I couldn't find any, I had to start making my own.

We have an area specific thread in the central forum for KC members. I've fished with several people just by posting an open seat there.

blade baits, they make sense and I have confidence in them, but I bet I haven't caught 10 bass on them. I watch YouTube videos, ask questions to knowledgeable guys on here that have success with them, I'm determined to make them work. I fish all winter and catch them on jigging spoons and flutter spoons, I know they'll eat a blade bait.

The stack was going all day and the flat north of the outlet was the warmest water in the lake by a few tenths of a degree, no idea what exactly was going on.

Pretty sure my Garmin's have it but I'd have to check.

I think it would work a lot better to post on the local forums. If someone is available to go fishing but lives 3 states away, it doesn't do much good.

La Cygne was weird yesterday. Outlet was 47, bluff was 52, dam was 47, ramp was 49, bite was nonexistent. Caught a few whites and one largemouth that went 4.74.

Sweeps set is good but make sure to lube it up with a slippery scent like megastrike to help it slide through the fish's teeth easier.

The leg skirts might get gummed up or the hooks may rust, but they won't just fall apart for no reason. The senkos will be fine as long as they're dry and not stored with a hook in them. If they get used up you're not going to have much choice but to switch baits?

Little cleos or a micro jig under a bobber.

The sooner the better. I'd cast at them as they came out of the truck if I could. They're hungry and dumb as they're getting dumped into the lake. That's why our lakes are usually closed for a week after stocking so they aren't all caught too fast. One lake doesn't close and I pulled into the marina minutes afte they dumped them. We caught over 60 in a couple hours before we had to leave, it was nuts.

I've done well on a homemade bladed jig in pink and chartreuse, specifically on one local lake that has pretty clear water.

1 mold, 1 head at a time.

They're a pain. I poured and painted about 200 of them a couple months ago, all 1/16oz. Hopefully won't need to do it again for a few months.

Give a little more heads up and and post it on the KC area thread and I'm sure someone will take you up on it.

I'll send you a couple powder painted ones if you want to see if they're something you could use.

I go with the lightest I can get away with in most situations, except for jig fishing.

I don't worry much about the scents on my baits. Put them in the right place and they'll catch fish.

There's actually 2 of them on the boat with me, but my older dog doesn't care at all about the fish.

Type of reel has nothing to do with it, it's all about technique I'm using for me.

I love a good jig bite.
