Is It Just Me Or......
Is it just me or has the shimano posse been laying low? It seems there are far more Abu guys now. I remember when it was nothing but the posse ganging up bashing te few Abu guys and now it seems like it's mostly Abu and the shimano guys are keeping quiet.......

Revo S Vs. Revo Stx

Shaky Head Baits
What do you guys use on your shaky heads? I want to do more finesse fishing this year a iv stocked up on tons of shaky heads. Iv used them in the past with rage baby craws with really good success on smallmouth. I feel that's not really finesse with all the thump of a rage bait.

Flukes, How Do You Guys Use Them
Two that haven't been mentioned and are favorites of mine is to nose hook them on like a flick shake head and twitch them kinda Miletus jackall iShad but much cheaper ad more effective iv found. Secondy on a swim jig I tie a 18"-24" leader to the swim jig then put the fluke in the back rigged like you would rig it weightless just with the jig out front. Iv tried it on regular bottom contact jigs as well as the swim jig both ways caught fish on the fluke "chasing" the jig.

Revo S Vs. Revo Stx
I think they sell more of the S model is because it looks so d**n sexy on the veritas. My STX looks ok on the veritas and well all know it's mostly bout how good our combos look lol.

When Did You Start?
Yeah as far back as I can remember like serious conscious thoughts it's fishing or working on my dads drag car. I'm known by everyone for my love for fishing I fished every day as a kid my mom some could say bad parenting but I don't think so but she didn't have a sitter for me the river runs right next to the school I was like 8 seriously 8years old and would fish after school till she got home from work and picked me up or I'd walk home I had a little collapasable pole and would catch my own crawfish and use them for bait it was the life.

When Did You Start?
When did you start fishing? I see more and more guys saying they are just getting into fishing. So I'm curious at what age or point did you start fishing. Me my father said he had me at the river at 6months locked in the stroller with snoopy rod wedged in with me lol. I however don't remember that but I have seen pics of me and him fishing around 3 years and I remember fishing every other weekend with him during warm weather months. So iv been fishing pretty much my entire life and I'm 26. My boys Noah and Jack started young also Noah went for the first time shortly after his 2nd birthday and he will be 4 in May. Jack is starting this year Noah is excited to teach his little brother as am I an Jack nods and gets excited when asked but idk if he quite knows what it is yet though he reads my magazines well looks at the pics he's only 19months this month.

There is a kids fishing derby in June I'm hoping to get Noah in.
