Flipping/pitching Fish Coming Undone
fight em "down and dirty" by that I mean keep your tip down to help keep the bass down in the water. it helps! I played this game against many a Tarpon and it works, however it didn't always keep the tarpon down (in open water I had no issues with them jumping and me bowing to the king, but in close quarters bridge fighting I wanted them to stay down . but it works well for bass in my experience

13 Fishing Rods
i have both the *** and the premier in MHF. both are great rods! the *** is a little more sensitive, lighter, more comfy and more stiff than the premier imho. I use them both every time I am on the water. you cant go wrong with either. the one arm casting thing I think is most people getting used to the omens blank. I was alittle off ( to the left) at first with my *** but after a dozen or so casts I was right back on the money
