hanson Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Huh, there might be something to this?? I think its a very intriguing idea. Very creative as well. I'll volunteer to run a rod without one as a control if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MinnesnowtaWild Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I definitely like this idea...may try it out sometime. Any way that the rattling could ward off Cats or are they attracted to it like other fish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordie Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 look out kitty cats Dtro's back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTro Posted June 16, 2009 Author Share Posted June 16, 2009 look out kitty cats Dtro's back Yeah, you’ll see who’s back when I share some of the hilarious pictures I snapped trying to get a decent one by myself. You’d think I’d never taken a picture before. I’ve been so not confident lately that I hadn’t bothered to set up my tripod in my boat. Well, it’s basically too late after setting the hook and I can’t waste the time after it’s boated, so in a pinch a milk crate on the front boat seat will work. Some shots turn out pretty funny, especially when you think the self timer is on, and then it’s not. Talk about deer in headlights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveD Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 In case the rest of you haven't noticed, dtro is sitting at 192.5 points and is pretending to be a Sleeper Cell ready to pounce. He is one or two nice fish away from the Green and has been building up some steam the last few nights. If you want to hold on to your Flathead Leaderboard spot you best start fishing because I'm warning you, Darren is coming on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shack Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I agree Steve. All it takes is one night and the leader board can change big time and Dtro should never be ruled out. I have no doubt green could be had by him after tonight (if he is going out). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTro Posted June 16, 2009 Author Share Posted June 16, 2009 To be honest with you -I'll be happy to finish in the 200pt club, that has been my goal all along. It's not an easy feat and takes 3 very nice fish to get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinnesnowtaWild Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I'm one fish away from dropping out of the green but I'm just happy to be where I am this year so oh well...sure would be nice though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wastewaterguru Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Green.....I am now a long way from the green.....I get to see alot of nice fish caught......just rarely by me.DTRO better bring some of those bobber for me next time we get out.

Scott K Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Where does one buy these things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fazerfish Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I was just at Cabelas, they had a pack of 3 for$1.99. I bought a pack, then noticed that the Mr. Crappie logo was the same one I use as my Avatar, after a double take and a chuckle, I loaded my cart full of them, must be a sign from the catfishing gods Thanks Dtro, now if I can only catch a cat to use as my avatar, I'm sure it will be because of the green..

DTro Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 I lost my one and only last night to the snag gods. I'm going to go stock up tonight hopefully. It's a confidence thing now I guess and I might be a little superstitous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveD Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 You better get a bunch - they work pretty good. I put one on my leader early this morning and picked up a nice 26# (38" X 23.5") flathead. My line went in the water at 0444 and I had "Fish On" at 0451. That was my only fish and he was on that bullie fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordie Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Where does one buy these things? Scott I can stop and grab some for you if you want then I 'll drop them off at Virgels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
