For the AVERAGE Guy - Rods and Reels
That's actually a slow year with only 66 days on the water; I normally log over 100 days on the water. I know everyone's first reaction Why don't you fish tournaments? I pick & choose my days on the water; tournaments aint always on the days I fish. I think that's proof positive it aint the tackle it's the angler ;D 80% of those fish were caught on a Texas Rig or Jig-N-Craw 8-)

What makes you PRO?
A lot of tournament trails rules state Pros: A Pro is defined as any angler that has entered more than one bass tournament that required an entry fee greater than $1500 Under this rule I've recently fished against Villis "Bo" Dowden Sr, Harold Allen, & George Gene Jr Not Pros? :

Straight shank vs. wide gaps
I've used straight shank hooks with plastics for 35+ years; my hook ratio is some where above 90%. My favorites are Mustad Denny Brauer Flipping Hooks If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you always got

Hooksets: Jigs and Worms
I read a study about the amount of pressure in foot pounds one exerts on the hook set. It was something like 12 to 18 foot pounds, rod length, and physical size of the person made little difference. Technique was what determined deepest hook penetration; with rod tip speed by using a quick snap of the wrists being #1.

Why buy something and worry about using it
You want to talk about hard on equipment; you can't see it in the picture but that big dude has my spinner bug in his mouth! Needless to say I don't think that is what Berkley had in mind when they named their line Big Game.
-
bass from France
Awesome, what kind of lure were you using?
-
Why buy something and worry about using it
This area is what we call 944; again you see the buck brush, along with another problem that can be hard on equipment. I don't worry about either!
-
Why buy something and worry about using it
Ya see the brush line in the back ground? That's buck brush; the bank is another 15 to 20 yards beyond that, which is what the bass on Toledo Bend spawn in. If you don't want your equipment scratched then go home!

Flippin stick question
Another thought to ponder is one physical stature At 5' 11 ¾ 188 lbs I'm very comfortable with 7' or 7' 2 flipping stick A buddy of mine at 5' 6 143 lbs is very comfortable with a 6' 8 or 6' 10 flipping stick
-
another epic "colors" discussion
Explain why pink, yellow, merthiolate, & orange work? I use a lot of blues and purples because they a visiable at deeper depths I agree with Rolo once the bass sees the lure, the importance of color falls through the cracks
