Haven't been able to get on the water in a while and got some whopper ploppers for Christmas. Should I go with my 7'6" H Frog Rod or would a 6'6"-7' MH work with braid? Plan on throwing the 130 more than the 90.

Just discovered these bad boys. Was wondering what the difference between the 90 and the 130 is besides size? Do any of y'all have experience with both or recommend one over the other? They look really cool and seem to work exceptionally well

This past weekend I caught a 4+ lb bass that was very healthy, but he swallowed the hook and I could not get it out. It was absolutely the worst feeling in the world. I have read on here that some people cut the hook to get it out, and I was wondering what you guys recommend to use to cut the hook? I was thinking some type of side cutter or wire cutters, but am not sure.

Caught this one on a rage craw. Unfortunately he swallowed hook completely so had to cut the line. Hate when that happens but just a part of fishing...

Lately I've been using brush hogs and have been tearing the fish up. However, I usually fish the same pond and feel like the fish are starting to get used to them. One of my buddies suggested (not really suggested, almost made me) go and try rage craws and said how amazing they were. Since I know nothing about them really, what colors do you guys find the most effective and how do you fish them? Going to get some later today.
