Finesse Frogging... Going to change the game!
I pretty much leave frogs at home and use Ikas or senkos in places I used to throw frogs. People state often to throw a senko as a back up to a missed frog bite well just eliminate the frog to begin with. The smaller form lets the rig get in their mouth easier less missed strikes. Plus if one does miss, the ika will fall in place and bass comes back for it a lot of the time. I for sure hook into many more this way. In the pic this stuff I feel is better suited for lure that will drop in the open spots or a person can drag the ika on top still.

Polamar vs improved clinch. For flouro
The line isnt doubled over on itself its a single strand put through the eye twice. Now what you mention doubling the line over I use for my nanofil line. Will double the line over and then go through the eye twice to 6 turn uni knot. My 6# nano will hold to 9# and my 8#nano will hold to 12# with this doubled over knot.

Polamar vs improved clinch. For flouro
I have 10-12-16# sniper too and use the fishnfool knot but with 6 turns for all line braid fc. If you have ever bought Power Pro line, in their manual, they say to use this knot for stronger connection- through the eye twice 6 turn uni knot.

Light lure baitcaster ?
A ned rig is easily thrown with an SV105. Total weight pictured of 1/20 shroomz head and 2.75"trd is .059g + 3.9g =3.959g right at .126ounces or 1/8 total. Using braid I skip this with the SV105 easily.
- New PB!

Where are all the Illinois Guys ?
I got this 3# today I got a couple nice jumps out of it as well. The second jump was a good 2+ feet out of the water and put a big smile on my face. A passerby took notice and even said "wow that flew out of the water".

What do you do with your line after a day of fishing?
With braid I just use hook holder on rod leave it ready for next outing. With fluorocarbon I cut lure/hook off, reel in the rest of the line onto spool. I will tie knot fresh next outing. I feel the knot gets worse with FC line the longer its tied.

Line breaking on hookset
I had that happen 2 weeks ago 1st time ever. I just so happened to tie my knot differently on that hook. I usually pass line through eye twice to a 6 turn uni knot. Well I only passed it through once on the hook that slipped out. I set hook and pop lost lure. Examined end of line and knot was there with the small loop at end. Maybe I got in hurry and didnt cinch it down tight enough

Help me decide on spinning reel!
I absolutely feel my stradic doesnt do anything better than my president. My president sure click bail is better than the bail system on my stradic. I have a Supreme XT too but only paid $75 for it new not sure I would pay full price for that given how well I like the president. Just not much distinction between spinning reels to me for justification to spend $$$ for higher priced ones.
