Heater / Seal?

the packers
IMnsHO (in my not so humble opinion):
The packers didn't look so great against the vikings. Don't count any team out yet for the division. There are still nine games left before the playoffs....

Slimmers?
Never heard the term slimmers before. We always called them snot-rockets. Try some large crank baits like magnum Rapalas or Mirrolure 111s or 113s. The larger sized Shadraps are also good. IMHO...

Serial Killer
I line up Cheerios and mow them down with .22 shorts. I'd go with .22 shorts if they are accurate out of your gun. They have plenty of punch for chippies and don't carry as far.

Popeil's Pocket Fisherman

Muskie Reels
Most of the time I use a 5500C3 with 50 lb. Power Pro for pike. I generally do not throw double 10s or other very large baits. I also have a 6000. The 6000 makes an excellent reel for muskies using...

I prefer the Mitchell spinning reels (old or new). My favorites are the really old 300's & 308's that were made in France. They lasted forever.
