Bps Stik-O Worm
I'm sure they will catch some fish. At twenty cents a stick(50count bag @ $9.99) how could you be wasting your money? Green pumpkin/black flake would be a good choice.

For Those Who Use Backing...
Using a 300 yd spool of braid. I can spool four reels (75 yards ea.) and depending on usage and proper rotation that spool will last two to three years. To answer the op, I will get eight to twelve uses when using backing.

Best Line And Pound Test For Senkos And T-Rigs??
The exact line combo I used all of last year, except it was on a med/f rod. When I was Senko fishing. MH/F when t-rigging.

Winter Sucks
As of right now, opening day for the LP of Michigan is 91 days from now, April 25th. I mark the time by drawing an x for each day on the calender. Kinda makes me feel like a kid waiting for Christmas morning!!

How Much Soft Plastic To Carry On The Banks?
I wish I could just carry that much. I just finished paring down to, two and a half Plano 3600's with Senko's and imitators. Plus I carry a B.A.S.S. free tackle bag with plastics in it. I'm not sure I can do with much less!!LOL

Carp Fishing
I use canned corn all of the time, with one additive. I put the corn in a seal-able plastic bag, add fruit punch to it and then freeze it. This gives the corn a different taste and look. Catches both carp and catfish.

Just Plain Nuts!
All of my orders this year have used the smartpost delivery system. I will admit, tracking them can be quite amusing in regards to how they get from point A to point B. But the bottom line is if they are delivered on time. So far each has been delivered ahead of schedule.

Any One Try The Salty Sticks By Keitech?
Its a soft plastic stick bait. Durability is always a concern. I considered these last year, but choose to try the Netbait salt lick instead. This years experimental stick baits for me are the uvenko and BPS stickos. Using an Owner twistlock hook will help with some durability issues but not all. My most durable stick bait last year were the Big Bite Baits/Gander mountain trick sticks. Most productive, Senkos.

Tackle Box/bag
Backpack is the way to go. You are on the way to a new location in no time. Keeps your hands free for rod carrying.

Single Or Double Sd Jam Knot ?
Single for Bass.

Pricing Out The Average Angler?
Same here, except I substitute the boat for the bank. Out fished several bass boaters last year, much to their chagrin. LOL

Bed Fishing: Friend Or Foe
Here in Michigan for the majority of the state. Bass season opens the last Saturday in April and is catch and release until Memorial weekend. This is to protect the Bass population. Michigan DNR now has scientific evidence from other states disproving this theory plus the fact that the majority of Bass fisherman in the state practice catch and release, they are currently looking into modifying or eliminating a closed season for bass all together. Having said that I absolutely will target spawning areas but not the beds themselves. All of the professional tours have been fishing beds for years without any apparent ill effects on those lakes. I think the harm factor has been greatly reduced with today's catch and release mentality within the Bass fishing community.

The Benefits Of Realism?
I caught hundreds of Bass last Summer using one bait. Is it realistic looking? Not to me, but the Bass obviously think it is. Senko's and all of its impostors all catch fish.

Favorite Knots For Flurocarbon
San Diego jam. Look it up.

Bank Fishing Stand Or Take A Chair
A folding chair with strap, backpack and three rods. That's what I bring to the bank every time I fish. I do not fish from the chair, but it comes in handy when changing out lures and giving the old back a break. I can cover twice as much water in less time and still have a free hand. Try doing that with a bucket or cooler.
