I was hoping you would chime in. Thanks man!

So as I’m on the bladed jig journey this year. What are some good cold water trailers? Like low to upper 40 degrees. I have good luck with jigs having a very low action trailer in cold water. Do I mimick that with fluke/straight tail trailer? Or something like a rage menace or bug that has some kick to it? Where it’s a cast and retrieve bait I’m not sure what route to try first.

I will do that! Thank you

Where would one source washers for the drag at?

I’ll have to pop my generator 2 apart and see if there is any difference never looked at the drag washers in one

Very nice! I went and stood in wind and 20 degrees today since the water is thawed out lol. No bites tho

I have one small origins floater. I may try C-rig this year. Never really cared for them floating to the surface

Ma how could I forget @WRB-2.0 @Catt they had so much wisdom and insight. True legends. And @Jig Man hebhas helped me so much it’s not even funny when I started tying my own jigs and has always been there to talk and be knowledgeable @Swamp Girl has always been full of advice as well. Not only in fishing but in life. One of the many people on here some day I’d love to meet some day

Very well said.

I’d have to nominate @Pat Brown @Swamp Girl for the constant drive and really Digging into bass fishing down to the core and understanding the fish and fisheries. And they are absolute hammers.

Thank you Glenn!

That’s awesome. Nothing wrong with that!

I have a pack of bag rage bugs! Great idea Pat! Thank you

Ahhhh ok that makes sense! Thank you.

So weird. No brands mentioned. Idk just odd. So many rules lol

Just curious if anyone can answer this. Why when I reply or post the most random things say it needs approval? No company names or anything mentioned? So I don’t get it

I’m gonna have to order a pack of 3” zako

No kidding? Man that’s crazy I didn’t think it would be that hard.

Pat the hammer never disappoints. Well done man!

I literally watched a Miley ballz vid this morning and he was talking about those! Thank you. Funny gambler was huge where I’m from in Florida. Moved to Iowa and everyone’s like who?

I definitely will. I went out today and casted Ina. Local pond even this it’s freezing here. Waters not froze tho lol. It dialed in real fast.

Ma that’s a great day!

Bee a long time since I had an original. I didn’t realize that about the skirt. See the spunk shad is perfect for my soft bottom ponds. Thank you for the great reply!

Found one marked down from $139 to $89 today at my fleet farm. I have 2 of the gen 2. I really like the gen 3. Still palms well. Smooth as a gen 2. Not much changed. If you can find them around the$100 mark they are still a killer bargain.

Since Pat mentioned that one of my couple best days last year were early spring warm rain days. It was like I could call every cast. Or spot I casted to and catch a fish. 20-30 fish mornings in 2.5 hour period. That said my biggest last year was hottest part of the day in August on a sunny day. Awful day to fish lol. Especially after working all day. But that one bite was amazing
