Importance of wind direction ?
Thanks guys. I guess I should have worded it different. Fishing with wind out of the north is not a waste of time? It's just an old wife's tale?

Advice needed on fishing jigs
I want to start jig fishing for bass, but need advice. I assume I need a medium/heavy action rod? What about line test? I use spinning rods/reels. I tried yesterday with a medium spinning rod, and it didn't seem stiff enough. Do you work the jig similiar to a worm? Thanks for any advice.

flat vs V opinions needed
I've owned both types and would never go back to a V-hull. I love the stability of my 48" wide floor. Of course a V-hull takes choppy water better. But if the water's too rough, I don't go out.

? for inflatable raft owners
Do you transport your raft inflated, or do you inflate it at the lake? If at the lake, what do you use? A pump that works off the car battery? I'm thinking about buying a small raft, but I know nothing about them. Is there any website where I can learn more about rafts? Thanks.

Need help on inflatable boat choice.
I understand about the price. Is it also the light weight of the inflatables you like? Have you considered a used canoe, kayak or small jon boat?

night fishing
I've found they can be caught in pretty shallow water at night. Literally in 1' of water throwing at shoreline cattails, etc.

Night Fishing???
My favorite lure for night fishing is the Jitterbug. The slower you work it the better. It's easy to say, but don't set the hook until you feel the weight of the fish.

What's the difference in these 3 Zoom worms ?
The trick worm, finesse worm and swamp crawler. I was looking at these on the Bass Pro website, but I can't tell how they differ. I know the trick worm is pretty skinny. Are the other 2 fatter, heavier? Thanks.

Yes, you need a deep cycle battery. Your battery charger will be fine, but don't leave it on too long.
