The latest sale thread
Academy Sports today I walk in and see this. All rods sold I asked if any other stores had any in stock and said 1 rod 3hrs away in all of state left? Worth a call to your local store. Can ya'll imagine first guy to walk in and see that deal. They appear to have all Ghost XL models on 50% off from the tags I saw

'Best'/Favorite place to buy tackle and the like!?!
Tackle Warehouse has always been good for me. We have a BassPro about 40mi from me but there almost useless. Same area has Academy Sports and there pretty good(great sales sometimes) Several times I actually have found best deals on Amazon/Ebay for rod and reels. Sad but no mom/pop tackle stores near us anymore

Bigger baits....
Netbait C-MAC 11" worm Zoom Ol' Monster 10.5" worm Large Jig with craw trailer. Style/Weight depends on cover/depth of area fished. Jigs are good year around for large bass. I prefer using large worms post spawn thru early Fall but they work all year its just my preference.

2018 Diawa tatula 100 zero adjust
Interested in hearing how the Tatula 100 will handle smaller crankbaits like 1/4oz Bandit 200 ? I've got a couple of Curado70's for Trig and Jig rods but always looking at options

Elysian rods
Looks like their Legend series use North Fork Composite blanks, no info on their Omega line. So what's really going on @Catt ? ?

Plastic Worm Fishing
Over 20yrs ago I was watching Bill Dance teach about fishing Texas rigged plastic worms on tv. I went and bought i believe 6" Berkley worm in pumpkinseed and headed down to our neighborhood lake, sure enough after dragging that thing around i felt that "TAP" It's still my favorite way to catch bass !!!

Smallest Baitcasting Reel, In Your Opinion
Got a Curado70 this Summer, liked it so much picked up another one during black Friday sales. Using both with #14 Sunline Sniper one on a jig rod and other on a T rig rod. Hope to pick up another for my medium crankbait rod soon.

Keeping soft baits in bag
Keep mine in original bags but usually will double up contents from two bags into one to save space. Certain craw and worm I use alot of I load 1gal freezer bags to make it easier and quick. Old fishing partner used Plano 3700's and he was usually quicker at changing baits out.

Is there bass?
Texas rig trickworm has caught me alot of fish while exploring new water and if I only could pick one that would be it. Flukes early/late in day also produce Spring thru Fall for me. I usually always have those to start but keep several rods out to rotate when needed ex:topwater, crankbait, spinnerbait, chatterbait

Dropshot bait selection
I know for me i do see an increase in bass size when I move from a 3.5-4" bait to one thats in 6" range with a larger body profile for largemouth.

Spinnerbait and using trailers
Never a trailer for me, I use a trailer hook in open water but never around wood or heavy vegetation

Bought 4 rods, can only keep 2...
#2,#4 for my vote. #2 would work on a large range of treble hook baits. #4 would be a good all around rod for lots of single hook baits. Have stuff delivered to friends house or work to avoid wife confrontation in future ??
