Absolutely unbelievabale, fantastic work of are!!!!!!!!!!

Keep in mind, whatever the RPM of the motor, it is measured at the shaft, the further you attach your lure away from this shaft, the faster the lure moves to keep up with the motor shaft. No, the RPM of the lure remains the same, just the speed of travel increases.

Probably the same A--hole that offered the free teeshirt and recipe book, if you sent him a recipe.

Great idea, I have had some of those same problems in the past. Coley

What is the test?? See how long they can stay in a display case, before they yellow.

Nice job Charlie. Man, you learn fast.

I saw this in Clinton, it is a brilliant idea. And, it is loud.

Absolutely, outstanding job. I am glad you did it, I couldn't of done it as well.

Nothing like the "Thrill of Victory"

You are going in the right direction. If you are talking about making the lip slot straight across the bait. After you cut out the bait, before you start shaping it, while it is still flat, cut your lip slot. I don't know what tool you use to cut it with, if it is a band or scroll saw, besure the blade and the table are set at 90 degrees to each other. Keep up the good work.

Well, here is a pic of what KC Dano, taught me at the get-to-gether in Clinton. KC is the best painter I have ever seen doing it in person. He knows what he is talking about. Coley

Nice job, Craw. You learn quick. Go ahead and do the tutorial, others may be interested in the process. Keep up the good work!! Your right about KC, super painter.

WOW, what else can I say. The get-to-gether was fantastic. Seeing some old friends and making some new ones. I really thought it would of been hard to top the 05' get-to-gether, but 06 did just that. A lot more "how to's", mainly because of all the rain. The only sub-par performance was provided by the fish. All the warm weather and then a cold front and 3 days of rain. Deb and Nate were great host as usual. All in all I think everyone had a super time. The tough part was saying goodbye until next year. You guys need to make your plans now to get there by hook or crook in 2007. The long drive home wasn't bad, it could of been better, if Charlie would of helped. Like I said to start with.....WOW Coley

If you are going to use the plastic dip, you need Virgin Lacquer thinner. So far, I haven't been able to find any non virgin thinner that will dissolve the plastic. It will melt it, just not dissolve it. Coley

Yes, KC, Sauger it is, on Saturday night. But, let me assure you, the Hobo is one extremely good meal. Coley

Our major activity will be eating, without a doubt!!!! Man, I wish we were on our way right now. I have been looking forward to it since we left last year with a tears in our eyes. Saying goodbye was really, really tough. Nathan and Deb are such wonderful hosts. Do you think I am excited??

She ain't gettin her Coley Man, I am through with that bitch. If you see me with my arms around someone that fat, I am holding her for the police. I will sell you some corn KC. She liked it last year. But, you better get her some Fat Free chips. She really likes chips.

My friend I have lost 43 lbs since that picture was made. I'll be sure and wear a "name tag" or you may not recognize me. I here by declare my divorce from Zoey, and last I heard she was getting all dolled up for you.

Well, thats the main course. To start this meal off, we are having deep fried Vadilia onion rings. "A Great Redneck Beer Recipe" I can hardly wait. Looking forward to seeing old friends and making some new ones. Coley

A hobo is a cook out, all cooked in a NEW galvanized garbage can. (hence name HOBO) Here's how I do it. I place a Stainless steel grate in the can, about 4" off the bottom. Fill the can with water up to the bottom of the grate. Stand corn on the cob up on the grate around the inside of the can, 2-3 rows deep. Leave one or two husks on. Place new potatoes inside the corn with the largest potato on top. Place on a fish cooker and slow steam until the largest potato is fork tender. Then throw in some smoked sausage and cook another 30-45 min. Ask Charlie or Gene how good it is. Look at pic.

Charlie and I will be there. All 4 days and wish it was more. Coley

Welcome aboard Darren. How far are you from Clinton. Looking forward to meeting you. Coley

Looking forward to seeing you again David. Coley

Fishfry for Saturday night will be fine Nate. When do you want the Hobo, Friday night? How many should I plan on for fishfry? Coley
