Ditto, Dont be afraid to fish dirty water without them also.

Awesome Congrats!!

I'll do my best. I hope to fail at least once Dwight.

I'm headed out smallmouth fishing at Lake St Clair. I'm shutting down the shop for the week. You all have fun and catch some fish. I'll be back in action on Memorial Day. I'll post some pictures when I return.

Good Job!!! Congrats on the PB

Zara spook original here. I look at it like those little bluegills that some how get a 4/0-5/0 jig hook in their mouth.

Its amazing what a smallie can fit in that smaller mouth. J is right. Its usually the location that is different.

Nicely done!

Nice Rainbow!!!

Our local shops charge 100 an hr plus parts. I'm not very willing to push a boat.

A rattle trap. LOL Gene was my witness. So I give him partial credit for this. He was the one to tell me to fish a spinnerbait in 10 ft of water. I was lazy and had a trap on. Threw it out there and let it sink for about 10 seconds. Reeled it back and that is what happened. That is what I get for not listening to Gene.

I was. At first I said "I have the big bass in the bag". Then in about 5 seconds I thought " Wow this is going to be a nice catfish." We caught several. After about a minute or so I new I was a Drum major. It was about 8lbs 1oz if I remember right.

Here is the biggest drum of the Road Trip. I owned it. LOL

What do you think?

I fish them a lot on a shaky head. Typically I throw them on a 1/4 oz Zenith head. I caught quite a few of them on the road trip like this. My newly found bait for shaky heads is the menace. Both have a time and place.

Same thing I use.

Also if you have back lashed or looped it causing a kink or kinks those are week spots that will snap.

Very nice!!! Looks like alot of fun.

Those are some nice fish. Congrats.

This right here is what I typically recommend. The most expensive investment of making Jigs/spinnerbaits is the molds/lead pot/lead. You also have to buy the hooks in bulk to make it worth it. I do not like detering people but for the price of a lead pot, lead, and mold you can buy about 100-200 heads already made.

I wonder if its the different color shorts? Nice fish Big O.

Get better soon!!!!

Catch any fish there?
