It's my favorite mono line that I have tried. It casts great and has good abrasion resistance. It is a monofilament and has a good amount of stretch, so it isn't as sensitive as flourocarbon or braided lines. Another option is Sufix Seige which is stronger and more abrasion resistant but has a little more memory and doesn't cast quite as well as Elite.

I don't know what bodies of water you fish, but the spawn around here is usually finished by mid April. In May and June the fish have already spawned and are just starting to move out into deeper water. With the weather we are supposed to have this weekend and next week, it should really get the bass biting.

Sure, I'll put her in the bucket next to all of the other fish I caught with a casting net. :

Picasso Shakedown, 1/8th oz. is my favorite size.

It's a good lure that catches fish and has quality components. You don't need more than a MH rod to throw it, unlike the bigger swimbaits. It has a pretty unique action that you can see in the video on this page: http://www.***.com/descpageSWMJACKALL-JG.html Overall I would recommend it.

I think it has more to do with the amount of fishing pressure than the water clarity. Bodies of water with a lot of pressure usually get hammered by crankbaits with rattles, and if you go there and use a crankbait without rattles you can do very well. I'm not saying you won't do well using a crank with rattles, but I think bass shy away from them after a certain point. The only time I think rattles are important to use are when the water is extremely muddy.

Owner ST-36 Trebles are the best out there IMO.

EJ didn't leave much to say other than we have the highest gas tax in the USA Our governor gets elected and goes on VACATION And we have some of the best collages in the world, like Duke and State and if you want to become an Attorney you can go to Carolina. ;D The only Black town in the USA incorporated by free slaves ( Freedom Hill ) And then they have ME what else could you ask for. : Our Gasoline Tax is 13th highest, (but still too much): http://www.api.org/statistics/fueltaxes/upload/GASMAPJAN2009.pdf

The Kanami baits aren't cheaper, you just get less per bag for less money. I use a Curado E7, G Loomis MBR783 GLX, and 12 lb. Berkley 100% Fluorocarbon. I'm going to try out Sunline Sniper FC this year and see if I like it.

i did not see anywhere they say free shipping on rods where does it say that ia'm missing that part If the order is over $50, you get free shipping. Rods are included.

My friend has the 7 ft. MH model and I've fished it a few times. It's a decent rod for the money IMO, the sensitivity isn't great, but it has good backbone.

I bought a couple packs of Baby Mad Pacas to try out later in the year. I haven't fished them yet, but they look like they will be a good bait.

They're my favorite soft plastic worms to fish on a shakey head, and they're also great on a Texas rig or drop shot. Roboworms are hand poured and they have great action. I like the 6" Straight Tail in Green Pumpkin Neon or Warmouth the best.

The jig trailer you choose will have a big impact on the jig's fall rate. A trailer with a big profile will create more resistance and cause the jig to fall slower. If you want a slow fall, try a light weight jig (1/4 oz. or so) with a GYCB Flappin Hog or Berkley 4" Chigger Craw.

My favorite is the Talon Hardball Finesse Jig: http://talonlures.com/hardballfinessejig.aspx

My favorite tackle shop is only 2 or 3 miles away. It is a mom and pop shop that has a great selection of tackle. It's owned by nice people that greet you when you walk in. I like it better than any of the big chain stores.

Try some flat sided cranks and suspending jerkbaits. They seem to produce a lot better than soft plastics this time of year.

My favorites are Dave's Tournament Tackle and Terminator. Booyah has the most votes? :-?
