  1. I was using a small weightless senko on a spinning reel. As I was reeling it was spinning slightly and it spun a lot when it came out of the water what can I do to stop this error. I have re-spooled as well.
  2. Trailers are pretty much needed in my opinion the are what customizes the presentation. I use jigs quite a bit. I fish fast and slow is summer. slow at mid day fast at dawn and sun down.
  3. Hello, I live in south west Iowa, I would like to participate in tournaments. How can I find some tournaments near me that aren't online. Or aren't the KAYAK WARS!!!
  4. What is the best Texas rig bait for the Midwest
  5. Hello, I am hoping to go to Bass Pro Shops tomorrow I am trying to decide whether or not to purchase the Lake Fork Tackle Fry Ring Soft Plastic. So what are the Pros and Cons?
  6. This is incorrect sir. I do my research. To prove to you there is #6 lb braid I will give you facts from the spool."0.12mm", "1lb test dia", "6lb". I am not stupid! Mr. ChrisD
  7. I would try and experiment a few times then start to make salt adjustments. I actually have no idea and experience with molds
  8. Today I went fishing with my dad. He refuses to use any thing but braid. He used 6 pound test on a baitcaster?!!?? He also like his breaking system loose. He got one bad backlash. (First year with a baitcaster) he then whipped it out very hard. His line snapped. This occurred literally 4 more times. Can someone help explain why it backslashes so easily and then the line becomes frayed? And what's the science behind backlashes.
  9. Just went fishing and well I discovered a new problem the frog begins to float differently. By this I mean the nose points almost straight up in the air is there anyone who can help?
  10. I use nanofil 16 pound test. Very thin line. No memory. Is not braided like braid but is made up of hundreds of tiny lines. Does not float sadly. It has no stretch as well. I get this line for free because I am close to the creator of it and I get many discounts in Berkley products. That's why I use this line
  11. Hello y'all, I have been fishing frogs since I started fishing although I am not a veteran fisherman. Lately I have been struggling catching bass on my frogs. I have many blow ups but.... the fish almost always miss the frog. Like in mid-air the frog will fall out of its mouth or the fish will completely miss it and the bass don't strike on the pause. PLEASE HELP!
  12. Hello, I am leaving to go to a lake in southern Iowa. It is a fish ing trip. Man-made lake. Not super deep. The lake is called Sun valley any tips or reccomended baits?
  13. Today I went to bass pro. I went to purchase the banjo minnow to find out they don't carry it was devastating. Yesterday a friend of my father's was telling me a story and how terrific they worked in sw Iowa. (Yesterday I won a 15 dollar fishing bet and found some money laying around the house) After hearing they didn't have the controversial bait I bought some super flukes. What are the pros and cons of each (the banjo minnow and the super fluke. And can I work the super fluke the same way as the banjo minnow. -future pro bass fisherman Adley Drake

  15. Would a faster action create a larger bend for better hooksets
  16. Hey I have a medium casting rod. It is a black max on a pro max reel. I fish a lot with senkos. I purchased this rod and found that it lacks sensitivity and the tip isn't super flexible should I opt this rod out for a ML casting rod? If not are there rods with a more flexible tip and if so what rod should I buy under$75?

  18. Hello, I just got my B.A.S.S. tackle bag and I don't know the size of tackle box to put in it what size do you put in your B.A.S.S. tackle bag?
  19. Do swivels help and are they worth it? And should I use them?
  20. If they will not bight at all do research or practice off the water. And what I mean if they will not bite is like you have fished for a day or two and only caught like 3 bass!
  21. I have a similar situation but my quarry is a little murkier and has a high blue gill population. The bass are decent sized during the day but in late afternoon and night they get larger. But there is one problem. The bass are kinda scarce, can I do something about this?
  22. Great post I will try this in my pond!
  23. The bass in my pond are small because the blue gill are acting as a predator. This is bringing the bass size down and population. The blue gill are enormous lately we have been throwing blue gill on the shore... I hope this pond becomes healthy.
