I make a baby cast on the first cast of the day while fishing its bad luck to catch a fish first cast

lmao that's hilarious

Some say it gives off the illusion of injured baitfish others say its a target for the fish to key in on. if red hooks will make you more confident i say use em.... if not black nickel gamakatsu trebles will work just fine.

not quite air temps are in the 80's for the last few days but the bite is still summerish

I'm partial to copenhagen straight as its only 3 bucks a can here or a pouch of taylors pride

Takes a touch more finesse than other frogs to get it to walk because it sits lower than other frogs in the water

the missile baits fuze 4.0 works well on the neko type rig. I havent used it since late spring tho.

i use the bigger size frogs from time to time. the ultimate hollow belly frog is what its called i think. i have the sexy shad and bluegill colors and i think redear or shellcracker is the other color. they produce fish for me. They arent the softest frogs out there but i think there are harder hollow belly frogs out there. I'd say theyve caught me as many as the spro frogs, but the pad crasher is my favorite as its affordable, soft, and the hook up ratio seems to be slightly better than average with my other frogs. My personal favorite is the popping frog from spro tho. I cant keep fish off of it.

Going fishing with my grandpa as a kid he was such a talented multispecies angler i can't remember ever getting skunked fishing with him. And fishing with my two year old . it brings back memories of me and my grandpa.

Surprised the gloves haven't came off yet. lol i own both more abus than shimano but i wouldn't discount either of them they're both great reel companies

The more line out the deeper it will run. i run 5 1/8 0z keel weighted hooks or jig heads and on a long cast reeling slow its stays around 5 ft deep just slow down the retrieve as you get closer to the end of the retrieve. when trolling at 1.6 mph i can get it down to 15 ft with 100 foot of line out. Up the jig heads to 3/8 and you. could get your desired depth

Happens to me on a river i fish a lot pull up to a spot catch a few fish where bait are present then gar show up and the bite dies off i think the bass know the larger gar will eat them so they retreat

Hard to beat the price of paca craws or havoc pit boss

Not lanier but if you get time for a roadtrip come down to lagrange and we can hit west point

My son will be 2 next month and already knows how to cast set the hook and fight the fish he even beats me in the numbers when we go catch bluegills its great having someone in the family who loves fishing like me

Swimbaits swimbaits swimbaits swimbaits and i almost forgot swimbaits. ill also throw a spinnerbait and a squarebill

At the moment i have 3 abu pro max they're my work horses but i have a few black max and a silvermax. Two abu c3 reels an okuma helios and a revo s gen 2... see a pattern? Lol

did they really have a major impact on distance or was it more for the smoothness of the cast?

how much was the upgrade to boca bearings?

I have the e5 & e7 haven't tried them yet i need a rod for my e7. Never owned a shimano before.

Just got two of these. guy practically gave emm to me. how do you like these compared to you're other reels?

I love my pro max reels almost as good as a few of my higher end reels and for over half off retail id jump and buy 2-3 of them

Academy has allstar rods they're green for 14.99 in m mod/fast action decent rods probably better than a cherrywood

Crappie is a big part of my fishing and bluegill with my son. i also chase catfish with the wife as she enjoys chasing jugs

Pit boss in bama bug and perfection green flake and sick fish in ghost shad and green penny
