Hi hooping buddy i'm kevin

Did you say something about hot tip?

ctfphoto · 09-11-2013, 02:14 PM

Advice, Play the odds ...

Use 5 nets or none at all.

As a poker player, odds are very important, same in lobstering ........

i call bullshit on this one

TJones · 09-11-2013, 05:04 PM

i did that once when i was working alot and could afford it . box of bugs was around 165 -175 + . well worth it but not cheap . whats the going rate ? 15 - 20 a pound at the least? they way i see it , all you need is one big score for it to pay out .

Hopefully Jim (Sabaslayer) will chime in soon, but do your self a MASSIVE favor! Go to one of Jim's seminars and even try a copy of his book!

Cut my learning curve WAAAAAAY DOWN!

Also try reading some of Drakes post from last year for some great reading and his " Drake Pucks" are the BOMB!!!!

I have to say I am a total bug addict and am almost salivating waiting for the season!!!!
