Bass Afishinado

I bought an older MR - 9 and caught a ton of bass on it. At times it was the only thing I could catch them on. I got it hung up in a submerged tree and lost it. I just bought another - only major downfall - it doesn't cast very far because it is kind of a light bait. But has worked well for me in natural lakes in michigan.

Hey I have bunch of rust in the bottom of my plano tackle organizers, and a bunch of my worm hooks, tube jigs, and even some trebles on my crankbaits are rusted some minor some major. I am going to just replace the major rusted ones but is there any fix for the minor stuff? Rust in bottom of tackle org? How to prevent it? I was thinking of bleaching my tackle organizer to try and get rid of the rust in the bottom - good or bad idea? Any solutions would be welcome. Thanks

Thank you for all your kindness. I look forward to the continued communication and posts.

Hello, my name is Bill Lengemann. My brother (Jenga - Jack) introduced me to the site about a year ago, before our trip to Lake Erie. I have been reading the different threads intermittently, and decided to join so I could make a few posts here and there. I fish primarily around my hometown, Imlay City, and up north, but I have also been travelling the 45 min. south to Lake St. Clair as well for about 2 years now. Look forward to meeting many of you.

thanks for the suggestions - leaning toward the seagur invisx and see what happens

What is the best Fluoro line for spinning gear? Do you fill the entire spool with Fluoro when you use it like you would with mono?

I'm coming down to Toho in April. I primarily fish very clear lakes in Michigan with 6 - 8 lb. mono for Smallmouth. I use medium rod, spinning tackle. Will this work for Toho? What lb should I use. Any Baits I definitely need for this lake at that time? Any help would be much appreciated, I rarely fish for Bass south of the 45th parallel. Thanks

Great interview. Ike, eh. Good call he almost won it last year and is probably looking for redemption.

Great story about fellow Michigander KVD. Check it out on the Bass Master website. It's called Hooked. Count down is on for the Classic.

Hey Jenja - What difference does the spawn make. Last year you were struggling so much you threatend to sell all your gear on Craigslist. A smallmouth classic moment.

I am going to Disney for Spring Break (April 2 - 6) with the family and am looking to get one day of fishing in on Toho. Anybody around there who is looking for a partner for the day. I'll take care of gas, food, etc. Send me a pm if you're interested.
