Greg grew up in Duncanville Ken. Nice vid on the weights/lengths.

I live on and fish Lake Naconiche on a regular basis. This Summer I watched Ostertag fish on Naconiche and have seen his truck back out there on at least one other occasion. Watching a 7'2' guy using a 7'6" rod set a hook is quite a site. I magine the space he is cutting down while setting the hook and taking two steps back in the front of the boat. Would love to show him around the lake if he is back in the area at any time.

Glad to see him enjoying life after basketball on East Texas Lakes. Back in the day, when the Jazz and Rockets seemed to bump into each other annually during the playoffs, he was a match up nightmare for the Rockets because he was one of the few 7 footers in the league who could step out and make 3's at a very high percentage.

I realized weighing jigs this week, they obviously advertise the weight of the jig head only. The skirt/collar adds about 1/4 oz. With a trailer, you can almost get a "1/2oz" to weigh 1oz.

Same here, I have been using these packets for years to keep rust off the hooks on my baits.
