Heavy Flourocarbon
Awesome thanks guys gonna give the xps a shot next I think if they ever have it in stock : P, and the problems I had with most of them were memory and poor abrasion resistance I just snapped off 2 fish Saturday on the red label in open water one was at the knot ( probably my fault ) and the other was about 5 feet from The rod tip with about 30 yards of line out doubt I had a nic way up there but I guess you never know. Ty guys for the advice

Question About Jigs
Vinny chase is dead on, I always have 2 jigs tied on black and blue with a black chunk trailer, and a watermelon candy with a crawfish trailer on 5/16 - 3/8 usually unless power fishing post spawn I will switch to 1/2 oz another tip that has helped me is using 15-20 lb flouro instead of braid, not sure which your using.

Beginner Set Of Lures
Everyone nailed it senkos are one of te the top producing lures in any water and yamamotos are very expensive but imho they work the best. And i wouldn't mess too much with crankbaits unless you have some sort of cover to work them in or you have a hard bottom for deep divers to grind. Open water cranking will not attract many strikes. With the shaky worms working them on a shakey head jig will get you bit in pretty much any water as well, tight lines man
-
Small Amount Of Tackle
Senkos in grn pumpkin, junebug, and cream black flake, 4" Assortment of shallow crankbaits mostly natural colors and a few chartreuse Roboworms, zoom trick worms, strike king 3x finesse worms, sticking with natural colors again, Jelly worms in grape color, And for terminal tackle 3/0,4/0 ewg hooks, weedless wacky hooks, shakeyheads and some bullet weights, and things for a Carolina rig. And probably a few buzzbaits and spinners.

Decreasing Hook % While Wacky Rigged
I haven't missed many fish with the gama hooks but it is very possible the ones that do shake it fast or pull out are from that guard getting stuck
-
Decreasing Hook % While Wacky Rigged
I have been using these hooks in 1/0 size for about 2 week now and I missed a few in the beginning but like j francho said just a reel set or easy sweep set works a lot better than a hard hook set. Sweeping really increased my hook ups and helped land the hook into more solid parts of the lip

Trailer On Buzzbait?
