O my...

It's all technique and bait selection. Equipment is the least of your worries

No way. When you're fishing for giants. I want every advantage.

Smashtech. Head smasher xxl the one featured in my profile pic

I have both. Both are great. Nrx is better in my hands. Always. If it comes down to nrx vs glx for catching fish it doesn't matter.

I've witnessed first hand otters ruining good bite. I fish a heated reservoir. When they run the pumps from a neighboring lake that shares the dam. fish move in by the thousands to get in that cooler oxygenated water. 2 guides and i were fishing it catching fish for a few hours hundreds. Several otter moved into the area and the bite came to a halt.

Own a double, rode/fished in plenty of both. Much prefer a single. Unless. You own a legend v21or something so d**n big it don't even matter

Why? What if your Aunt had a set of nuts?

Something weedless and natural. Make a good presentation if they're on any kind of a feed they'll bite if they aint spooked. Clear water fish spook easily. Make longer casts. Take mental notes of fish you may bump and locations. Let them settle. Come back later. This works for me in similar conditions. Be easy on the trolling motor.

Id probably spend my week in north florida and go south. Waay more lakes to choose from. I agree with everything said almost...You don't need a guide to fish clear lake effectively. I believe any good fisherman can go there and have a good day. I used to fish it often. Didn't have very many bad days. I am not of the opinion you NEED a guide to fish anywhere. Plus it's way more satisfying catching your own fish.

What a giant ! Fish of a lifetime. Welcome to the 11# club

Ultrex>fortrex>ulterra>terrova . used them all. Cable steer is king.

Mine had that same problem.

Even James the hammer has bad days

Curado 300/orochii xx leviathan. For swimbaits. Jsj. Headsmashers. Glides and such. Great versatile combo

No experience with that unit but way points I've set on my are very accurate.

Plain sight... it's simply more efficient. And takes the "feel factor" out of the equation.

I use a 2.99$ luggage scale from Amazon. had for 3 years throw it around left out in rain. Still working on the same batteries.

Yes!

I had a lexa 300 for about 2 years maybe it was made on a monday. Used it on a xheavy swimbait rod mostly used it for rats . And 250s. It started out great. But it felt like it started to flex over time and the gears got rough and in a bind. Then after more time and hard use. mid cast the thumbar Freespool would disengage stopping the spool .casted off 2 baits.I had it rebuilt and sold it. Have had a 300 curado since and like it better.

When ever my freezer is getting low on crappie . I used to trotline alot. Big flat head is some of the finest tablefair in the south.
