I have the jig/worm rod and the spinnerbait/worm rod. I really like the jig/worm rod but I'm still a little iffy on the spinnerbait rod its a little flimsy.

yeah i do adjust it, I've always casted with quite a bit of thumb. I've been bass fishing for about 13 years now started when I was around 10 and these last 5 or so years i've been going 2 to 3 times a week and trying to fish a tourney every weekend i could. And this problem just started for me last year.

I just use regular fluro and mono. I'm not sure what the deal is maybe i just have weak thumb skin now after starting it last year. I've tried the surgical glove thumb idea but if any water gets under it just gets worse. I think i'm gonna try the xtreme glove sounds like a good idea.

I'm not talking about the bass thumb from the fishes mouth. Mine happens from just stopping my baitcasters with my thumb. I just checked out the xtreme gloves and I think I might like the 2 finger one and it should work well for my problem too. thanks AJ

It started last year from me. When i would go out a layer of skin would rub off my right thumb and I kept on happening. I would wear a glove on it some and that would help but i didn't like doing that. This year I went out for the first time and I didnt' figure it would happen but it did. At points last year the skin would get so thin on my thumb it would start bleeding really easily. Does anyone else have this problem. If so what do you do to prevent it from happening?
