freddie
freddie met you at the dock when I droped off your guys jets, (those bared naked one are pretty awesome looking. You should of shouted out for the Somethin Fishy. We did well- but came in early due to a sea sick person. It was the worst I ever saw. We ran the 40's 80- 95, BUT went with the 50's at 43'-50'fb at 2.1mph, it was alot easier bringing all that line with 50 leads.
Friday white bass central, anything with a silver back was a magnet, but thanks to Spoonfeeder for giving me the spoon of choice- IT made a night and day difference= BITE ME, and Jager with a gold back- thanks Ron

Hey Ron, thanks again man!! Sorry for forgetting a shout out at you!!
If it isn't a hassle, I may hit you up for a couple more of those bare nakeds.. those things look awesome - hopefully they work half as good!! Didn't even get a chance to get the speed down and see how it'd do.
Tru trip question.. where do you zero the line counter at? Whenthe tru trip hits the water at the right dive angle, or with the diver at the rod tip?Last edited by freddie; 07-15-2013 at 09:46 AM.

You hit zero at the rod tip always, keeps it simple. Mike

zero out...
everybody does it slightly different, I myself go off the water (parellel with tow line so it give you a somewhat accurate idea). If you zero at tip, id add 3-4 feet to lead to account for distance towline is off water....BUT what I found out is....when something works, keep going with it no matter what the boat or your buddy is doing next to you. We all share leads to get us in ball park- But scatter your leads +/- 2' to dial your personal boat in.
3mph may have been fast...How in the heck did you keep your releases on going that fast with 3-4' waves? lol. Be out this weekend- r

I think it makes a difference if you are using inline boards or big boards. Inlines zero at the rod tip and big boards you allow for the distance from the snap to the water.

Most people zero the line counter with the TRU-TRIP @ the rod tip, no matter what you are using, @ the rod tip, then there is never a doubt where you are @. The Bare Nakeds have really been a hit, it just goes to show you do not have to go in stealth mode all the time to capture eyes.
