what he said

i use 65 lb suffix braid with dingers. From my experience fireline frays way to easily and doesn't even compare to suffix.Id have to replace the fireline every 6 months, where as i've had the suffix on for over a year. I was able to pull a full size tree out of the mud with the 50 lb test. Im sold.

try fishing shallower. I was out the other day and it was pretty cold out(had 2 jackets on ) and the fish were jumping at dingers ripped across the surface. The deep bite produced nothing, but buzz something through the shallows produced every time...

I've been catching all my bass in under 4 foot of water. Ive been throwing spinnerbaits, dingers, and cranks with much success. Ive yet to get a bite in anything deeper then 4 foot..

everyones pretty much summed it up for you. i wear maui jims myself and love them
