Senko lover

Oh, and typically I don't have a problem with the bait in my ponds eating trees. You must have some nasty little shad where you fish!

Why did you not have an "all of the above" option??

I use a MH for just about anything moving; squarebills, traps, swim jigs, chatterbaits, etc, and spinnerbaits are no exception. Rod choice is less because of preference and more for the fact that I don't have very many

They have more or less the life expectancy of a senko.

Terrible. Prayers go out to those involved.

Have any of you fished this bait? Had to chance to check it out recently; I really like what it's done for me so far. It's basically a big worm (I call it a Senko on steroids) with finesse action. Found it to be a killer combo. It's a large profile bait, but rigged weightless it just barely quivers and shimmies on the fall, which is really cool. The tail adds a lot to it as well. If you like senkos or bigger-profile worms, this deserves a serious look.

Hope everything goes well man!

Nice work Speed!

I was watching an FLW event, and needless to say, this thread jumped into my mind. Hopefully this starts where I wanted to lol. https://youtu.be/TKBTZBKM5Xc?t=1m2s

I fail to understand why you didn't try to poke it or something. That would have told you a lot right there lol.

Weightless wacky rig does the trick for me; I love a trick worm or Senko.

Thanks for your service guys!

Saw the vid on YouTube last night. Fantastic fish, AJay.

That was insane!

I see what you did there!

Winner winner!

The Missile Baits D Bomb has quickly become one of my favorite soft plastics. Fantastic flipping bait.

I don't know who the mastermind is behind Tackle Warehouse, but he should be the one buying out Cabelas, not BPS.

Yes!! Bass Live has made this possible! I love it.

This is probably the best answer you're going to get.

G Loomis and Shimano? Nah bro, those are terrible choices.

IMHO, a net would be too much to carry from the bank. My landing technique is: fight the fish in to the bank, pin the bass's head to the bank, and grab the lip. Haven't lost a big one at the bank yet.

Another vote for a jig! Best technique out there.

I think I was actually in Illinois when I heard it

Sam, I'm 14 and I can honestly say I heard that one just about half a lifetime ago ​ ​
