they'll go through checked baggage just fine.  TSA?  don't know.
have taken a few crankbaits through without issue.

I was thinking you were bringing your new ride?

Bringing my new ride??  Hmmm.... lets see... 12 hr drive for 818 miles towing a boat. Nope!! It's cheaper to fly, and backseat off Lee's boat.  lo lo

I can't take the frogs because I'm only taking a carry on. Short layover in Atlanta, not risking it taking a checked bag. But thanks for the suggestion CF.  ~beer~

Yes! On my way to Parris Island the layover was 15 minutes and we had to run to the other side of the terminal.

Man.. I sure hope the layovers stay short. Heading over, I will be very excited to get to the Rally site, but coming back?? If we have a long layover, LMG will start getting too heavy to carry!!  lo lo ~roflmao

Quick question, never fished Guntersville before, is it considered a clear or murky/brown water lake?  Starting to think about what lures to bring

Never jigged over there this time of year, but may be good on the shell beds  :-*

If they move water and we get a little sprinkle, hang on baby, I'll be settin close  ;)  ;D

Don't have the fluke tied on yet.

I have been working grass heavily the last month and have found out I love bladed jigs, need practice with frogs, and swimbaits rock in grass.

Almost ready for " THE " grass lake.

Our first year there, jigs with a craw trailer and t-rigged worms were the ticket. Most of our fish came out of Mill Creek that year.
