Nothing comes off the table, but accurate cast become more important. Many times I will, "junk fish" to try and figure out the pattern some. Truth be told, bluebird sky's halp me eliminate water more than it does limit my arsenal

Gents, the itch has been scratched from thanks to a great forum brother.

Sweet Sausage, Fenway Frank's, Marshmallows ( burnt to hell)... .....and have been known to have a cricket or 2 after. Few drinks ?

.....thought RuPaul might have some input......opps, sorry, wrong forum?

Folks, I am hoping a few members might be willing to share where they get MB+1, Jr's. My OCD has kicked in given I have a lot of time on my hands and my only fishing might be on a dock in a chair..... Thanks in advance, Al

Not to beat a dead horse, but this year I started crushing the barbs and do so when guest are using my gear. Few things are worse than having a 6 years old see you digging a swallowed wacky rig out of a 12 inch bass

^^^^^^bluegill or sunny

I would go 894. Most go with the jig rod, but I prefer the MBR'S. While technically not a 1 ounce rod, for what you described and that you are throughing 1/2 ounce, but the rod that satisfies 85% of that you want

Of what you listed I would go with the GLX and if you can find a NRX on sale, scauf it up

You will get a lot of replies on this one... Tons of options, but I always have a jig, bubba-shot and swimbait tied on whe. I am going there

Another benefit to covering your skin is that it helps keep you hydrated.... Soaking a necktie also drops your body temp.....

All good advise........and I always have hydrogen peroxide in the boat

This may work... Love mine https://www.alphaangler.com/products/clutch-power-finesse

Wacky Rig Swim Jig DS, maybe 2 Top Water Trig/bladed jig Neko. If the above fail, clear the deck and reach for Ned

This is the first time I have heard this. If the boat is new to you, did you clean the wells. I have seen die after not cleaning wells after winterization. Cleaning chemical residue also raise hell with the system

I have been reaching for round bends and Shaunessey (sp) more than WG's lately

I use a loomis SJR which is similar to the DSR and really like it. Braid to 4 or 6 lb FC The MB whipsnake is also a fantastic rod for this application

Bingo….I ruptured the other one 4 years ago and the process was clear and doing PT in a pool accelerated it!

Summer is all but over….tore my another patella tendon. Surgery next week. …..don’t even have a good story.

I have both and the bantam is on the frog/heavy slop rod and the Met is for jigs. For me the Met feels better on everything with the exception of heavy rods

Nothing real note worthy. Put 12 in the boat, half over 3lbs…..What was note worthy for me is that they were all on the Dark Sleeper! Out fished my partner in numbers and size. I am a believer…

Haven’t had a lot of time this Spring….The Fat Ika put 8 in the boat and 2 were just over 4lbs

I use the fat Ika instead of a tube……it can be almost weedless
