Location: Kalamazoo, MI | A rainbow is an arc of spectral colors, usually identified as red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet, that appears in the sky opposite the sun as a result of the refractive dispersion of sunlight in drops of rain or mist.

| A Rainbow is not a prism. A prism is 3-sided. A rainbow is created by light passing through a water droplet, which is a sphere.
Anyway, back to a previous clue. I've been looking for a wood bait, but if you look at this clue, you will see that just won't do!
"I am not on the bottom, I see it sometimes. 8 from the end is where you will find me. NAME me you must, not too easy, you see, an item from golfing rhymes with a large portion of me."
A driver is also called a "Wood". Tee's are made of wood. The golf item is a wood, and that rhymes with?

Mr. Worrall, The "RED DRAGON" is the results of years of research into the secrets of the ancient oriental color attractants for trophy fish. Bill Schwartz has perfected the ultimate muskie crankbait color which is being field tested as you read this. Only those people with the highest level of security clearence can test these baits........or people who have met Bill during an infrequent state of inebriation. LOL! Someday you to may be able to use this awesome combination of ancient secrets with modern day crankbait manufacturing!
The RED DRAGON....WOW!

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | nwild!! YES!! Red is the first color to disappear in the spectrum under water, very quickly going to black as the light filtering effects water has does it's work. You win a Slammer crankbait, send me your address. Great work, or lucky guess, whichever, good JOB. NOW! We get to looking for the big mamma, the mother lode, the big bunch of stuff. Clue! I am an object, you will use me, to do what you do using all the last three!! |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | Shep, Spieg hit the rainbow answer. 8 from the end of the alphabet is S for Slammer. Red is the first color to go. Tee and Tree rhyme. Wood is from a tree. this Slammer is not a bottom seeking bait, like some others might be, but sees the bottom sometimes because it is used as a shallow twitch bait so much, and rolls very nicely. What?? You expected easy?  :)  Go get the mother lode!! |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | I am not what you think, not at all, you see, I am not made of plastic or wood from a tree. I am not at all simple, nor am I complex, I am just what you need to get the item you need next!! I AM on this site, I'm there for you to see, but you need to look carefully to find the right reference to me. |

Hi,
A couple things:
About rods... A bass-style flipping stick is a super muskie rod, spring, or any other time of year. I use one probably 30% of the time, and if you count custom rods made from flipping stick blanks, it's probably closer to 60%. A fast-action flipping stick is an incredibly versatile rod... For those who say a flipping stick can't handle a big muskie, let me know and I can offer a number of arguments of the 50" plus variety, from my own experience and others... Best thing about them - they are usually drastically lighter than most muskie rods.
As for leaders, definitely go lighter, but steer clear of the cheap berkley variety. Unless it has a coastlock or cross-lock snap, stay away. The cheap fold-over snaps on the #20 berkley leaders *will* come open, especially when twisted - say, when a fish rolls in cold spring water, for example. Besides, lots cheaper to make your own.
I do one of two things in spring. Most often, I use a lighter single-strand leader material, a #6 coast-lock snap (rather than the #9s or #10s I use the rest of the year) and a downsized ball bearing swivel (or just a solid ring for stuff other than bucktails). Split rings instead of snaps works fine too.
If I'm using mono, I'll often take some coated stranded wire, nail-knot it to the mono (and if you use mono, learn to tie a Bimini Twist - it's easier than it looks) and then tie the wire directly to the bait with a simple knot that is variously called a coast loop, a fisherman's loop, or any number of other names. A little hard to explain, but a knot you can find described in saltwater how-to guides online. Nice thing about this is, no hardware...
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
RK
Here's my feeble attempt to post what I think has all the objects that are clues to the winning thread. Rob talks about the leaders, line, Berkley Cross Lock Snaps, tying knots, and rods.
My guess is the object that is complex , but not entirely is a Graphite Rod. You also need it to use all the other objects that are clues to this Scavenger hunt.
catch ya later,
Krappie |

| Well in keeping with the progression, I would have to say a "HOOK" is the next item. Can't catch a fish without them.
