  1. Second poor boys tubes
  2. I picked up some lure parts online bill lowen backstroke swim jigs heads. Paired them with some dirty jigs skirts. I stick to pure white, white/chart, and blk/blue/purple. I like 1/4 size paired with single tail grub. For a bigger bite I'll go to keitech, skinny dipper, paca chunk etc.
  3. Hello, i have some roboworm rebarbs in 1 and 1/0 that I use to Texas rig weedless drop shot 4-6 inch worms. What is a good brand and size to nose hook baits?
  4. Trying to decide. Found some 1/16 and 1/8 weighted screw locks. Need to decide if 4/0 or 5/0 will be better?
  5. We all know MH and H is subjective to manufacturers etc. For instance, I have a M power St Croix that goes up to 3/4. In some GLoomis models, that may be an H etc anyways.... i was set on buying a Shimano Zodias H to use for flipping and pitching jigs and for football jigs. Mainly use 3/8 and 1/2 ounce jig or Texas rigs. Wood cover. Sparse grass. No mats no punching. Was going to use 20 pound fluro. The rod is rated for 1/2 - 1.5 now the MH the MH is rated 3/8 - 1. Seems like it may fit the bill better? Both same length. Same handle. And both fast actions. Thinking the MH could also double as a Spinnerbait or swim bait Rod. Guess it's just subjective to the company
  6. Optima baits boom boom swim bait rat l trap new top water strike kings new offerings double plopper seems to be a pretty good year to me
  7. Frogging = veritas anything else = ghost
  8. Anyone with this reel use it for dedicated flipping and pitching? Really love the way it palms. Since the reel has a low line cap what are you using for line? id really like to use 18-20 pound fluro but may have to use braid and tie a leader. I know I could get a 200 series but really like how the 70 feels on a flipping stick.
  9. I have found success flipping their craw tube.
  10. Looking for a dock/wood flipping and pitching Rod. Normally use 18-20 pound fluro. Also would double as 1/2 - 3/4 football jig Rod for deeper water. Anyone have experience? Seem like a good fit for my intended purposes?
  11. I like strike King first and Eco pro second.
  12. I had been bait monkey less since February. Wife was pregnant with twins and frowned on me fishing. Twins were born healthy in May. Now that we are getting the swing of this parenting thing I have eased back into fishing a little bit. She evens encourages it a bit as we all need a break from time to time. i took advantage of the TW sale. Picked up megabass diamanté topwater, swim jigs from strike King and Gambler. Yum dingers and Christy critters. A few 6xds. Spinnerbait from war eagle and booyah. Bone white kvd spit n topwater. Reaction innovations pocket rocket. Rage swimmers and some ocho stick baits after seeing the elites at Cayuga killing them. Some zoom mag trick worms and some dye . Also want to try some cork sealer on my rods. Finally a few pieces of terminal tackle and tungsten
  13. I mostly used used RI beavers but lately the $3/ pack YUM Christie critters are a good bang for your buck. Like black and blue. Your choice?
  14. Looking for a finesse swim bait head. 1/8 or so. Seems like everything has too big of a hook etc. Any ideas?
  15. Anyone use these? Are they more for swimming a worm or for darting on the bottom? what plastic do you use ?
  16. Reading the report on his win said he caught a few on a new strike King bait called the half shell. Anyone know anything about it?
  17. Have some KVD magics in transit as well. Think they will be killer on a swim jig or Chatterbait come fall.
  18. Don't have any currently in the box. Do you fish similar to a pop r/walk the dog or more like a rip/Jerkbait motion? What brands and colors do you like?
  19. White for me as well and green pumpkin. I like to use a smimn sinko trailer
  20. Kvd flat side 1.5 spro little Johns
  21. Loomis e6x 843 MBR. Shimano curado I 14lb sunline j will swimbait heads
  22. I know $250 is a pretty price for a set of glasses. But to me I'd rather not have to full with is this a legitimate pair or not. Only order from authorized retailers. Same goes for high end rods and reels.
  23. Rapala but not sure of the name or what it is. Most seem to thank it's a spy bait. Missle football jigs smaller jackall gantarel swim bait. Few new Shimano offerings.
  24. When do you throw the following.... shad or white colored green pumpkin bluegill black and blue shades of white with a white trailer is what I throw 90% of the time. I guess I feel if the water is stained I'm better off with a spinner bait. Do you have success with the other colors above?
