This is a question for the smallmouth guys, I live in Missouri and there are many Trout springs that are great for smallmouth. In the summer we use jigs and soft plastics, but now that it is in winter, should i be using the same jigs or should slow down and use soimthing different? its going to be 60 the day we are going so will the water temperature be a problem if its coming out of spring, with the water being ice cold anyway?

It means heavy cover because it is a squarebill crank!

I managed to get about 350 from the recent snow I the Midwest, and wanted to get some of your ideas on what rod and reel combos you would be the best for the money!

I have a few and if got the suspending you might have to have to balance them or get heaver hooks! mine would float just little bit so i got bigger hooks and work great!

I like the gambler EZ SWIMMER. Great action on it!

Get a new rod! you said that it was 7 foot, and now it is 6'3. There is not tip on the rod, It will be harder to FEEL anything!

Because thats whats fun about bass fishing once you find out one way to catch them, We always want to try to catch them another way!

i use a weighted hooks for lizard baits so they glide and is a little different look to the bass! and they crush It!

i Use mostly swimbaits and swimjigs.

I guess for like a club tourney. Im going to try to get into a club soon anyways! I spend about 2-4 times on the water a week!

Im 15 and am really into fishing and even have started my own Bass fishing club at my high school. I wanted to know what i should do to get into my first tourney. Also how i should prepare for my first tourney once i know what tourney i'm doing. Thanks! -Adam

Iv have herd that some tungstun weights can fray your line pretty bad and was wondering which brands you have had Luck and Bad Luck with!

I like watermelon magic in he big size for clear water and a i think its like a dark purple for dark water conditions!

If you set your drag right you wont break the line. Set the hook hard the first time and if it breaks then make the drag looser,and keep doing that until you are confident that it wont break off even with a hard hook set!

I have herd of people swimming the big 12 inch Jelly Worm to imitate a snake. has anyone done this or had any success of any kind with any other technique with this worm?

Have any of you guys seen a difference in these two baits in effectiveness of catching fish and which one do you prefer over the other?

I just bought a 16 foot Big Jon from my grandpa and was wondering if anyone else has had one of these or something similar?

You guys just go on about how its a right handed reel and dont answer my question... Come on!!! Thanks Imbfisherman for doing the answering part

no when i take the picture it switches it.

I Got this Quantum Energy PT xm From my bass fishing club at school and it has been used. Its is also A left hand reel. I was wondering what the price of these and if any of you guys liked these reels. The only thing i know is the drag is butter smooth! Its was also spooled up with some nice heavy braid which i think is a plus! Thanks, Adam

the beads are probly making more nose because they are metal against metal.

I have had good luck using them just like a crankbait in shallow water, always hitting the bottom! also in submerged grass ill let it tick the top of the grass then let it fall and rip right out and thats when i get my bites!

If you do it enough and your line doesn't go back on your spool correctly then it can weaken your line! I have had it where i had a few bad backlashes and then a few days later I made a really long cast and half my line went with it! so be carful and don't be scared to re-spool every once in a while.

Thanks i didnt know what trailer to put on them! cause there pretty small! haha. I got the the regular bitsy bug not the flip i mite pick up the flip tomorrow!

Just picked up two of these jigs at walmart, one in brown and one in black/blue. How do you like these jigs and most importantly do they catch fish??
