the cat out of the bag early but I am putting a website together for Don (initially started by Monique) - there is some more info on the site and a lot of info to come: http://gagslures.com/ . He is in the process of making the text he wants and gathering the materials for me to incorporate in the site.

Some of the daisey chain info is up there.

Capt Don's shop was experimenting with some daiseychain stuff a little while back and was apparently hammering bass and tuna on them. My only caution is make sure you have good strong line
