smallieking

1/8 ounce jigheads with either 3inch grubs or 3inch beavers

they look awesome but have u tried them yet? how do they run?

i really like scents for all lures soft or hard i mix scents together then add some salt and other stuff and i really get a good formula for hard baits i like the old mann's 4220 rub in it works great im not sure if they even make it any more

i do all the time i will open a bag and just use them then just throw the rest in a box it doesnt hurt them at all they lose a little scent not much if u are concerned about that just give the bait a quick spray with your favorite scent formula

opps your right here is the right link my mistake im sorry http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1203395294/0#0

at my local gander moutain tuba tubes are 1.50 for a pack which is really cheap they dont look bad but i dont think they have a good fishing catching scent i dont know just wondering if anyone has ever used them and how they like them thanks

o cool i like using rogues just dont have alot of success on them do u know of the natural forage in the sus? i know craws but is there shad in it?

just keep all your presentations simple and natural remember that smallies love craws so try using craw presentations alot too

i dont think it matters i do like the color of the bleeding bait tubes but i dont like strike king's attractant smell formula i make my own bleeding baits and they work pretty good for smallies

hey brett where do u buy your lucky crafts? the closest i know of is is at BPS in harrisburg just wondering because usally i cant get easy access to them

yea sounds like fun maybe make a small little tournament out of it or something

o really im going to the sus in may for the first time i keep hearing good things about it i cant wait im going with my neighbor and using his boat so i will be limited on the tackle i can take whats your favorites for that river?

lol yea i know when is the live weight ins?

YUP CJ hit it on the head i actually just read an article about turning the eyelid so the bait will go to the right or left so that u can crank a weededge better

o ok yea i have never fished that river off a boat lol yea talk him into it i would llike to get more information on fishing them

everyone picked stroggins but he isnt doing great and my closes guest was rojas who is currently 4th

hmm yea i was thinking a c-rig would be a pretty good bait for them too i need to find some this year how can u tell a good one from a bad one?

mine is never ready there are always a few baits out there that i can always find a spot in the box somewhere lol but for the most part im ready for 08!!!!!

YEA skip i like your thought process tubes tubes topwater letal combo but yea like brett said u need different presentations in your arsenal as well Brett what type of jerkbaits do u use? ive used the husky jerk and x rap both produced but not like i want them too just wondering if there is a secret bait or technique out there that i dont know about

yea im hoping that we get some warm weather pretty soon im sick of winter

usally i wait to see where the fish are then cut the length but if im just pitching it blind its usally close to 36 inches

aaa there was alot of ice on it im quite dissappointed well i did find some deep water where the feed river dumps in but no baits o well i guess i will have to wait just a few more weeks for ice out

o really? the guys on bassmaster are predicting record breaking fishing im from PA so if i think of florida i think of frogs and big fish wow im way off well who do u think will have a good tournament?

im at work right now and get off in 10 minutes and im hoping to go fish of the shore on a lake that should produce here in PA im just hoping that there is no ice on the water it was in the upper 50s yesterday and it was in low 40s today with alot of rain im expecting the water to be muddy and high but im really hoping there is not an layer of ice under all the rain water when i get back i will tellu guys how i did im very excited right now
