[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 1592241, member: 5412"] Those are the kickers that I use. Very effective. I fish the wind in a tube. Try to get to the far end of a pond early in the am, and when the wind comes up, make sure its in the direction that will assist me back to the truck. I had an occasion when a BIG water snake came across a pond, right at me. When it got in close, I whacked it with my rod. It disappeared, and all of a sudden it came up IN MY TUBE!!! Grabbed it by the head, and got to the bank where I let it go, and I got out and shat myself...... Later on, I was relating this story to a group of fishers at the tulsa boat show that had a booth set up. They sponsored tube only bass tourny's. The guy told me that I made the snake scared by whacking it with the rod, and it wanted out of the water. Closest place was my tube. He said use the rod tip to gently guide the snake away from the tube and there will be no problem. I believe his reasoning, and trust his advise. BUT! I have a derringer with snake shot in my tube now. [/QUOTE]
