Re: Bearing upgrades - your thoughts appreciated

Servicing your own reels is therapeutically satisfying! Like anything, you invest in your reels, whether it be 200$ or 600$, you need to service your investment for it to work flawlessly for years to come. I define servicing as your typical breakdown, cleaning, applying grease/oil. Bearing upgrades ...

Prperlly cleaned and tuned reels make using lighter baits much easier and smotther casting. i bet 1/4 the local guys have...

Re: Balsa and other wood crankbaits - Who uses them?

Let's not forget we're on Fish-Hawk. Wood cranks, especially JDM wood cranks are the cream at the top and hard to acquire. If you want California red wood cranks, contact Herman Oswald on FB from Catching Concepts, you'll also need a IG account as that is where his cranks are posted when available, ...

Gidday Hawkers, Thought I’d share my yearly report as it’s been a while since I posted one. It’s a recurring fact that these weekend getaways always seem to start with a group text, needless to say, that’s how it started. The plan was to head up to Rick’s cottage on Megabucks weekend, that way we’d ...

Re: Kawartha Lakes... Disappointed with the Fishing here !

Hope this doesn't come off too strong, but it's not our fishery, you just seem very challenged when it comes to fishing. Might want to take on some other hobby.

Re: A call for help!!!!Please...trolling motor

If no luck here, try Pirate Cove or OBW.
Regardless, don't pull out :shock: :lol: just go fishing and do it the old fashion way by dropping an anchor.

Re: I've met Luke

One of the very few to win both a Bassmaster event, and the Forest cup.

It will boost the oxygen level in the water.

I've met Luke

Luke Clausen!!! If you had asked me last year, if I'd be downing a few beers with Luke Clausen, I would have said never in a million years. It is one of many perks since I've joined ranks with Megabass, to which I am very thankful. When you think you know stuff in regards to fishing, you then meet a...
