Haha, that guy doesnt know what hes talking about, it doesnt sink.

Why would you think it will sink?

I like the 8:1 left hand option

That's like asking why don't you buy pretty much every bait under the sun because X bait is productive for X group of people.

a MH is fine if you are fishing around heavy cover, but otherwise you want a M for 3/8oz cranks

I use this http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Owner_Twistlock_Light_Hook/descpage-OTLL.html

Whats wrong with your current one? Sounds fine for swimjigs.

Don't bother buying extra right now, save it for when you actually need it, if you ever do

Ya, i fish them

I buy mine on ebay, $3-4 for like 100

What brand mono do you use?

manufacture's specifications, or with a manual scale, if my drag slips in an weird situation, I would measure it

if its not on the bottom, its on mono leader for me.

hookup ratio or landing ratio? All my swimbaits have good hookups, but my line-throughs do have higher landing%.

13

That's a rather expensive jighead you got there, care to share a review of it?

pretty sure majority of the reels around $130 range can do what you want to do. if you are having trouble deciding which one, thats another story, but just finding one isnt hard at all. 1* fishing, daiwa, shimano, lews, abu, etc all have reels that fit your needs

any decent reel will last a long time if you take care of it.

haha, the tail grabbers, I don't get them too often. you can use the 2 o ring trick on jig heads too. I find it helps me a decent amount with hookups

post a picture

do you put your hook in a parallel position to the worm when you wacky rig? maybe thats why.

doesnt look like it would give a good hookup when the bass bites in the center or from the other side.
