Favorite Set-Up
I'm gonna have to bite too, and say my favorite is my 6'9" MH x-F BPS Carbonlite paired with my BPS PQ 7.1:1 spinnerbait set-up. I also have it spooled with 14lb or 17lb Stren MagnaFlex; depending on the cover, water clarity, ect. Im fishing that day. C-K

Favorite Set-Up
Hey Y'all, I know that when most of us go fishing... we got a mess of rods on the deck, and each one has its place. Just curious, which one out of that whole tangle of poles do you like using the most? and Why? What kinda rod, reel, line make it up, and why do you like using it so much? C-K

Favorite Topwater lure
Super Spooks.. Hands down. I like them because you can fish em fast, slow, aggressive, and quiet. They cast a mile, and accurately. As for colours, foxy shad, okie shad, and florida bass The lure i love the most... foxy shad... but you could barely tell... gone through atleast 6 pairs of triple grips, and the thing is beat to all hell with teeth marks, hook marks... etc. If it still walks.. it aint coming off my line.

working shallow buzzbaits
i always use buzzers early in the morning... sun barely up.... and in regards to where to throw it... anywhere you think fish will be holding. Its pretty weedless so huck it in the thick stuff. And if your fishing wood, docks, etc., run the lure right into the cover, make more noise. Finally... have confidence... convince yourself that you'll catch fish on the lure, but dont be afraid to change if you come out of it empty handed.

Zoom Tiny Brush Hog
hey guys.... quick question, i know the Zoom Tiny Brush Hog is optimal for dropshotting... but if one were to want to use it for flippin' and pitchin', or for some swimmin', would you have to use a 1/0 hook... or could I get away with a 2/0 without losing any action? Thanks, CanadianKid

Treble Hooks? Red Eye Shad
^ What that guy said. Atleast I have Triple Grips on all my rattlebaits and topwaters. They hook and hold fish like no other treble hook out there. I like to use the KVD Short Shank on my rattlebaits... and the reg. ones on my topwaters.

Need Some Suggestions.
Hey guys, I know there have been alot of posts about topwater lines on this board, but I got one more for ya! I have always used 12lb Stren Original for my topwater aplications and it has worked amazing for me. However, it absrobs water like a sponge. I have tried using wax, and chapstick to keep some of that line floating, but its annoying to have to keep re-applying it every 30 or so casts. Was thinking about going to Fireline, but I have had bad experiences with Berkley line in the past and I still want some of that line stretch you have with mono. Was wondering if I could get some suggestions in choosing a line that has the characteristics mono has, but floats in the process. Any ideas?

Spinnerbait/Crankbait line
Spinnerbait rod I use 14lb. Stren Extra Strength, and for my Crankbait rod its 14lb (shallow running baits), or 12lb (deeper running baits) Stren Original.

All those that use reels and or rods under $100
Reels- BPS PQ's, Carbonlite -- can't go wrong with those at the price they're at. Rods- BPS CarbonLite, and Abu Garcia Vendetta -- again, a steal at the prices.
