The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Yellow Darter Tagger gave me. Looks like a bloodhound sniffing for fish.

A properly built and balanced Danny under the right conditions will outfish any striper plug ever made IMO. This is the only plug Ive ever been able to catch a Bass on almost every single cast for several hours straight. For me, nothing else has ever come close.

Tough question, it is so hard to narrow it down to just one. I guess I will go with a Bernzy Surf Howdy.

A MAC danny that used to slay. I hung it some on gear once and it was lost but it outfished every wooden plug on own for bass. Salty's 2 ounce needle in yellow is THE go to plug to cast to the tuna fish. If you know how they like it it is deadly. It has caught more SBFT's than any plug I use to cast to them. The thing looks like I dragged it behind my truck for a week but it still kills 'em.
