My head was in the oven. Sorry A-Jay

Use this ~ It works well. A-Jay

Mustad has been making the SUPER DEATH ABERDEEN HOOK for walleye anglers for a long time. It's similar in design to what you've shown here and is made to SPIN a nightcrawler trolled at a slow speed. https://mustad-fishing.com/us/product/33863np?colorName=Black+Nickel&hookSize=2%2F0&packCode=10U I have been a big fan of the standard Gamakatsu EWG but for a stouter hook I have recently been liking this. https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Gamakatsu_G-Finesse_Hybrid_Worm_Hook_4pk/descpage-GFHW.html And it's not a spinner when rigged straight - A-Jay

Right back at ya ! A-Jay

Maybe I would send you some moles.... I have plenty and they just love grubs A-Jay

If you're using these to rig soft plastics, don't they cause line twist ? Seems a rigged bait would be forced to spin and spin and spin some more. A-Jay

Thank you my friend. Spoke to Lynn and her Nurse on the phone earlier today. They are taking great care of her and there's been some improvement. It's small and coming on slowly but that's how this deal works and I'll take anything good at this point. I didn't cry today. A-Jay

Lynn is 50. I'll be 65 in August. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

Thank you. How did you determine this ? Asking for a friend. A-Jay

Mono when fished regularly, has a pretty short life span IMO when compared to FC and of course braid. How long it last may depend on the quality, the usage and mabe how it's being used. But the price is decent so why wait to snap off your new PB to find out. Personally I'll end for end or change it once it's no longer performing like the day I spooled it up. A-Jay

When it comes to depth finder 'noise' I am not sure which way to lean. But isn't 'noise' the entire premise behind the infamous Hydrowaves fish attracting system. I'm not saying, I'm just saying. Personally I never really bought into that deal. A-Jay

Yup ! I didn't mention this because 95 % of the braid brigade on this forum would scream "that's BS." But we know. A'Jay

No doubt Mr Jones can use FFS. However, he is often fishing the hottest big fish lakes at the Prime time and just like rest of us, enjoys showing the world His Best Catches. I may not be as sharp as I was 10 or 20 years ago, but whatever I may lack in that department, I make up for in appreciation and gratitude for any and all plus size fish I manage to catch. Even with my antiquated technology. A-Jay

IME, if you need wire and you fish in clear water (I do), Use it. The fish will still eat your bait and you will not get bit off, Recent bass fishing trip hooked a pike and landed it . I was using AFW knotable wire which I show in the clip. Been using this same stuff effectively for Years. The below 2 SMB ate a jerkbait with a 20 lb AFW leader. Good Luck A-Jay

If the fish are large enough to get the bait inside their mouth and the hooks are decent, exposed some and sharp and you are missing the hookset; I would guess it's your 'timing' not your tackle. Either you're early , reacting to the splash, or late, asleep at the wheel. Sometimes feeling the weight of the fish before hitting it can help. Only takes a fraction of a second wait in most cases. Before you throw money at it, perhaps look at that. A-Jay

Thank you my friend. I. am trying to stay busy but the weight is heavy. A-Jay

Sudden and drastic down grade this morning. Liver function went in the tank. Renal failure. Transferred to ICU. Started dialysis. I am numb. A-Jay

Sounds like fun. Btw, it was 47 degrees here when I went with the dog this morning at 7 am. You can keep that heat thank you. 😎 A-Jay

I got a 10 spot that says the first time he tries to remove it. He still has to drive a screwdriver through it ! #beenthere

Nice ride Congrats A-Jay

That'll Do It ! A-Jay

That little stinker ate 2 of my rose bushes last night. A-Jay
