Roboworm
Roboworms are the best for shaky head and drop shot!!! They are all I use BEST COLORS! The bright colors are great for slightly stained water.

What To Do When?
Me i'd personally fish points either a carolina rig or deep deep cranks! Lol just fished a tournament like this and those we the winning baits. I opted to fish the banks pitching a jig wrong choice but as gobig said it depends on the lake

First Try
Hello I am a freshman at Providence Catholic High School in New Lenox, Il. I have been fishing ever since I could hold a pole and love it! My fishing partner and I Duke Hill completely turned the fishing team at our school around. Duke is a junior, also at Providence. Before we came into the picture our school had not even weighed a fish in at the sectional tournament, this year however we took second place with a weight of 14.37 lbs. Then we competed at the two-day state tournament. We took 14th out of 57 teams with a weight of 23 lbs. 2 oz. We just entered another tournament that we will be competing on lake Shelbyville. This tournament is expected to bring a big crowd so it will be a way for you and us to get our names out there. Duke and I love your products and are willing to support you in anyway possible! A sticker to put on our boat or hats we could wear would really help you in getting your name out there. Here are links to our interviews by the Chicago Sun Times http://southtownstar...laces-14th.html http://heraldnews.su...-of-finals.html http://heraldnews.su...l-in-title.html Thanks for your time!
