how does the bite feel (using worms)?
Yeah bass fishing is tough but thats part of the fun; finding out how to catch them that day. For me, when I fish a worm its weightless and texposed. I keep a semi tight line at all times while its falling and when I know it hit bottom i give it a jerk or two and then lift it up and let it drop again.

Introducing myself and a question!
I personally wouldn't recommend swivels. I would tie an albright knot with braid to mono. I think you lose sensitivy with a swivel. Also try fluorcarbon almost invisiible underwater

Carolina Rig Tips Take II

Pay $$$ to fish??
Some places are paying just for launching and stuff. Others are paying just to fish. There are a few that when you fish there and if you want to keep the fish, you have to pay per lb.

Hmm... I changed my mind on buying them. If they were a little smaller than probably but Not many 8lb+ bass in Illinois. State record is 13. If you catch a 5 lber here its a pretty nice obass.
