Like others have said 2, 4, and 6 are what is used most. Allen

Lucky Craft yes, no Megabass counterfeits that I know of. Allen

Bass Pro Shops XPS Hook Weights | Bass Pro Shops Look at these I think they are what you are looking for. Allen

So I have a local guy that wants me to make him some spinnerbaits for Sante Cooper that have a single large colorado. He said size 8 blades and when they came in these are huge. You could scoop ice cream with these blades! The heaviest head I have right now is 3/4oz and I don't think its heavy enough to support this size blade. Anyone ever make a bait with size 8 colorados and if so how did it run? It has rained for a week straight so everywhere I normally test baits is flooded out. Allen

Finally kicked my jerkbait habit! I was spending $200-300 a year buying new JDM jerkbaits for about a decade. Starting to sell them off as I could never use them all in 2 lifetimes. Luckily for me some of the ones I bought 20 years ago are worth serious money. Got $225 for 2 straight eye Pro Blue Vision 110's from like 2002. Allen

Clevis size 2 for blades 3.5 and smaller, size 3 for anything bigger. The other consideration is your wire diameter as the holes in a size 2 clevis maybe too small. Swivel sizing is the same as well. Allen

This is the best answer, you can shave down bills to make them run shallower as well but be prepared if the bait no longer runs correctly. For a Baby 1- I don't think there is anything you can do. Allen

Do something the wife has been bugging me to do and fish another day. Allen

This is why I will never go ice fishing. Allen

Sell them now while the market for them is hot. Allen

Goliath Grouper of course. Not a translation error but I order a bunch of skirt tabs from the manufacturer in China. When it came in the Post Office didn't deliver it and asked me to come there. The Postal Inspector said he needed me to open the box to see what's inside? They brought the box out then I understood their concern. The box was wrapped up just the ones you see in drug seizures on TV. After I opened it up and they saw no drugs we all had a good laugh about it. Told them I have my overseas drug packages delivered by FedEx. Allen

That white Roostertail will catch every freshwater fish swimming in the State of Maryland. I fish a local creek that has a good SM population which is stocked with trout. Last year while fishing for trout in March I was throwing both a Roostertail and a Mepps Aglia. Caught 7 fish on them, 6 SM and 1 LM so I figured hey switch to a tube since the bass are biting. Two fish on the tube a 18" Brown and a 16" Rainbow trout. Allen

You can try putting a small o-ring over the R-bend before tying the line on. I have never broken a spinnerbait at the R-bend for some reason. Mine always break within a 1/2" of the head. There is always a trade off with wire diameter versus durability. Had a guy that always boat flipped every fish so he broke a lot of spinnerbaits. He asked me to make him some that wouldn't break so I just used Musky spinnerbait frames and cut them down. Bass spinnerbaits are .032 to .040 wire and the frames I used for his were like .075. Those baits needed channel lock pliers to tune them but they held up. Allen

Be honest Southwest Louisiana only has summer and a hotter summer.🤣 Suspending jerkbaits, jigs, beaver baits, and slow rolling a single blade spinnerbait. Allen

Senkos and Flukes is what I would start with. Buzzbait when it gets warmer out. Allen

Buy BPS Stick-0's during one of their sales. Or go to any fishing flea market shows in your area. Because of the shows I don't even know how much senkos cost retail? Bought 28 packs of 5" Senkos last year for $40 so I am set for now. Allen

My guess is that is a Manns bait or Mister Twister based on the looks. Allen

I have personally witnessed bluegill come in and attack the bed of a bass that was just caught off it. Now I don't quit fishing during the spawn but am 100% against purposely targeting a bedding bass. To me its Un sportsman like just to agitate a fish into grabbing a bait to protect its nest. Pennsylvania it is illegal to bed fish. Allen

Kistlers were great when they first started making the no foregrip ones. My issue is they kept changing blanks so if you bought the exact same rod two years in a row they were different. I still have a couple of the first generation Heliums I use. St. Croix is my favorite rod company overall. Their powers and actions are so consistent I know how a rod will fish without ever using it. Live Target suckered everyone with those realistic looking lures that don't catch anything. I will say the squarebill crayfish crank catches fish but they discontinued it very quickly. Allen

FA Wagasaki M Stardust shad Clear Laker Matte Shad I have others but don't remember the names. Allen

Plan on hitting that place in the next month now that I finally was able to renew my boat registration. Allen

Have not used either of those but I do have the 68MXF Avid and it is my favorite spinning rod hands down. I like it so much I am having a second one built on a SCV blank just to see how it compares. Allen

Is it multi colored or is it just my screen? Allen

I picked one up recently but have yet to dissect it. Allen
