Hookset when Flippin very short distance
I always set the hook just like i would while casting(just a bit softer). I use braid so it doesn't take much when the fish only a few feet feet out.

Whats the point of split grips?
A bass rod, especially a casting rod, should never ever come with a foregrip. Like a Steez ? 8-) Naaaaa, he was talking about my G-Blanks ;D I am sure it was Powell he was referring to!!!! :-X

Powell 735mh
I have one as my designated frog rod. It is an AMAZING stick man! The Powell rods over 7ft are really under rated too. It is labeled MH but is more like Heavy. It has the backbone of a flippin' stick but with a softer tip. I can launch a Spro frog or Rage Tail Toad a mile! It can also double as a jig/worm rod for fishing cover. You will not be disappointed with it. Look at this link at TW, open the link to the site's review of the 735 frog rod. http://www.***.com/descpageRDCPOWELL-PCFR.html

Fall Transition
Don't even get me started on this summer! It has been the weirdest i have had on the water in a while! The fish did not display behaviors familiar to other years. We found them shallow when they should have been deep and vice versa. There were some really good fish taken this year though. Can't wait to see what the fall will be like!!!

Punch skirt and hooks
Why is that so hard to believe!?! If you are on the right body of water and you got the know how than it is VERY possible! Just because it doesn't happen for you doesn't mean it cannot happen!

Muddy's New Adventure
Not very hard to do really! The new Revos are pretty fugly IMO!

Stanley Ribbits
Oh no, not on the bottom! It is an 1/8oz hook with the weight right under the eye of the hook. It is for casting distance mainly. Also, when a fish misses you can stop it and it will fall slowly with the weight. Most of the time they will come back for it. I use a steady retrieve mainly.

Whats the point of split grips?
A little more vibration/sensitivity a bit less weight and a lot more S E X Y!!!!

When i use to throw these frogs i used the weighted hook from Stanley made for the Ribbits in 4/0 and it was the perfect match.

punching mats/grass with a jig
A jig is not the ideal bait for punching mats! A T-rigged craw(like the 4" Chigger Craw) is a much better choice. Also, you may want to step up to a 1oz or more Tungsten flippin' weight for better penetration.

this is just nuts
The average for most low pro bait casters is over 7oz! I am amazed by people who think that 1oz matters in a reel!!! Guess they can't all be Steez or Cores!
