      Anyone to who's not a believer of The Lord Jesus Christ I think you should turn to Him before you die, or He comes back and all you need to do is believe with your heart and confess with your mouth and repent of your sins
      John 3:16 for God so loved the world that He gave His one and only son that who so believe in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life

    What the guy refers to as chunks are styled off the classic Uncle Josh's pork rind jig trailers that we called a pig and jig. In fact Uncle Josh pork rind trailers are available again which I'm happy about. You should do a new vs old jig trailer challenge using Uncle Josh's against a Krackin Kraw.

    Those ring worm twister tails are great rigged with a round jighead. Use them for walleye and yellow perch. They do work for those picky bass too. You guys picked out some interesting baits for sure. Great video as always! Those chunks used to be made of pork rinds and had to be kept in a jar with some kind of liquid. Wish they were rubber back in the day. So much easier to put the hook into them.

    Good afternoon sir, I'm not even sure what your name is. I just decided to subscribe to you recently like within a few minutes ago from this time. I had been waiting for some of the channels that I subscribe to to put some new stuff out, and it just wasn't happening so I was looking around for older videos of some of their stuff which I did for a while but I just thought maybe why not look for something else. (originally I didn't want to take on any new channels because I subscribe to a lot of them). I haven't had long enough time to research you but I guess I will from now on. What I wanted to say was I don't even know The state and city of your origin or where you fish out of generally. This just looked like a really cool store to go to. I didn't even hear of some of the baits that you were talking about. I usually just get my stuff at the local Walmart and/or Academy Sports shop. I've got so much tackle that it's coming out of my ears! I'm currently on disability, so I have a lot of time on my hands. Had some problem with my lower back and hips. Recently a year ago I had a fusion done on my spine and this past February I had my first hip replacement. I'm getting the second one in January of 23. The first one helped me get through so much pain that I was able to finally get out of my shell meaning my house from being cooped up. I went out and got a fishing license. I had been an avid fisherman all my life but for the last couple years I wasn't. I did move to Florida from Pennsylvania 5 years ago, so we are in a much better climate to go fishing year round. If you can answer any of those questions or things that I asked, that would be great. If not, I'm sure you're busy, therefore hopefully one of your other subscribers can help me out. Thanks for what you do I appreciate it. I'm trying to learn as much as I can, because when I'm totally said and done here I would like to try to start a UA-cam channel myself. Thinking of even starting one the way I am now. I just don't know how I would do it without a camera person. Take care, God bless!
