i know color is awefully controversial but how many guys use pink/ bubble gum colors.

i was on a very clear lake last year and i was fishing an area that had recieved quite a bit of pressure. i couldn't catch them but could see them. i put on a pink shakey head and caught more than i was catching doing anything else. It didn't make much sense to me but i wasn't complaining. So how many of you use pink. ike

Hiya -

I like bright colors - pink, methiaolate, school bus yellow, all white - for smallies. Great grub colors when they're really snapping. Put a 4" pink grub on a 1/2 oz ballhead and crank it as fast as you can. Also really good for soft stickbaits like Super Flukes and Slug-gos. I fish them on spinning gear with fireline so you can cast 'em a mile, but tough to feel hits sometimes, so I fish bright colors just so I can see the bait. When it disappears, set the hook...

Cheers,

Rob Kimm

My girlfriend only uses pink. When she comes to a fishing store with me and she sees a pink lure, she gets it for herself and then wants me to tell her how to use that random lure she picked up. I only let her purchase good lures though, not some gimmick lure.

I can't say that I have used Pink much. I know Al Lindner swears by a pink X-Rap for Smallies. I still haven't played with Pink though but I did get a couple Pink baits to give them there fair shake. wink.gif

Haven't used pink much for bass but i had great success in canada northern fishing with pink. Matter of fact i've got a pink x rap and shad rap "retired", hanging on the wall. This year i plan on learning a lot more about bass fishing and will have to keep the PINK in mind.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
