Wait 'till Black Friday, and you can save yourself a whole lot of money, trust me.

Yes, you can throw it on a baitcaster, but I sure wouldn't recommend it unless you have a super finesse spool or something. Sometimes you gotta man up and pick up a fairy rod!

Hybrid? Did it have a rough patch on it's "tongue?"

No, I couldn't. However KVD has professed that he hates fishing slow, so I think it would be pretty painful for him.

Yep, can't explain it.

I'm not getting any notifications either....so I think I need to go check my settings

My family thinks I spend too much already so I don't usually get fishing presents. But I will be "presenting" (lol) myself with some tackle, probably on Black Friday since I'm a sucker for a good deal.

The Shock is a fantastic rod for the price.

Yes, I talk to myself all the time. And if I'm tired of doing that, my little friend the bait monkey is always happy to whisper in my ear......

Yeah I've heard they break pretty easily. Let us know how they do.

Uh the chigger craws get broken quite a bit!

Almost anything Rage tail, and I stick lots of custom swimbaits on the back as well.

Bro, let me be the first to congratulate you on your photogenic picture faces. You look fantastic.

Hey Goose, I thought it was the Rod and Reel that did that??

This [Fishing in pressured ponds] is basically all I do, so I've had to adjust if I want to catch fish. 1. Quiet presentation Everybody talks about this, but I can't stress it enough. This is huge. You can have the right setup, the right bait, but if you walk up and spook some fish in the shallows you've ruined everything. Stay back, use something that doesn't make a huge splash when you toss it out, and catch the fish right up by the bank. 2. Find the concentration of baitfish Most pond fisherman don't think about this, but I've actually started keying in on it a lot more recently. In my ponds, there's tons of bluegill, but I'm always looking for the bigger pods of both fry and bigger fish. Bass are usually on the lookout for a little school like this, and you'll almost sure to catch something around them. 3. Look for the spots that nobody else is hitting In my favorite pond, everybody fishes from the dock or down the bank a ways at the shallower end of the pond. Both are great places to catch fish, but there's a deep area right by the dock that no one fishes thoroughly. I've started fishing it regularly and pulling out some nice fish. 4. Wear polarized sunglasses If you aren't make, sure to put on your sunglasses. Huge help in spotting potential catches. 4. Finesse If all else fails, pick up a dropshot, wacky rigged trick worm, and especially a Ned Rig and get to work. Good luck.

I haven't experimented enough with it to answer confidently, but I usually only add them in super muddy water.

Last Halloween my dad was coming home from work and some random teenagers on the side of the road threw a rock through his window. Cost him like $200 to fix it. :/

You might also suggest it for one of the best ways to catch fish under tough conditions....it ain't boring to me! Love how hard fish fight on a dropshot setup. Setting the hook on them is a lot of fun too.

Beautiful bass! Just edged out my pb by a couple of ounces

3/8 oz. green pumpkin/blue flipping jig with a rage chunk. Zoom trick worms (you can do just about anything with them, shakeyhead, dropshot, wacky, etc.) Ned Rig Texas rig: rage craw with a 1/4 oz. weight 3/8 oz. chartreuse/white spinnerbait.

Nooope.

Hope it picks up for ya.

You have no other options? At least get a non-weedless spoon, that should cover most species.

Wouldn't put one on a topwater but otherwise I've seen people put them on just about anything and catch fish.

Dropshot Shakeyhead Ned Rig Jig Wacky rig small spinnerbait/buzzbait I've been killing the bass lately on a jig personally, I'd recommend giving it a try.
