Leadcore yields big fish in this weeks report, and not just big walleyes! Check it out!
Float fishing or bobber fishing is a great way to target actively feeding walleye. With its eyes positioned on the top of its head, a walleye feeds upward. You can learn how to take advantage of this trait by fishing a float. A float will allow you to position your bait precisely above the fish. A Thill slip float will let you make quick adjustments to the depth you're fishing. For this vertical presentation, a jig will give a more natural and lifelike appearance than a crawler or a minnow.
As you can see the wife is very excited!
This week on Fish Ed, host Jon Thelen details how to fish a Lindy Rig in colder than normal spring water temperatures on Mille Lacs Lake in central Minnesota. Spring walleyes can be found in many locations at this time of year and in this episode, Jon explains how to locate and catch unpressured fish that are in deeper water than most anglers would think with 48-50 degree water temps. If you are looking to catch spring walleyes, you don't want to miss this episode.

Police say a teacher reported seeing three males following a female middle school student who was walking alone in Wilder. The teacher told police that she pulled over to talk to the student as a deterrent.
The three males then walked away and got into what is described as a gray van and left.

Final FGCU Coaches Show Set For Feb. 15
FORT MYERS, Fla. – First-year FGCU men's basketball head coach Andy Enfield and women's basketball head coach Karl Smesko will sit down with host Tom James on Wednesday, Feb. 15, for the fourth and final rendition of the FGCU Coaches Show starting at 5:30 p.m.
The hour-long show can be heard live for free on www.FGCUATHLETICS.com via Stretch Internet. James, the voice of the Eagles, will be on the air with coach Smesko from 5:30-6:00 p.m. and they will be joined by redshirt junior Brittany Kennedy (Spokane, Wash./Lewis and Clark HS/Oregon State). Coach Enfield and junior Sherwood Brown (Orlando, Fla./Olympia HS) will be on the air with James for the final 30 minutes.
Members of the Eagles Club and their guests can attend the FGCU Coaches Show by calling Graham Diemer at 239-590-7107 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com. The show will be held in the Hospitality Suite on the second floor of Alico Arena. Eagles Club members will get the chance to ask questions during the show. If time permits, questions emailed to Director of Sports Information Patrick Pierson (firstname.lastname@example.com) will also be asked during the show.
Brown and Kennedy have each been lauded by the Atlantic Sun Conference in the past few weeks, taking home weekly awards. Named the A-Sun Player of the Week on Jan. 31, Brown is one of two players in the A-Sun in the top 11 in scoring (12.8/11th) and rebounding (6.0/9th). Kennedy, who has 27 steals in her last seven games, was named A-Sun Newcomer of the Week on Feb. 7 after averaging 9.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, 4.5 steals and 4.0 assists in a pair of wins in Jacksonville.
FGCU is the only school to clinch a spot in both the men's and women's A-Sun Tournament and leads the league with a combined 23 conference victories. The women clinched a share of their third A-Sun regular season crown last Saturday with their win over Belmont, while the men completed a season-sweep of Lipscomb on Monday to clinch their postseason berth.
Each FGCU Coaches Show is archived on www.FGCUATHLETICS.com.

Has Nebraska's self-declaration as the "Greatest Fans in College Football" set a level of decorum so high that it cannot possibly be reached? Should the signs around Memorial Stadium be removed?
Dawg Sports has identified the source of the Georgia Bulldogs' two years of malaise in multiple sports, and the solution is clear. It is time for Bulldog Nation to abandon all hope.
The Johnny Damon Sweepstakes appeared to be nearing the finish line Thursday, as Damon tries to choose from several offers far less than the two-year, $20 million deal he and agent Scott Boras have been seeking. Two sources told ESPN.com that the Detroit Tigers have made the largest offer, amid speculation around the industry that that bid is in the range of one year, $7 million. There were indications the sides were still discussing a possible two-year deal. But even the Tigers' one-year offer appears to be the biggest offer on the table. The Atlanta Braves and Tampa Bay Rays have also remained in the bidding, with both teams talking about one-year contracts for fewer total dollars than the Tigers' offer. MLB.com reported that the Braves' offer was for less than $4 million. A source indicated the Chicago White Sox also have expressed late interest.

Fitch Ratings has upgraded Tennessee's bond credit rating to AAA from AA, Sen. Randy McNally (R- Oak Ridge), chairman of the Senate finance committee, said today.
"This is not an upgrade for Tennessee relative to its peers in state government," McNally told the Senate. "However, it is a more favorable rating as compared with non-governmental debt issuers, including those in the private sector."
The rating is an assessment of the credit worthiness of the government's debt issues.

Film and television commercial producers continue to pump money into the local economy thanks to Inyo CountyŌĆÖs unique and not-so-unique surroundings.
During his quarterly report to the Inyo County Board of Supervisors, Film Commissioner Chris Langley said three local film projects recently wrapped up shoots in the area. These included a Dodge Truck commercial that wanted to capture the unique beauty of the Eastern Sierra, a Department of Defense training video that wanted a setting that resembled Afghanistan and a film that has parts of the county standing in for a remote location in Idaho.
Langley said there was also a major Hollywood production shooting in the valley this week that brought two Oscar winners to the area, but he could not share any more details due to a non-disclosure agreement.
Though Langley was unable to discuss the current productions, he said the director, who is ŌĆ£fairly well known, has been very gregarious,ŌĆØ and willing to accommodate fans who have seen him around town.
A look at some Southern Inyo residentsŌĆÖ Facebook pages reveal a number of photos of residents with director Quentin Tarantino (ŌĆ£Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2,ŌĆØ ŌĆ£Inglorious Basterds,ŌĆØ ŌĆ£Pulp FictionŌĆØ).
According to the Internet Movie Database (IMDB.com), Tarantino is currently filming a spaghetti Western titled ŌĆ£Django Unchained,ŌĆØ starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Samuel L. Jackson, Christoph Waltz, Jamie Foxx and Kurt Russell.
Without discussing any specifics or naming anyone involved in the shoot, Langley said a major production planned to film in Independence for the remainder of the week before heading to Mammoth Lakes for another week of shooting.
ŌĆ£This production is bringing 150 people to the county to film all week,ŌĆØ Langley said. ŌĆ£This is a very nice production that is bringing and leaving a lot of money.ŌĆØ
Looking ahead, Langley said he is hoping to get three new productions shooting in the Owens Valley by Christmas, including a film entitled ŌĆ£CampoŌĆØ about the Chavez Gang, which allegedly conducted a couple heists in the Little Lake area in its hey day.

Backpacker Magazine – October 2008
On a snowy night in New Hampshire, Congressional candidate Gary Dodds crashed his car, wandered into the woods, and collapsed. Twenty-seven hours later, rescuers carried him out. And then the real drama began.
The night of April 5, 2006, brought brought a classic early-spring New England storm: big, moist, tumbling gobs of snow, but the temperature–about 34°F–was too warm for the squall to amount to much. The flakes were mostly an inconvenience to drivers on the Spaulding Turnpike, a highway that slices through southeastern New Hampshire, linking the city of Portsmouth to the suburbs northward.
Gary Dodds was driving his 1997 Lincoln Continental–plastered with "Dodds for Congress" stickers–southbound through Dover. It had been a long day in a series of long days for the grassroots-style candidate. He was in a four-way race for the Democratic nomination, and had a business to run, too. At 8:16 p.m., according to his recollection, he glanced at his car radio. When he looked up again, he thought he saw something dart in front of him: a deer, maybe.
He instinctively yanked the wheel right. The car veered into and over the guardrail, skidded across a snowy swale, and after rotating clockwise came to a stop facing into the woods. The airbags had deployed. Dodds had banged his head, and he thought he smelled smoke. According to Dodds's telling, he hurriedly disengaged his seat belt and crawled out.
He remembers little of what happened next. Dodds recalls suddenly being over his head in frigid water, which he swallowed in gulps, and swimming ferociously to avoid drowning. He clawed his way onto land and stumbled, disoriented, through dark woods.
Dodds is 6-foot-1, 180 pounds. He is a sometime hiker and martial-arts practitioner. Now, though, according to his account, after climbing a steep hill his legs felt wooden and he couldn't go on. He was wearing a gray fleece jacket over a dress shirt. His khaki pants and black dress shoe (he'd lost the other) and socks were soaked. But it was dark and cold and he had no idea where he was, or how far he'd come. Maybe he could figure out what to do when daylight came.
He found a hemlock tree and lay down under a bough, in some leaves, and fell unconscious.
Cheryl Hurley couldn't beliEve how fast the driver had disappeared. She'd been driving slowly in the squall when she saw the brake lights flash up ahead and then swerve off the roadway. She pulled over and dialed 911. But the Lincoln's driver was already gone. There was just enough snow to show footprints leading back toward the highway.
When state police Trooper Brian Strong arrived, the accident reconstruction specialist noted the footprints as well and surmised that another motorist had picked up the driver. A phone call was made to Dodds's home, and eventually Cindy showed up. By that time, Strong's supervisor, Sgt. Gary Woods, had also arrived. Woods recalls that Cindy seemed concerned but calm. She asked whether the police would call in search dogs; Woods demurred, pointing out that footprints led back toward the turnpike. In the absence of any solid leads, a third-shift trooper who arrived later simply drove around, poking his cruiser's spotlight into the woods. The next morning, Sgt. Richard Mitchell headed to the scene. When Mitchell arrived, he met Cindy, who by then seemed upset. She'd returned that morning with friends, family, and campaign workers to search. "Her first words to me," Mitchell recalls, "was that the Democratic Party was out to get her husband." She explained that his campaign was threatening the party apparatus, which was supporting another candidate and thus wanted Dodds out of the picture.
"I didn't believe that for a second," Mitchell says. "I live in the district, and I'd never heard of him." Mitchell, a burly man with a fleshy, red-cheeked face, is a 25-year state police veteran, and the sort of cynical, guile-free cop who populates crime-fiction potboilers, offering up self-deprecating maxims such as "I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but..."
Mitchell had reason to be skeptical. In his experience, people left accident scenes only when the car was stolen, or the driver had been drinking or was otherwise in trouble. Cindy assured him this was a legitimate missing-persons case. By noon, with still no sign of Dodds more than 16 hours after the accident, officials called New Hampshire's Department of Fish and Game, the agency responsible for search-and-rescue operations. But this wasn't a typical search. "There was everywhere to look and nowhere to look," Trooper Craig Vetter later recalled. "There was nothing to follow."
Seriously?! Why are you people getting all anal about a flippin' magazine article. This is not JEMS, this is not FIRE/RESCUE, this is not some EMT or medical or SAR journal for the professionals in these fields ... dude this is a magazine. Settle down. So you didn't like the article ... what do you want? Don't read it if you don't like it. Why spend time bad mouthing a good publication? I've been a SAR volunteer for 8 years. I've read BP for probably as long. If I want professional advice and articles on SAR events I look to NASAR publications ... not a frickin' magazine from the new stand. Calm down boys and girls. This is a good magazine that I have seen constantly grow and change for years. I may not like everything I see but this magazine is fantastic for the most part.
Go get your sticks surgically removed from whatever cavity you shoved it up ... seriously.
... now if you wanna bad mouth the tool that staged is ordeal ... go nuts.
I haven't read every article in bp but have read a few stories of survival(or of people who didn't), and judging by that- I would agree with the author that this story is relevent. Anytime someone makes a hoax about being stranded or times where damn near millions are spent on rescueing hikers who were ill prepared, reflects on outdoor enthusiasts, like it or not it's unavoidable.
As a New Hampshire resident, Wilderness EMT and an active Volunteer SAR member. This story has no place in backpacker magazine. Gary Dodds is in the N.H.news(WMUR)every week for doing something stupid,the guy is a nutcase. Many resources and valuable man hours where spent looking for this nut because he needed free press, please stop giving it to him. If you want to include a story about lost hikers write one about the hundreds of volunteer SAR members across the country most of whom are volunteers who pay for their own equipment,training and even gas to help a fellow hiker, climbers or anyone who needs help.
Did backpacker magazine support Dodds campaign?
Stop wasting paper print stuff worth reading.
I dont' get it. I kept looking for more of the story. It seems like this article was a set up for a flashback to the actual survival events, but it never came. How disappointing. Very poor journalism.
glad I didn't renew
I have to agree with Steve Sacco. Continued inclusion of off-topic stories like this are one reason why I'm letting my subscription run out and I won't be renewing it.
OK. I read the whole article and I still don't understand what possible motivation you could have for including it in Backpacking. I give up.

Otter Creek scores big at international beer festivalStaff Report | November 19,2012Vyto Starinskas / Staff FILE Photo
Otter Creek beer is poured at the Killington Brewfest earlier this year where hundreds of people turned out to taste regional beers and to listen to live bands.Otter Creek Brewing Co. of Middlebury took home gold, silver and two bronze medals at the 16th annual Great International Beer Festival earlier this month in Providence, R.I.
A panel of 83 judges selected winners in 44 categories after blind tasting 470 beers and ciders from around the globe.
Included in the medal count were Otter Creek's flagship Copper Ale, which took a silver medal in the German Altbier category. The newly released Hop Session Ale scored a bronze in the American Pale Ale category.
Also, Stovepipe Porter scored a bronze medal in the Brown Porter category.
Wolaver's Fine Organic Ales, a member of Otter Creek Brewing Company, won gold with their Wolaver's Unfiltered Brown Ale.
"Everyone here at the brewery was extremely pleased to hear that we brought four medals back to Vermont.

Some lawmakers are showing solidarity in putting their paychecks on hold.
More than half of Pennsylvania's delegation has asked for its pay to be withheld as long as the government shutdown continues.
Republican Senator Pat Toomey is among them.
And so is his Democratic counterpart, Bob Casey.
Congressmen Charlie Dent and Jim Gerlach are also deferring their pay.
Congressman Michael Fitzpatrick says he's donating his pay to a local church.

Against Wheatland Property Development
Re: September 2008 Joint Hearing on Comprehensive Plan As residents of Queen Anne's County, we vigorously oppose the development of the Wheatlands Farm Project as a mixed commercial area, to include a shopping center, offices and an assisted living facility. Our opposition is based on the disastrous environmental, traffic and public safety consequences of the proposed Project. The Project will not in any way enhance the livability of the area and, in fact, will have just the opposite effect. We urge you to reject the Project so it is not included in the Comprehensive Plan.

Strikeforce welterweight contender and former WEC middleweight champion Joe Riggs was the featured guest on MMAmania.com's exclusive presentation of Pro MMA Radio this week.
Fresh off a unanimous decision victory over Phil Baroni at Strikeforce: "Lawler vs. Shields," the "Diesel" joined host Larry Pepe to talk about the win and his issues with Jake Shields and Nick Diaz, as well as the adversity he has had to overcome to get to this point in his career.
But the real story was how badly he wants to fight Jake Shields, who he says has ducked him for a while.
Although the two have traded barbs in the past, Riggs started the interview with the intention of taking the high road. He said that he was done "talking crap" about Shields and that he was surprised the welterweight was able to beat the heavier Robbie Lawler, saying, "hats off to him" for the win.
But then Pepe informed Riggs that Shields hasn't been as kind to him in recent comments, stating, "As far as a fight at 170, I think my fight there will be for a title fight, and Joe Riggs is of no concern to me. He's not even worth my time. I'm really not even giving him the time of day."
That was all it took before the "Diesel" was off and picking up speed.
"Do I have to watch my language? … Well, fuck him. I tried to be respectful to him. But fuck him. If he wants to go to '85, I'll go to '85. I'll fight him for free. I just don't like him. He's a fuckin' nerd."
Riggs says that he was slated to fight Shields at the June Strikeforce event, but that the fight was canceled in favor of having the first and only EliteXC welterweight champion move up to fight Lawler at a catchweight of 182 pounds.
"Robbie stuck his head in the wrong place and got choked. Robbie'd kick his ass 99 times out of a 100. (Shields) won, so hats off to him, he's tough. But fuck him if he wants to talk shit like that."
The feud dates back longer than you might think. In fact, according to Riggs, the two were supposed to collide shortly after Riggs left the UFC and signed with Strikeforce, in late-2007. Ever since, Riggs says, Shields has been running from him because "I'm a bad match up for him … That motherfucker just doesn't want to fight me."
What gets Riggs' goat the most is that he feels Shields carefully selects his opponents to better ensure victory, something he has never done in nearly 50 fights.
"I'm a fighter. I'll fight who I'm told to fight … He picks and chooses opponents to make himself look good. And now he's not taking this fight because it's a bad fight for him. I'll bust him up on the feet. He's got hands like a two-year-old girl."
So does this mean Riggs plans to have his camp lobby Strikeforce to set up the fight? Riggs feels he doesn't even need to do that, because it's understood.
"I think everybody in the world knows I want to fight Jake Shields, and I think everyone in the world knows he doesn't want to fight me. I'll put purse against purse. If he beats me, I'll give him my whole purse. I just want to fight him … If he beats me, cool. If I beat him, cool. Just fight who you're told to fight."
Riggs credits his latest success to the fact that he recently returned to the camp he started with, Arizona Combat Sports — a move that required facing some old demons. ACS and Riggs hadn't parted on good terms. Recognizing that he had burnt some bridges, Riggs returned to Trevor and Todd Lally with hat in hand, and they welcomed him back with open arms.
Riggs used that momentum to aid him in his recent win over Baroni, who he's also traded insults with in the past. He said that he could tell from the moment they engaged in the pre-fight stare-down that "The New York Badass" had already mentally broke and didn't want to be in there.
Riggs even admitted that he knew how Baroni felt, because Riggs had a similar experience when he fought Matt Hughes at UFC 56. Although he feels he's a better fighter than the former UFC welterweight champ, at the time Riggs fought him, he wasn't mentally prepared.
Mental toughness is something Riggs has learned a lot about in his near 10-year career as a professional and amateur fighter, which is even more impressive when you consider he has yet to turn 27 years old. He openly discussed the death of his first son, who died in Riggs' arms shortly after birth during the summer of 2006. He's also battled an addiction to prescription painkillers, but is today clean.
But through it all, Riggs has maintained his mental toughness, saying, "Whatever doesn't kill ya makes you stronger."
The interview wasn't all sadness and gloom. Far from it.
In fact, highlights from the talk include Riggs re-telling of the UFC 57 battle with Nick Diaz — "Diesel" won via unanimous decision — which culminated in an infamous fourth round taking place in the hospital after the fight.
"He wouldn't stop talking crap … We went to the hospital, I went to get my hands checked, he went to get his face put back together, and he just wouldn't stop."
Eventually, Riggs says, the trash-talking led to Diaz walking up behind him and sucker punching him. And then Riggs shit on himself, sorta.
"I hear him walking up, then he hits me. I was turned around, and then he hit me. I fall right into a double-leg. I shoot on him and end up shitting my pants from picking him up. (Laughs) It wasn't too good, it was tragic … We were honestly fighting for like five or 10 minutes."
Although Riggs admits Diaz may have gotten the better of him at the hospital thanks to the sucker punch, he doesn't hold any animosity towards his former opponent … unless a title shot is on the line.
"He's a great fighter and one of my favorite fighters to watch. We don't like each other, but … I'm a bad fight for him, plain and simple."
Riggs says that Diaz — known for his trash-talking — only "clashes with people who he loses to," which would explain if the two aren't friendly towards one another. He has no interest in fighting someone he has already beaten, unless it's for a title shot, in which case, "I'll fight anybody."
And what does Riggs think of the newest addition to The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) Season 10 roster, Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson? Plenty, considering the two nearly fought back when Slice was merely a YouTube sensation.
"He's not good at all … got no wrestling, no ground and a suspect chin. He's an old bald man … He's made way too much money for the talent that he has."
Riggs recounts how Trevor Lally offered to put up $50,000 for Riggs and Slice to go toe-to-toe in a street fight, but when Slice's handlers discovered Riggs had professional fighting experience, they first tried to impose several rules to ensure the fight remained standing, and then backed out altogether.
So what would have happened had Riggs fought Slice back in the day?
"I would have beat the shit out of him … I would have pummeled him … I would have saved Elite XC, I would have saved a lot of things, saved everybody a lot of time and hassle watching this bum make a fool of himself."
But where would the fun be in that?

Pigs and Frogs
In thick weeds, some anglers use pork or plastic frogs, traditional bass baits that few redfish ever see. But just because redfish seldom see frogs doesn't mean they won't clobber them. Some frogs float; others sink slowly. Anglers can work unweighted buzzing frogs across the surface in thick cover almost like a buzzbait, or pause and let them sink at the edges. Some people even fish them on Carolina rigs.
"We've had success with Stanley Ribbit Frogs," Randazzo says. "They have incredible action; both legs kick up a storm and make a lot of noise. They really are a combination of a topwater bait and buzzbait. Sometimes, I rig a floating frog on a Carolina rig and suspend it above an egg sinker. I get tremendous results from that."
Many anglers attach craw worms to Carolina rigs or rattling bass jigs, which feature lead heads and feathery plastic weed guards. The craw worms' flailing plastic claws attract redfish because they resemble crabs kicking up mud on the bottom. Drop Carolina rigs, jigs or Texas-rigged soft plastics around the edges of thick weed patches or other heavy cover. Work them over drop-offs and drag them slowly along the bottom contour, or sink them into deep holes around the outside bends of major channels.
"Redfish love to hit a craw worm on a 1/2-ounce jig head," says Charlie Thomason, a redfish pro and guide for Bayou Charters in Hopedale, Louisiana. Hook the craw worm as you would any plastic bait and "hop it slowly on the bottom."
Thomason's top craw-worm colors include Louisiana soft-shell crab by Bass Assassin, which is similar to tequila sunrise but with a clear blue-and-black top. He also likes black-and-chartreuse or brown with orange claws.
Standby Spinners
Long a favorite among bass anglers and one of the most versatile baits on the market, spinnerbaits can swim over weed tops or hop along the bottom.
"We use a lot of spinnerbaits when fishing along shorelines that drop off more than 2 feet," says Keith Hartsell, a professional redfish angler from Perryland, Texas, who partners with his brother, Greg. "If we get in deeper structure, or if we get into water that's off-color, we throw a lot of spinnerbaits because they give off good vibrations that attract fish."
Spinnerbaits cover considerable portions of water; work them with either a stop-and-go motion or a steady retrieve. Around thick grass, anglers crank them along the surface or "wake" them just below the surface. In areas with submerged grass, run baits just over the tops of grass tips, barely touching them.
"I reel about five times and give a quick pause because redfish often follow baits," Thomason says. "They don't know if they want to eat it or not. That pause triggers the strike instinct, and they eat it."
Spinnerbaits for redfish generally fall into three categories:
conventional "safety pins"
beetle spins
Safety-pin spinners feature a bent metal arm suspending one or more blades over a usually skirt-tipped head. An in-line spinnerbait uses a straight wire that extends from the head; a spinning blade rotates around the wire. A beetle-type spinner, also known as a "harness" spinner, resembles a safety-pin spinnerbait, but its wire harness temporarily attaches to a standard lead jig head. Often, anglers tip jig heads with soft-plastic minnows or shrimp.
A harness spinner offers considerable versatility. Since the components come separate, anglers can easily switch blades, arm sizes, jig heads or trailers to adapt to changing conditions. If anglers see redfish striking mullet, menhaden or other baitfish of a particular color, they can easily remove one plastic trailer and slip on another that more closely resembles the dominant bait. They can resume casting in seconds without retying. Since the harness loosely attaches to the jig head, it also stands up to the abuse that redfish can inflict upon a lure with their powerful jaws and shell-crushing throats.
"In my opinion, the best harness for redfish is a heavy-wire Hildebrandt with a single gold, number 4.5 Colorado blade," says Arkansas pro Stephen Browning. "I attach it to a 1/4-ounce or a 1/2-ounce jig head. I use one with a big heavy harness because a redfish can destroy a spinnerbait. With a wire swinging on a jig head, it has a little more play and doesn't get bent out of shape. I've caught 40-pound jacks on that type of bait, and it has held up."
Browning uses the single gold Colorado blade for redfish because he fishes a lot of dirty water; Thomason follows the same theory. "When I'm fishing in dirty water, I like something that gives out a lot of vibration or has a little bit of thump to it," he says. "A Colorado blade displaces a lot of water. I like in-line spinnerbaits when fishing open water or clear water along a bank."
Spinnerbaits and buzzbaits probably work best in weedy shallows or around thick cover in extremely shallow water, but spinnerbaits also work effectively in deeper water. In deep water or on days when fish become lethargic, "slow-roll" spinners - barely turn the blades - with steady retrieves just over the bottom. Let the baits plink against oyster shells occasionally or hit the bottom, making a mud trail like a crab. Redfish sometimes follow mud trails to their sources. Slow-rolling works exceptionally well when fishing parallel to drop-offs, banks, jetties or other structure.
Around jetties, deep canals or other open water, anglers may require a bit more heft. In-line spinners and heavy tail-spinners, such as a Mann's Little George, sink more quickly than other spinnerbaits. Toss them toward the shallows and slow-roll them just off the bottom. In water deeper than 10 feet, try vertically jigging Little Georges.
"Most of the time, we use in-line spinners when we go really deep or if we're fishing jetties," Hartsell says. "We try to throw them off the rocks and let them drop into deeper water. On the jetties, we use 30-pound fluorocarbon leaders just in case we get snagged on the rocks. Fishing rocks, the line gets bounced around and nicked a lot. Rocks tear them up badly."
Crank It Up
In more open areas, many anglers use lipless or conventional crankbaits and jerkbaits, which are really long, slim, shallow-running crankbaits. Both baits imitate a variety of baitfish including mullet and work exceptionally well when reds gang up on mullet, menhaden or other baitfish. Popular jerkbaits include the Bomber Long-A, Bill Lewis Slap-Stik and Rattling Rogue.
"I fish a Rat-L-Trap for redfish the same way I fish for bass on Toledo Bend," Randazzo says. "I also throw shallow-diving, lipped crankbaits very frequently. There are a lot of similarities to what I'm doing in both types of environments."
Work floating crankbaits, such as those made by Bomber, Rebel, Strike King or Rapala, near shorelines with significant drop-offs. Toss them toward shore and work them back through cover or over the drops, just as you would for bass, or try running them parallel to drops. Most crankbaits probably dive too deeply to perform effectively in shallow marshes, but crankbaits that dive 2 feet or less, such as a shad-colored Mann's Baby 1-Minus - a pro favorite - create considerable fish-calling wobble.
Most bass anglers already own everything they need to start chasing "channel bass," and most redfish anglers could try something new and very effective by switching to bass tactics. The marine environment usually requires the use of rods with more backbone or lures with reinforced hardware, but the essential tackle and techniques remain the same across the salt barrier.

Forever Legacy builds custom private mausoleums. Our private mausoleums are built from the highest quality granite by the best craftsmen in the industry and are guaranteed in perpetuity.
The cost of a mausoleum relates to its size, location, complexity of the design, and artwork and special features. Custom private mausoleum costs range from several hundred thousand dollars to millions of dollars. The cost of a cemetery plot for mausoleum placement is additional.
Cemeteries also have community mausoleums, offering mausoleum burial in a less private setting. The cost of a mausoleum crypt in a community mausoleum depends on the size of the crypt — if it's for one or more persons — and location. Where land is at a premium, the cost of a mausoleum crypt is likely higher. Community mausoleum crypt prices range from just a few thousand dollars to tens of thousands of dollars.
Mausoleum prices are based on:
- Mausoleum size
- Mausoleum construction materials
- Quality of craftsmanship
- Mausoleum Design Features
- Location
Your Legacy
How do you want to be remembered? Many private mausoleums are architectural masterpieces that have stood the test of time and continue to inspire new generations of visitors. Whether you choose the elegance of a classic design or the minimalism of a modern design, the cost of a private mausoleum is a contribution to your lasting legacy.

How much does a mausoleum cost? Browse our comprehensive guide:
Sepulcher or Garden Style Mausoleums
A sepulcher or garden-style mausoleum is one that has no door and lacks a walk-in interior. This style of mausoleum consists of one or more crypts, which may be built into a wall or other structure that is open – not enclosed. This is the simplest style of private mausoleum, and the price point from a quality mausoleum provider like Forever Legacy starts at several hundred thousand dollars.
Vestibule and Walk-In Mausoleums
Vestibule and walk-in mausoleums are the private mausoleum styles that families tend to think of when they consider mausoleums. Vestibule and walk-in mausoleums are freestanding, enclosed spaces, where the crypt is located in the interior of mausoleum. These styles typically take the form of a small building, and may or may not have a door. Some walk-in mausoleums feature only enough space for the crypts, while larger designs may have room for family to visit, or even a small chapel or niche where the family can pay homage to the deceased.
The simplest vestibule and walk-in mausoleum styles start at $350,000, although more elaborate styles or larger structures add significantly to the price point. Some of the most elaborate walk-in mausoleums easily top the $1 million mark.
Some mausoleum providers, like Forever Legacy, also provide custom memorials to commemorate a loved one. Custom memorials require as much consideration and high-quality attention to detail as a mausoleum, and the materials used in a custom memorial are just as important as in mausoleum construction. As a result, families can expect a custom memorial to be comparable in price to an entry-level mausoleum – or more, if the family wants a more elaborate memorial.
In addition to the mausoleum style, a variety of other factors go into the final custom mausoleum price. More elaborate designs, material selection and other factors play a role in determining the final cost of a mausoleum. The style of the mausoleum is only the starting point in calculating price. For more information on mausoleum design and construction, mausoleum styles or a custom mausoleum quote, contact Forever Legacy.
Building Materials Play a Role in Private Mausoleum Cost
Building materials form the blank canvas for creating a beautiful, lasting private mausoleum. Low-quality building materials may discolor or weather too quickly, and can ruin the legacy of the private mausoleum. A premium mausoleum provider, such as Forever Legacy, uses only the highest quality granite, which withstands weathering and retains its beautiful characteristics far longer than inferior materials.
It's important for families to work with a quality-focused mausoleum provider in order to ensure a lasting legacy. Other providers cut corners or use materials that don't stand up well to the test of time. Marble, for example, while beautiful, doesn't withstand erosion well; mausoleum designs featuring marble wear away until they're faded and indistinct. Families want to ensure longevity with the type of investment that a custom mausoleum represents, so it's vital to work with the right materials to ensure the mausoleum ages well.
Design features and construction details are an important factor in determining mausoleum cost. On the most basic level, a simple design costs less to execute, and therefore translates to a lower mausoleum cost. A more elaborate design, featuring embellishment or custom design details such as interior lighting, requires more time and materials to execute, so it drives the cost.
When it comes to design and construction, families should consider the long-term investment they're making in choosing a custom private mausoleum. Working with expert architects and master craftsmen who can make the design vision a reality carries value beyond the price tag. What family would want to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars – or even millions of dollars – on a private mausoleum that looks bland or is constructed with sloppy craftsmanship?
Families can control custom mausoleum costs somewhat by selecting a size or location whose cost is consistent with their expectations. A small private mausoleum on the family estate costs significantly less than a large custom mausoleum in a cemetery plot where land prices are at a premium. Changing the size or location of the private mausoleum can significantly impact the final price, and may be the best place for families to compromise if cost is a concern.
A custom mausoleum is a major investment, and it deserves the proper materials and high-quality construction to accurately reflect those interred within. Contact Forever Legacy for a custom mausoleum price quote, and to begin creating a lasting legacy for your family.
Let us build your Legacy today.
Our commitment to you is to provide exceptional service along with an exceptional legacy. You'll find no better private mausoleum construction team. Contact us today for information on building a New York mausoleum or to begin planning your legacy.

In history
The first Gypsies (1) came from the north of India and arrived in Europe during the 14th and 15th centuries; in 1348 a group called Cingarije were observed in Prizren in Kosovo and from 1385, texts mention families living in slavery in Valachia and Moldavia. The groups were spread out during the first half of the 15th century, sometimes with the blessing of the authorities. In 1417 the German emperor Sigismund gave a letter of recommendation and protection to a group of Roma from
In peace and affluence, Gypsies were tolerated for their craft and livestock-raising skills, but any deterioration in the economic or political situation meant repression and persecution. Over the centuries, expulsions forced them to migrate. Many arrived in
According to Council of Europe estimates, between seven and nine million Roma live in Europe from
In the past 20 years, international institutions, especially the European Union and the Council of Europe, have become aware of this. But despite their efforts to provide schooling for Roma children, Roma continue to suffer discrimination and have become poorer. In 2005 the Decade of Roma Inclusion was launched under the auspices of the World Bank, the United Nations Development Programme and the EU to make it easier for Roma to access education, jobs, health care and housing in nine eastern European and Balkan countries (4). But three years into the project, experts find the results disappointing. While public opinion is becoming aware of the transnational nature of the problem, individual states delay measures to facilitate integration.

Those who lived in small towns did not benefit from the redistribution of land and had to migrate to the larger cities."

Just 30,000 Roma remain of the 120,000 who lived in Kosovo before 1999. They are scattered over the Serbian area in the north of the country and some enclaves in the Albanian sector south of the Ibar. The scale of the destruction in Mitrovice and Pristina makes evident the violence of the ethnic cleansing there. Extremists from the Kosovo Liberation Army (UCK) claimed that the Roma worked for the Serbian army to justify their expulsion after the Nato bombings and the retreat of the Serbian army.
In Orahovac/Rahovec in southwest Kosovo, barbed wire is stretched across the roofs of homes and everything is ready to blockade the streets at the first alert. One family has protected its house on the heights above, in the middle of the no-man's land that marks the border between the Albanian city and the Serbian ghetto. (None of this prevented Albanian extremists from burning down several houses in the Serbian quarter during the March 2004 riots.) "We are rejected by both communities.

"As a child I spoke Romany with my Bulgarian neighbours, and Serb and Turkish with my classmates. I built my house with my own hands and I'll stay in Kosovo. This is my land."

Resentment spreads
The ultranationalist movement that emerged in the region in the early 1990s has no trouble mobilising resentment among those left behind during the economic transition. "When so many Bulgarians below the poverty line find out that the EU has set up special aid programmes for the Gypsies like free medical care, when they can't afford to buy medicines or heat their homes in the winter because of fuel costs, then they are ready to listen to an extremist party like Ataka," said François Frison-Roche, a Bulgarian specialist and researcher at the research institute, CNRS.
In the eyes of poor Bulgarians, the poorest Roma without work or resources are looters, who steal electricity by linking up to the grid illegally. The media are happy to focus on the trafficking and crimes attributed to the Roma community. During the 2006 presidential elections, the Ataka coalition and its leader Volen Siderov won nearly a quarter of the Bulgarian vote. During the campaign they called for Gypsies to be "turned into soap". Now they want a "government programme to fight Gypsy crime".
Ataka's aggressive campaign is attracting many, convinced that all problems are due to the Roma and disappointed that the traditional parties are not dealing with the problem. In

Are people just not getting the message or what? Every year, especially around Christmas and New Year's, there are what seems to be an infinite number of news stories, public service announcements, press conferences, even scare tactics regarding the dangers of driving while under the influence. And yet the latest stats from law enforcement authorities in Los Angeles County seem to indicate that a lot of people just aren't listening--or at least not enough of them.
The county has what's called the Winter Holiday DUI Mobilization program designed to nail intoxicated drivers. This year the program ran for twenty days from 12:01 Friday, December 13th through midnight Wednesday, January 1st, 2014. During that time, officers representing 100 county law enforcement agencies arrested 2,268 people for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. That's exactly 100 more people than were arrested during a nineteen day holiday campaign last year. Granted, this year the campaign lasted one day longer but 2,268 DUI arrests in less than three weeks is way too many, particularly given how much information is out there on the subject.
Law enforcement officials haven't offered any clues about why the numbers are still so high. Perhaps they are as perplexed as anyone. First and foremost, drinking and driving all too often results in accidents where innocent people are killed or maimed, many of them children. According to Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), 802 people were killed in DUI accidents in California in 2012. That was up from 774 the year before, an increase of 3.6%. Such occurrences wreak havoc in the lives of hundreds of thousands of families every year in the Golden State alone.
Not drinking and driving is the socially and morally responsible thing to do but it's also financially prudent. A first offense arrest and conviction for DUI in California will cost you an estimated $12,000 in fees and fines, not to mention license suspension for at least a year and escalated insurance rates. Compare that to the relatively low cost of even the most expensive taxi ride home after a night of partying. Let's hope eventually, more people will get the message. Any way you look at it, drinking and driving just isn't smart.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - Missouri's Republican-led Legislature put a priority on cutting taxes this year. But the same lawmakers who passed a $700 million income tax cut also approved numerous little-known fee increases.
One of those measures could increase fees on driver's licenses and vehicle registrations, costing Missourians almost $22 million annually.
Another bill would impose fees on mailed-in speeding traffic tickets, affecting an estimated 170,000 cases annually.
Missourians could pay more to get copies of their own medical records or court transcripts. Businesses could get charged more for certain Agriculture Department services. And court fees could rise in some places.
Although fees and taxes both take money from people, many Republican lawmakers have drawn a philosophical distinction. They say taxes are applied generally, and fees are charged only for specific services.
