Which is why I cringe when someone is tying a Palomar knot by making a loop & pinching it to pass it though the hook eye.

Isn't it true that once Fluorocarbon stretches it doesn't return to its original shape? A kink is "stretched" but only over a short distance. A dent doesn't weaken metal, a crease does. A kink in Fluorocarbon or Monofilament is like a crease to metal.

I'm looking for something new for when they ain't biting!

My thought exactly ?

Nahh that would defeat the purpose of Stanley.

Yeah pretty much Totally depends on the body of water. Marshes/swamps around here topwater can be productive all day. Most generally topwater down here is highly situational. I throw em all from the bank or boat. There's a few things in my repertoire I be like...nope y'all ain't getting that!

I carry one topwater, one mid-depth, & one bottom contact to start out but conditions usually eliminate one or two.

I throw what they eating! They quite eating it I'll quite throwing it!

One attack bag contains topwater, mid-depth, & bottom contact. The bottom has seven 3700 series storage boxes. Contents of both are determined by the body of water I'm fishing. I carry the attack bag with me the other stays in the vehicle. I usually carry 3 rod-n-reels

Japanese Carbon by Toray-Extreme High Modulus Helium avg. weight 3.5 ozs, pared with a Lew's Tournament Lite at 5.3 ozs I'm good to go.

Y'all need to expand your horizons! I throw Zoom's Trick Worm, Magnum Trick Worm, Magnum Finesse Worm, Zlinky Stick Worm. Bass Assassin Tapout Worm Wave Worm Tiki Stick

I Don't Care ? Ya didn't mention marshes or swamps! If it holds bass, I'm happy, happy, happy!

Ever handle a Kistler Helium?

Kistler Helium ?

That would be theory

Ya still gotta be able to prove it as the answer.

If you believe "Apophenia" is the answer please post your process for evaluating the different spinner baits and the statistical analysis of your results here so that we can peer review them. Bass are just weird! How to prove scientifically why bass do certain things is impossible.

Welcome to bass fishing! ? I've seen times color can make all the difference in world. I've seen times when color made absolutely no difference at all. I've seen times I had to change colors often to get bit. Like you said, "Bass are weird!"

What pulled up moss? How deep?

Congratulations ? It's on now!

Jig-n-Craw ?

Magellan Outdoors ? Same as the high dollar stuff but I got money left over for gas in the boat.

IDK! Japan or world wide, I don't care! Stateside probably a Senko but regionally would vary. Zoom's Ultravibe Speed Craw is extremely popular round here.
