Storm Pre Rigged Soft Swimbaits
I use them and have caught some nice fish and I hooked into 2 monster fish on them. When I fish with my girlfriend she likes to use these a lot. I use a yo yo technique and a steady retrieve when fishing them. They catch fish and are durable good inexpensive way to start if you are getting into swim bait fishing

It's That Time
Nice pics & fish! I see you had your son with you for atleast one of your trips. My son is about to be 2 in June I can't wait til he is old enough to go fishing with me and really understand it. He knows what a bass is, can identify it when. I show him a pic but then again he prob thinks all fish are bass at this stage lol. Again nice fish and pics, what where you catchin em on?

Hooks
Yea I use 4/0 EWG hooks for some of my worms and use 4/0 or 5/0 offset hooks when I am Texas rigging (the 5/0 for my bigger senkos and lizards) When I am fishing big worms like 10"- 12" I use a bigger hook 6/0 or 7/0. I bank fish a lot as well so I generally bring just what I am going to use at that spot, leave the rest in my car, so I am traveling light... Sometimes that backfires like yesterday when I was at a frog spot and saw a big female on a bed I had nothing to entice her with cuz I left it behind.

Braid Question
Yea you can put braid on basically any reel. I have it spooled on couple of my spinning reels, higher end ones, and am going to get it spooled on my baitcaster once I get more comfortable with it, I am urgently using a Abu Garcia silver max. I use 30# power pro and yesterday spooled up 30# power pro super slick. I have used the super slick before and not until yesterday I was a believer with its caring distance when my buddy was basically throwing it the whole football field while I was barely getting it past the 50yd line lol.

Weeds On Lures
I'm not sure how much of a factor it has but I always clean off my lures. When ishing cranks and stiff like that I feel it takes away from the action but that being said if a bass wants the lure it's gonna take it regardless of how it looks

Writing On Your Crankbaits?
Haven't done if but thought about doing it. I mainly throw squarebills so depths are generally the same. I have a few deep diving cranks that I have no idea what the depths are so I wish I didn't it with them.

When You Have An Awesome Fishing Trip With Many Bass Caught Do You?
I look at my pics after a good day fishing and post them to my Instagram (FISHtagram) page. But to me I would rather have a couple big fish then catching a ton of smaller fish

When Do You Change Your Senko?
When it starts to slide down the hook or when it doesn't resemble a Texas rig it's time to go onto the next one... I am real OCD about mine so it takes a hit on my pockets!! Fortunately frog and crank season is here in Jacksonville so my pockets can get a little fatter

Frog Colors
As somebody said different conditions/situations call for different colors. General rule I tend to do is "match the hatch" try to get colors similar to the type of frogs you see at your local waters. But then again I have never seen a black frog and that is my go to frog color, when fishing my soft plastic frogs.
