So here's a rundown of the bait I bought:

- Gitzit Tubes; color = green craw (mentioned above)

- Yum 5" Dinger (worms); color = green pumpkin

- Strike King "Bitsy Flip" 1/2 oz mini flipping jig; color = black/blue

- Strike King "Rage Tail" Rage Craw 4"; color = black/blue (Dick's employee said to use with the flipping jig)

- Strike King "Rage Tail" Rage Craw 4"; color = summer craw (bc it was buy one get one 50% off)

- Lunkerhunt Popping Frog 1/4 oz; color = green tea (because I'm intrigued how this works)

- Magic Bait's Liver and Cheese Catfish Bait

Tomorrow Amazon will be delivering the following:
- Rebel Classic Critters

- Heddon Triple Threat

I believe I should be set for the weekend but let me know if I'm missing something in my arsenal. Also, any tips or suggestions on best practices with the above items, would be greatly appreciated.

I think it would have been that regardless if Orlov sustained a more serious injury.

Yep. The warmer the water, the more of it the fish use and the more they'll expend the energy to chase crankbaits, etc. Rebel Craws are a solid and very traditional crankbait that will absolutely catch fish.

We used to use a ton of gitzit tubes. Always had the best luck on brown craw/green sparkles and leech. We used them on slider heads. While I prefer Mizmo Teaser tubes, gitzits will do the trick. I was on a local pond here near the coast yesterday and we had a few fish hit a quarter oz buzzbait, but they weren't really into the topwater action yet. Having fished the New for 26+ years, I'd say that it is indeed still too early for a decent topwater bite, but that's just my experience.

If it was the regular season, he would have had 3 minimum.

And artists always ask for these type of things. When I was in undergrad at a tiny WV school, we provided PBJs and a case a beer for a group of classical guitarists. Cocktails for a string quartet. This is just part of the game for securing people to perform at any venue.

I know Bill Cosby wrote so many things into his contract that it almost blew the VTU budget and demanded they were met or he would not come (custom sweatsuit, giant TVs for his performance, had to hang with Beamer before and after the performance, expensive items in his dressing room, etc.).

1 game suspension. I feel like that's right. Vicious hit but not so much that he should have been suspended for multiple games.

Dang that's a shame Gill is heading out of state. Played against him a lot growing up, would've been nice if he stayed in VA, ie Blacksburg. I guess if he went to Duquesne, he doesn't care much about staying local tho.

Great, it has been on/off whether we would get a visit from Holden.

Some competition for our last spots. Assuming Wilson makes the football team, we have three spots open. Looks like we are reportedly pursuing:

Transfers: Holden, Savon Goodman, Terrell Allen, Dayon Griffin, Evan Maxwell, and maybe L.G. Gill (Gill has chosen 5 visits and VT ain't one of them, probably end up at Texas with Shaka)
2016: Antwan Walker, Alpha Diallo
2017 (we will have at least three scholarships from Allen, Leday and Hamilton): Raiquan Gray, Jerald Butler

...and maybe more.
