Fishing Leaders
Hey guys- i was wondering if you think that fishing leaders(im talking about the metal ones not fluorocarbon) will scare away the fish if im using swimbaits such as hudds the waters around me are by no means clear with a few exceptions.....most lakes have visibility of 2-3 maybe 4 feet. Although i have two lakes with 8-10 foot visibility. I have many small pike and pickerel around where i fish so i want to see if you guys think that by using a leader, it will scare away the bigger bass. However i don't want to lose a 60 dollar swim bait

Swimbait Help
Hey guys, For you big bait enthusiasts: I know that there are many different types of swim baits such as soft baits, glide baits, wake baits, etc.. And i know that you throw what you have confidence in but could you tell me when it is more ideal to use each one?? For example, when is a glide bait preferred over a wake bait or regular hard swimbait? what cover? time of day? etc.. Thanks!

Help Me Be Successful!
Hey guys, Heading up to a brand new lake this saturday.....the forecast calls for a high of 87 degrees and mostly sunny, no fronts have moved through the area. I can not find a topo map and the ONLY thing i know about the lake is that it is littered with stumps on the shoreline. I dont know clarity, depth, bottom composition etc... What would you do? I will be on the water from 7am to 8pm!
