Strike King Rage Blade
I really like bladed swim jigs except around wood. Anybody using them around wood cover? Any better or still lots of hangups? Thanks http://www.***.com/Strike_King_Tour_Grade_Rage_Blade_Swim_Jig/descpage-SKTGRB.html

Alx Vs. Dobyns Extreme Vs. G.loomis Glx
Which to you is more sensitive rod for t-rigs and not compare price. Thanks guys

G.loomis Bcr 803 Glx What Do You Think?
Local shop has 1 of the older models on closeout for $263. I was wondering about the recoil guides on them. I ll be using 12# fluorocarbon and it will be a light T-rig rod. Reviews for rod look great but recoils i dont know if problem is just braid or all lines. Thanks

Leader Knot
J knot has been working well for me. I started out with the Uni-Uni then Seaguar onto Albright but the J was strongest for me. Alberto has a big following but I never could tie it fast on boat and get it right never tested it for strength so cant compare.

Favorite Lure Retriever/ Saver
https://m.basspro.com/EZ-Lure-Retriever/product/44428/ This one has saved me a bunch of $$$$. I fish a lot of Poes cranks at $10 each and this allows me to not worry. Over 2 years and only a couple times i couldnt get one back. I also used them on jigs and shakey heads. Only thing I would spend $5 more and get the one that has a reel to store line.

Weirdest Place You've Caught Bass
Small lake by the house had a old garbage can i would always throw at every trip but never a strike. Finally after about a year sure enough one was at home,felt like i won the lottery--HA! Another day i saw a couple guys fishing a ditch between Walmart and Best Buy thinking to myself what a waste of time,next thing you know one has a bass on. I started fishing there after that and it still puts out fish to this day.Made me think different about "urban fishing"

The One That Got Away Stories
Fishing a fluke along a stump row. Clarity about 3' deep made a couple of jerks then paused it and saw what looked like a five gallon bucket come from below my bait and put a shark attack on my fluke. Fish dove back down and snap went the line around the stump. All i did was yell Noooooo! will never forget that fish.

Weirdest Thing You've Reeled In
Hung up my t -rig on some old fishing line went over and just before i cut it noticed a rod tip. Ended up being a KVD reel with berkley rod. Took it home spent 3hrs clean and lube. Been on the deck ever since
-
If You Could Only Use 1 Rod What Would It Be?
6'6" M/fast tip for 1/4.oz and under. 7' MH/fast tip if your fishing mostly 3/8.oz lures and up. I like a 2500 size reel and 10# line with both setups.
