the banjo minnow is a topic that the moderators frown upon for some reason, they will eventually lock this post so no one else can reply.

Powell 765, there affordable, sensitive, lightweight, and strong. Definitely check them out.

Kinami is a branch of GYCB so the senko and the flash are essentially the same thing, but for my favorite(wacky rig) i prefer the senko.

I like a weightless wacky rig with a gamakatsu wide-gap finesse hook, how about you? :-?

I'll tell you what, after all of that rain, good luck even getting to the river ;D!!!

I've heard a lot about them but never used them, anyone else fish with them?

alright, thanks.

I have caught all kinds of freshwater fish, but i have never caught a gar!!! >, i know it sounds odd, but i actually want to. Any pointers?

yup, there is actually a company called Redneck's catfish bait soap, it has added flavors and stays on the hook for a LONG time making it perfect for jugs and trot-lines, the website is www.catfishbaitsoap.com

Has anyone used these swimbaits? if so what do you all think, is it a good buy? :-?

I'm in the market for a new finesse rod, the rod will be used for shaky head, wacky rigs, drop shot, and weightless worms. i have looked at the dobyns savvy series, they look pretty nice. what are some other options that you would recommend? :-?

No matter what you use for a "jug" always use circle hooks to hook fish with less effort, some great bait options are - live bait (bluegill,goldfish, shiners,or creek chubs) -raw, shelled shrimp -chicken breast -ivory soap -cut bait (any bait fish cut up into pieces) hope this helps you out.

gamakatsu wide-gap finesse hooks size varies

well, i broke my finesse spinning rod yesterday, so when i got home i started looking at TW for a new rod, what do you guys thing about the savvy series, never used a dobyns, but they look nice.

ABSOLUTELY I've fished jigs for several years and bar-none the 1/4oz black bitsy bug tipped with an uncle Josh's black and blue phantom finesse craw(hint) has caught 99.9% of my jig fish, they are great.

soak them in salt water overnight to get out any bugs, then coat them in ranch dressing, and roll them in cornmeal, then fry them in butter or margarine, oh goodness, i just made myself soooo hungry. ;D

yes, dry-land fish is just a nickname, sorry for the confusion.

Where are all the paylakers around here??!!!

Believe it or not, my most effective jig is a solid black,1/4 oz strike king bitsy-bug, with a black/blue uncle Josh's phantom finesse craw trailer.

I live in southern KY, had a pretty harsh winter but spring has sprung, may-apples are coming up, and i am ready to get out there and hunt some "dry land fish"

I shot one on Sat. of youth weekend here in southern KY. (i'm 14), that makes 4!! ;D

looks incredible!! 8-)

What do you guys think, i personally like the mattlures ultimate bluegill.

POWELL!!!!!!!!
