Sounds good Gordy, or just give me a call I can meet you at the landing, I just live up the hill.

Hopefully they get some in soon, Ill be sure to try them, probably alive so I can go for some flats, I did some research on the mississippi the other day and have a couple nice lookin spots to try out...

So I tried out these little bobbers last night.

3 rods with rattle bobbers = 2 flatheads, 1 channel, 1 fish unbuttoned halfway to the boat and 1 miss on a hookset.

3 rods with no bobbers = one 5 pound flathead that never pulled a click, caught him with the circle hook when we reeled up to move.

Uncanny.

Does Wally World carry anything similar?

I don't have time to get to Cabelas or Fleet Farm, I suppose I could order some in at work but I want to give it a whirl tomorrow.....

I'll bring the boat and the bait if someones got a few rattling bobbers for me to try...

The other day, I put the one Darren gave to me about 1" above the bait. I was successful in boating the only fish that gave me a run, a small 24 incher. So, it doesn't seem to scare them away, that's for sure.
