What's Your Favorite Tube
I usually throw a watermelon strike king tube, had a lot of luck on them when I was younger so I just stuck with it. What size, color, brand tube do you like throwing? Also do you fish it weightless or on a jig head. 90% of the time I throw mine weightless because I'm too lazy to switch hooks

Nice Weather!
Just about everything has cleared up here in mass near me, I think maybe further west in the state they still have some ice.

Anyone know if they have lefty curado I's up at the hookset bass pro. I ordered one at foxboro during the reel trade in and they still only have righties.

Bronzeye Shad
I don't remember mine taking on that much water, but it does sit a lot lower in the water than a normal frog.

St. Croix Avid Series
The 6'8" mxf spinning is a great rod. I use mine for plastics.

Bronzeye Shad
I caught a few off them at the end of last year. It took me a little bit to walk it. I prefer the regular bronze eye

Why Are Lines Popping Off The Reel?
If it's a spinning reel it might have too much line or it's spooled too tightly. One time with a freshly spooled spinning reel I went to cast and the line exploded off the reel, I just cut off the mess and after that it worked fine. I'm no pro, just saying what happened to me, might be the same problem.

Help With A Frog Setup
I've been using a st croix premier mh for frogs, I think as long as you have braid on it you'll be fine.

First Of The Season
Got my first piece of salad of the season. I swear if I only ate what I caught I'd be a very fat vegetarian. I'm just glad that all this ice is starting to melt

Rod Power Question For Abu Garcia Veritas Owners
I would go with the mh, esp if you're going to put trailers on the 1/2 jig. I think the m is really versatile but you are going to be throwing 1/2+ plastic the majority of the time if get the mh. I own a 7 ft mh vendetta, 6'6" mh veracity, and 7' med veritas

Go To Baits For Big Bass
My biggest bass came off a spook, but I don't think it necessarily catches bigger fish

Topwater - Frog Vs. Mouse?
They're essentially the same thing. The frog has two legs out the back and the mouse usually just has the tail (talking about the lures). I'm pretty sure it doesn't make a difference, the bass just sees some commotion on the surface and eats it up.

What Is The Worst Thing You've Ever Eaten?
I've eaten a lot of weird food, but the only thing I've ever turned down is balut. I saw my uncle eat one and I thought I was gonna throw up. I'm not a huge fan of seafood, particularly shellfish, but I'll eat it every now and then.

If I brew it myself hot black coffee, if I'm on the road I'll stop by DD or maybe McDonald's and get black iced coffee

I Just Ordered Two Setups But Have A Question
I like braid too, I think it's the most hassle free line. Plus if you have a lot of weeds like I do it makes it a lot easier.
