Comfortably Numb

Ima Roumba is one of my favorites. Whopper Plopper 90 did well last year. PopMax Strike King Wake Shad Spro Rat 40 Sammy100

This is older and I dont know where I got it. Certainly different with the skirt in front. I dont see any real advantage.

I use these with a single o-ring. As long as you spread the wire open a bit and make sure it does not go behind/under the barb, then it will not hinder hookup percentage at all. Much better hook ups then a Texas rig or jig fiber guard. And if you're not fishing wacky weedless then you are not throwing in the thick stuff and missing fish. I also find that in general the smaller the hook, the easier it is for the fish to shake off.

Dont ask me. I love and use the old pearl Chronarch 101's LOL

Pearl white (no base coat) with a transparent decal I made over it.

Ghost Shad

And a pearl, iridescent or transparent base coat if you want a ghost bait

Predator, Dinger, Get Bit, Cedar Run. Many blanks are out of stock because China is kinda shut down for their New Year

Here is the top secret formula to get a stickbait to fall like a Senko. Be aware it will make the bait weaker and also more opaque/cloudy. 4 oz medium plastic 1 tablespoon softener 2 tablespoon pickling or popcorn salt from Walmart

I like the size. Between a Pointer 78 and a 100

Good colors. I like the 110 myself. 90's can be temperamental. You need to keep the rod high with them. Use a line that floats for sure.

I heard some "pre stretch" the line to help it coil less. Is this true or would it weaken the line?

The Real Craw series are not very desirable and not worth much. They are also not one knockers which are worth more. Booyah is making them again and more reasonably priced.

Guy on Facebook makes these. They float a #1 hook

I pretty much use braid exclusively. Sometimes with a flouro leader. Recently I got 12# Invisx for my jerk bait casting rod. I still hate the stretch of flouro but this stuff has hardly any memory. Much better than other stuff I tried in the past.

Get a Vision 110 and a 110+1. Use 8-12# flouro on a 7' med rod. Pop Max is the other MB I use successfully.

Pointer 78sp is very popular. This will fit in that category.

Ty. Bob Smith 30 min epoxy

If ya can afford it. Pointer 78sp in regular or deep. Staysee too. Megabass X80 Trick Darter. On the lower end a Husky jerk 8 will get it done

I do major tuning with hook size/type or split ring size. Sometimes I will add an extra split ring. Suspend dots/strips are great for fine tuning

Nice! Imitates craw and bluegill.

This should catch some. Genuine Xcaliber XRK100 Ghost Holographic Gill and Crappie

Wow those all look really good.

Yeah I'm startin to think that Bass dont read the magazines or watch the videos on what they are supposed to do.

when there is so much prey around. One lake I fish has a million little Crappie about 4-6". Bass get real big there but are hard to catch. So why would they eat a lure? Can there be too much forage for them? Went to a pond yesterday and marked a huge school of either Bluegill or Crappie on the Garmin Panoptix. Threw a jerkbait right at them and hooked a 7.1 Largemouth. Was the lure just easier to grab while paused and suspended? More erratic and injured looking? These Bass are harder to figure out then women
