and i also just got this setup so when should i use it?

6'6 Fenwick spinning rod with a Daiwa tournement edition spinning reel...with 15 lb stren super braid Rod power? That probably isn't enough rod to drive a hook through plastic and then through the fish's mouth. Burley is probably right... That's the only thing I can come up with besides a bad hookset. i think i am getting a new setup should i get... 6'6 Fenwick eagle gt Medium 6'6 Fenwick eagle gt Medium/Heavy 7' Fenwick eagle gt Medium 7' Fenwick eagle gt Medium/Heavy and would the medium/heavy take away from the sensitivity?

Oakley polarized gascans 8-)

great action....fish love um, but let me know what you think

6'6 Fenwick spinning rod with a Daiwa tournement edition spinning reel...with 15 lb stren super braid

agreed....here in Minnesota that would be the state record by a lb

I just got some 7.5" Yum ribbontail worms and T rig them with a 4/0 hook....i went out this morning and had some big hits including the biggest bass ive ever had on my line....but all 3 of the big ones spit the hook....am i using to small of a hook for this worm or is it just bad luck?

x2...i just dont have the confidence in it either to fish it regularly

most my luck has been near shallow structures, but i have had descent luck on tonka with dropshotting.....try going out to about 10-15 feet depth and using this technique you might get a few

I love the Storm kickin minnow....its got great action, but wears down easily. For $3.99 thought you cant go wrong http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?id=0037358121158a&navCount=19&podId=0037358&parentId=cat601348&masterpathid=&navAction=jump&cmCat=MainCatcat20166-cat601348&catalogCode=QZ&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat601348&hasJS=true

sooo ur saying go with the shimano?

I am looking for something that will help me with backlashing but still will cast a mile...which one out of these two would be better? or if theres something ranging from $70-$100 that you think would be a good fit for me let me know Thanks

http://images.cabelas.com/is/image/cabelas/s7_122482_renderset_02?$main-Medium$ Has anyone used this lure yet? its only $4.99 so i got one online...just wondering if people have had success with it. I know its more for northerns and muskies, but just thought i would get ur opinions

what size hook should i use? and right now i am using a bullet weight is that good?

i just purchased two bags of the 4" grubs (shown below). i texas rigged it and threw it a few times but it had no action. Can anyone tell me what i am doing wrong? Or how exactly you fish this bait? Thanks http://images.cabelas.com/is/image/cabelas/s7_121236_renderset_01?$main-Medium$

I feel your pain about losing that fish....i am an avid muskie fisherman and at the end of the last year i lost a 50+ muskie because my liter snapped, but thats what keeps you going out to try and get her again

just got into it as well....my first cast with a booyah jig/chunk trailer i caught into a 4 lbs largemouth....Gotta love it.. Also when/where is the best time to use jigs?

I was just at cabelas and they said that i should try the weight that looks like a pencil bc it doesnt get caught up as much...do you guys use this type of weight? where can i find it? If you dont let me know what in your opinion is the best weight and size. Thanks

yep...i have the chartreuse one. It produces some huge hits but i only seem to get the fish in the boat 1/3 the time....i dont make it weedless anymore because i was always losing them, just remember to be patient, and wait a second after the hit then set it.

i dont have any BPS in Minnesota :/ only Cabelas....i guess i could buy it online, but i would kinda want to check it out first...Any others?

I am upgrading my baitcaster setup within the week and need to get some of your opinions on what to get...i already am set on the rod, which is a fenwich eagle GT (ive always fished fenwick). I am looking for something that has a good breaking system and is a easy and long caster with braided line. Also just needs to be a good quality reel that i can use for years. Price range: $60-$80 how is the Shimano Coriolis?

haha thanks i will

I went out the night after and i think i got the one i missed...this is a 20.5 in 5 lbs Minnesota hog

probably already been said but morning and night are the best times....cast under docks, trees, and shaded areas...Also retrieve slow and wait a second after the hit to set the hook

How expensive are they? i buy the Yamayoto (or w/e) ones and they set me back
