Turnings softbaits into Jig Trailers
Take a baby brush hog and cut it off to the start of the arms and put it on a jig. Gives it soooooo much more action.

What bait do you think takes most skill to fish?
A jig would be mine and 2nd would be drop shotting.

Hand Tied Jigs
Who of BR members can I contact about hand tied jigs? I have already talked to GMAN and will be getting some from him soon but I was wondering who else I could talk to about getting some custom jigs

$200 to spend on a rod
I am in need for a rod to put a Pflueger Summit on. I fish a weed/grass embeded lake so what I normally thow are t-rigs, c-rigs,jigs, and senkos/ika. I want at least a 6' 10 rod to make long casts cant decide between mh or heavy. i dont know if i could still through senkos and ika. any suggestions?

Sinking Braid, anyone used it
Dont waste your money. It creates so much drag under the water that there is no feel for you bait at all. stick w/ floating braided line.

The Question EVERYONE can answer.
I was planning on getting a 7' MH because the lake i fish has alot of weeds and about the only fishing i can get away w/ without my flippin stick is a t-rig 3/8 and up. Im planning on putting some Pline cxx 15lb on it. Biggest fish ever caught in the lake is 13 lbs so i gotta beef up a little because my 6' 6 M isnt getting the job done for single hook applications.

If you had 140 bucks to go spend on a baitcaster what would it be and why? simple as that

Flouro or YZ Hybrid
Sounds good. is it very visible?
-
Reel or Rod
you can fish w/ out a reel but not a rod :)
-
Flouro or YZ Hybrid
CXX is mono isnt it? I want something w/ less stretch than mono.
-
Flouro or YZ Hybrid
I hear alot about Yo Zuri Hybrid and flourocarbon. I am getting a Johnny Morris baitcaster and will be using it mostly for t-rigs,jigs, and weightless plastics (senkos and ikas). Which would you use? I am thinking of about 12# or 14#. Anyone?

most underrated lures/baits
Dont hear as much about rattle baits anymore as well as beetle spins or road runners
-
need to catch a citation size bass
I fish the same conditions as you. Bluegill is the main forage. Top: Heddon Swayback Spook/ Horney Toad in the pads Middle:DT-4 Bluegill Patten Bottom: Finesse Jig for the Pads/buy some black shakey heads w/ red hooks and some watermelon red finesse worms and use them as a shaky head. sounds finesse but you will catch big ones doing this. I caught a 4 1/2 lb spot and a 6 1/2 lb largemouth in back to back casts no the shaky head
