At some point I thought I needed every color of senkos and Zoom lizards. Now I carry 6 colors now, the 5 that work best for me and a random color. Allen

Started using them myself with some good results. Working through different baits now to see what is best. So far Zoom Zcraw jr has worked best. Allen

Generally I just let the fish decide Finesse jigs generally work better in the spring and fall with trig more during the summer. Allen

I have given up on using them for this reason. A tiny torpedo can have a 6' limb and entire grass bed hooked but still spins. Allen

Once you start to figure out what works best for you custom spinnerbaits get easier. I started making them because everything was based on standard sizes for the south. Got tired of buying a brand new spinnerbait then immediately having to modify it to what I needed. Its just easier to make your own from scatch than to buy something you have to modify. If you have any questions hit me or smalljaw67 as between us we have 50 years of spinnerbait making experience. We talk often and bounce ideas off one another. Allen

If you are on Facebook I can give you the contact info for the guy that makes them just message me. Worth has shallow cup willow blades as I have bought a bunch of them. Allen

Top color does not mean anything to me only the bottom. As long as the bottom is white or black I am fine. Allen

I thought Dottie was hooked on a swimbait not a jig? Allen

Its a crap shoot as to what kind of person you are going to get. I ask if there are any rules before hand just in case. When I first started fishing a club I only knew 2 of the 14 people. Figured I would learn a lot from the older members. What I learned from that first year as a co was to buy a boat. Had one guy drop my off at the ramp 3 hours into an 8 hour tournament. He was almost finished his first case of beer and already hit a rock ledge. Allen

That's funny now but I had a new guy in my old club bring 14 rods , 2 tackle bags, and a cooler. I was running a 17'' Basstracker at the time. Caught all my fish that day on a shakey head worm. Allen

RC 1.5 and Bandit 100 have proven themselves for years. This year its been the Bandit 100 in ole matte light. Allen

Had an owl grab a jitterbug which scared the crap out of me. Allen

I canceled after it became an infomercial pamphlet for Toyota and Berkeley. Allen

Figured given the bait shape and the popularity of those colors it would be a good seller. I would pre-order 50 packs if you can convince them. Allen

Tell them to make their fluke in natural shad and baby bass. Allen

68MXF Avid is the best spinning rod I have ever owned. I have a blank in the basement to be built as a custom rod. Allen

Let me give you one of my best but hard learned lessons from years of experience. If you chew Redman like I do when fishing follow these instructions in the exact order. First put the Redman in your mouth. Then go ahead and adjust the jig trailer you just dumped kick in bass craw all over. I cannot stress this order of events enough! Otherwise your day will not start out well and can tell you that my taste in condiments is a lot different than those of a bass. Allen

Bought these hooks off Ebay I think? They look cool and have a teflon coating but hardly fit any molds. If you have a 60 degree flat eye mold I will send some just pay shipping. Allen

This is the main jig I use for most situations. I do use a different hook though. Allen

I have made thousands of jigs and think too many people get caught up in the names? Same with technique specific rods. So what makes a casting jig different than other jigs as I cast all of my jigs? Allen
