Advice Needed?
Submitted by DieHard on Sat, 2009-04-04 10:01
Hey
i hav got some lures but can i use them to be jigged as i av asked ppl and they say yes but i fish in about 35 metres of water around 3 mile.
in the pic i av 2 glow ones and 2 red ones the rod and reel i reckon is best is my baitcaster 6ft with 10lb fireline.
the jigs weigh i thnk 20grams.
i also av the blu one which is 110g on the other side it looks like a squid and glows in the dark very very bright and for ages.
would it be suitable for my rod or is it too heavy?
How would i fish both lures?
thnx
Eric

110 g
i would guess it is a fair bit to heavy for your outfit mate if i was you i would go for something a bit little in the range of 20 grams and prob nothing bigger
tight lines

Why is resizing images so
Why is resizing images so hard for people? Just email them to yourself and let xp make them smaller if you really cant work out how to do it yourself.

Jigs!
The 20gram lures are good for shallow water stuff but not 35m especially drifting. On anchor not so bad but in waters of say 10-20m drifting or on anchor then 20g is ok. The heavier 100gram metal jig is too heavy for 10lb especially if your rod is a true 10lb rod!

The most foolproof way I can
The most foolproof way I can think of is, if you right click on the image on the desktop, select send to > mail recipient it will probably pop up a dialog box asking if you want to make the pictures smaller. Selelect (the first time) Show more options and pick Small (fits in 640 x 480) then press ok. It will then maka smaller image in an email and youc an just save it somewhere to use on the website and to mail to people.
There are an endless number of ways to do this, but if you have vanilla xp or vista, that should work fine.

Open the image with paint
Open the image with paint and press control W. put 25 or 50 in each feild depending on original image size, works for me.

Thats kind of half useful
Thats kind of half useful advice.
If you're going to recommend the use of ms paint, then you would be best of pressing ctrl-e (or attributes in the image menu) and then changing the width to 640 and the height to 480 for regular landscape pics.
