  1. Would a Denali 6'6 Medium Finesse rod be better?
  2. What pound test fluoricarbon should I be using?
  3. Just sprayed some Bait mate Max Garlic & Salt into the bag of grubs
  4. Any suggestions on hook sets for the stingray grub? I've had SEVERAL bites the last few days that I've missed and I'm using a 7 foot medium action Berkley cherrywood rod with fluorocarbon on a Pflueger Trion reel, what will happen is I will feel the light tap, I'll set it and then nothing......... I'm wondering if I put some scent on the grub they will hold it longer. The problem I'm having with it as well is deciding if I should leave the hook point exposed or in the plastic, the problem is when I leave the point exposed I hook all kinds of dead elodea and pond weed in the middle of the cast when I'm dragging the grub on the bottom. I was out on Friday at a community lake by my house and found fresh green grass out deep that the grub was snagging, and in turn was destroying my retrieve. At the pond by my house I have tried grubs, jerkbaits, spoons, jigs and all that happened is that I would snag the dead elodea. I'm a big senko fisherman and fishing past Early November until March is tough for me. I'm off school until 01/3 and I've made it my goal to catch AT LEAST one bass before then. What am I doing wrong? I'm fishing the grub slowly, just draging it ever so slowly along the bottom with the grub rigged on a Strike king football shakey head with the grub being the avocado color. I've also tried 1/2 ounce XPS silver blade baits and still snag grass every cast
  5. Anyone ever finesse fish with 20 pound fluorocarbon? And has anyone ever tried 20 pound line on spinning reels?
  6. Anyone ever try fishing a frog like a plastic worm? And has anyone ever tried Six foot popping rods or light action musky rods for frogging
  7. It just seems like all the rods he uses are like 6 foot rods for some techniques, but for example he likes a 5-foot graphite spinning rod for worm fishing, but one thing he says that I do kind of disagree with is that a graphite rod lets you cast farther
  8. How do you set the hook on a Stingray grub?
  9. Anyone? I'm starting to wonder because I always see or hear roland Martin using 5.5 foot graphite bait casting rods with either 14 or 20 pound test for worm fishing
  10. The reason I asked this is that I have read Roland Martins Book and he talks about finesse fishing with a flipping stick, so It made me wonder of anyone would flip with a finesse rod as a unconventional way of fishing like Roland talks about.........
  11. What's the heaviest/lightest rod and line you will use for finesse fishing?
  12. Anyone have any good tips on getting plastics through duckweed thats been blown right up against the shore by the wind and is thick and matted and dead? It's pretty thick and I'm using 50 pound braid?
  13. Does anyone know where I can get these colored little georges: - black one with red eyes - white, black top and orange belly model - chrome black - hammered chrome - Chrome with a black back Has anyone tried these around this time of year? And does anyone know where you can get the Super George
  14. What I was referring to is I Got my Powell 702 Rod for finesse fishing from TW and it seemed a little butt heavy, I;ve never had a but heavy rod before..
  15. Is a rod that has a heavy "butt" better or should the tip be the the part thats heavy?
  16. , a light rod that only weighs ounces or a balanced rod with the reel and rod weighing the same?
  17. What type of Grass do you see in this picture?
  18. Here a few 2500 sized reels I like, but the thing is, I was aiming for THE LIGHTEST combination possible http://www.sportco.com/store/pc/Tica-Libra-Sa-Spinning-Fishing-Reel-Sa2500-p47309.htm http://www.ecrater.com/p/11160832/shimano-ultegra-advance-c3000hg-fishing http://www.histackleboxshop.com/CLEARANCE-Daiwa-Fuego-A-Spinning-Reel-p/clearance-daiwa-fuego.htm
  19. So basically, you just add up all of those #s and if the equal 250 its a 2500 sized reel?
  20. http://www.hooksettackle.com/store/store_product_detail.cfm?Product_ID=5&Category_ID=32
  21. Would a California Tackle M-7 Spinning reel be a better choice?
  22. I have 3 days to decide which reel to get to go with this rod, so that my parents can buy it for me for christmas, they already got me the rod Yesterday from TW.
