X2 on lews!! You can get the $150 tournament for under a $100 if you look!

Middle one looks like a bluegill color.. Good for dark water or when there's blue gill in the area you are fishing.. The bottom one looks like a sexy shad color... If spinnerbaits aren't working.. Try chatterbaits or any bladed jig.. Or get some swim jigs... You really can't go wrong with a Texas rig. With a creature bait either

Great.. I have ordered plenty of tackle but am making a rod order tomorrow and been a little on the nervous side!

How about rods?? Any one have Experience with them shipping rods?

Definitely throwing my reel magic away after reading that the info from that link! I haven't used it since the day I purchased it.. I put it on some mono.. Set the hook on what was maybe a 2lb fish and snapped...so I tried to break it in differnt places and 12# test broke soo easy on both the reels I had it on, and it was new line ... To say I been basically boycotting Walmart because I thought it must have been line that been siting on the shelf for years!! Being a fishing pack rat I still have the box, and just went try to break it by hand and could not!! The only thing it could be is reel magic!! I even changed brand of mono because of that incident lol

Good Question.. I was wondering what was the difference between reel magic and kvd L&L??

That's why I love this forum! Plenty of great information..thanks

X2 on the double take hooks.

Im with the other guys that mentioned lews! i was iffy at first but just got my 3rd one in and cant wait to purchase my 4th.. either the tournament or the tournament pro would be my suggestion but imo the $100 speed spool beats citcas and the revo s.. dont beilve us go read reviews on any website.

Nice, what trailer did you use?

The last two times I went I didn't catch anything by swimming/slow rolling on bottom but when I was fishing it real slow on the bottom with rage craw as a trailer I caught Do you guys ever have a swim jig tied on and fish it like a football head? Like bounce off the bottom let it sit, pick it up.. Maybe be pop it a few times?

Was wondering what size swimbait people use for a 3/8 oz chatterbait or 3/8 oz swim jig as a trailer??? Specifically lake fork live magic shad and or skinny or little dippers.

Haha Sam, I am from west Baton Rouge directly across the Mississippi from Death Valley.. 10 minute car ride to the gates of lsu..off course im a die hard..

Hey, My name is Jake and im from louisiana. I feel like im not a new member because i been on this site almost every day for the past year haha. Never felt the urge to join because all my questions was answered until now but i will post them in the right section of the forum. I am 25 years old and been bass fishing since around the age of 5. I pretty much grew up on the boat, i can remember crawling under my dads console of a early 90s bass boat to get out of the wind on those cold early morning boat rides.. i quit bass fishing around the highschool years till around 23 years old. (decided i wanted to party on weekends and no longer wanted to get up early..No regrets though) any way im pretty much addicted!
