MARSH MASTER

Hands down a senko. It can be dead sticked very slow. It can be T-rigged or c-rigged. You can also work it like a jerk bait or fluke. Just add weight to it and it will go as deep as you want through ANY cover there is. Wacky rig it you name it the senko is the most versatile bait there is. Can I get a amen?

TRAILER HOOK

I wouldn't worry about the temp changing that little bit. I would check the pressure.

Go to the other lakes catch those fish and release them in that lake closest to you. eventualy you will catch those fish again.

Nothing beats flipping or pitching a Rage craw or jig into the thickest bush. I mean the places most people wouldn't think to place a bait. Next would be draging a weightless senko across a thick mat and letting it fall into the holes.

my buddy was having the same excact problem a few weeks ago. look at the space you have from the belly of the bait to the belly of the hook it has to be greater then the thickness of the bait. i recomend 5/0 flipping hook or bigger

To me jig fishing is no different then t-rig. Don't get caught up in a bunch of colors keep it simple match the surroundings with like watermelon or pumpkin. For real stain water black and blue. I will throw huge in the nastiest of places. I will use a 3/4 football jig and throw it in the middle of a bush. I like banging that big head off the sticks. I also always use rattles with a rage craw trailer because I feel it moves more water. Jmho

Very nice build it realy stands apart. RM all this hype about the NFC blanks has me holdin out also.

When you fish Rage Tail hold on!

check out rod building tutorials.com under grips and seats. I've done it and it not that easy.

I did paint under the wraps that is a pencil mark I didn't catch till later.

The rod was a falcon origanal that I rebuilt. The only thing I didn'y change was the guides. I put a new real seat a turned the eva grips and put a whole lot a time in it. The only thing I don't like about the rod is the guide wraps they look like ole school tube socks.

I just finish this rod for a freind so he better like it. The theme he went with is the colors of his allstar baseball team.

Just about any tackle shop will have what you need. all you need is thread and some finish opoxy.
