stained vs muddy water
My water clarity is roughly the same. This past year i caught a fair amount in water up to 20' on jigs and deep crankbaits. Deeper than that i have not had much luck.

it does but 2 of the s cranks are 16.99 instead of 19.99 i haven't used the 3d but i do really like my composite rods that i have it really depends on the use though i find for lipless, squarebill and mid it's nice but for deep cranking graphite is a little better

Crankbait Customizing
what have you tinkered with so far? from what i have learned round bend are normally just better all around hooks, if a fish swipes at a bait they are unlikely to get the ewg because they are turned inwards. as far as snaps go i believe @Glenn uses them on his line and takes off split rings off the line tie (as per his video). so maybe he can talk about that a little more. i would be looking at line type and diameter. I am always trying to get more feel with crankbaits so im going to be throwing braid to leader next season probably 40lb 832 --> 14 lb mono. also what is your cranking setup and what depths are you using it for mainly?

Braid backing
i use braid backing on some reels, mainly the ones with fluro because i dont want to put a whole spool of fluro on. the brand doesn't matter, if i were to buy braid specifically for this is would likely be 30-40lb of whatever the cheapest braid was. i have never had a problem with braid slipping when used as backing. i have however had issues with straight braid slipping on some spools. what comes to mind is just grabbing a 1000 yard spool of kast king braid its like $30

Heartbreaking -- Grass Carp Stocking in Briery Creek
this is my thinking and someone please tell me if im wrong. the carp eat the grass which includes all the plankton in the grass, this slowly kills off the bluegill or baitfish population since they now have nothing to eat, this in turn kills off the bass because they now have less to eat
