Best way to fish Flappin' Hogs
I fish them as a trailer on 1/2 oz GMAN jigs, Micro Munch Tackle jigs and 3/8 oz Shak-E2 jigs. 8-)

Micro Munch
Yes, I think so, but I'll ask Craig to be sure. I bought the 1/2 oz in Triple Black, Triple Black & Blue and Watermelon with Black Flakes. 8-)

Micro Munch
When you get online you'll see the Grass Jigs are "SOLD OUT". Craig sent me an e-mail this morning stating that he will have more poured in a month or so. -Kent 8-)

US Reel - anyone used them much - what do you think?
Randall, one of our BassResource.com guides and BIG BASS fishermen, uses the reel and highly recommends them. I bought the original several years ago and it sucked. 8-)

Attn: Lite Tackle Guys
The brown fish in my avatar were caught using spinning tackle and Yo-Zuri Hybrid #4. However, I don't necessarily consider G. Loomis PR844S saddled with a Stella 2500FB light tackle. I sometimes fish with a St. Croix Avid AS66MLF/ Stella 1000FA which might work for big smallmouth, but bass fishing involves catching a lot of other species on the Tennessee River. This rod doesn't handle 20+ lb catfish, drum, buffalo and striper too well! 8-)

Energy PT level wind mechanism cutting my line
Wrong...The grommet is actually a Ceramic Zirconia ring and is one piece just like the shock ring in a guide. The Line Guide Carrier body is molded around it. If you see a split in it send/take the reel back. Good Luck & Tight Lines!!!! The Reel Mechanic comes to the rescue! Thank you David for all the help you provide for our members. Your expertise is truely appreciated. -Kent 8-)

Jerkbait/Crankbait Rod? Which of the below?
I have a St. Croix Avid AVC66MF which has a soft tip. The length and action is ideal for working jerkbaits and topwater. This is my favorite "all-around" rod for treble hook lures. Although it is slightly above your target price, Reed's offers free shipping and there is no tax: http://www.reedssports.com/Product/product.taf?_function=detail&_ID=13255 8-)

i feel bad
Fishing is a blood sport, get over it. We kill a few and eat fish or give them to somebody that will. Killing a fish is nothing to worry over. A huge fish might be something special but the one you caught means nothing. We eat saltwater fish weekly, freshwater fish are no different. DO NOT waste game, but don't fret over it either. 8-)

Whats the difference?
I keep the Kick-Tail (all 3 versions) in my tackle box to remind me to NEVER buy an informercial lure that "out fishes live bait 4 to 1" or "might be banned from tournament fishing". I did catch a couple of "nothing fish" on the lures which broke them! Just to be an ***, I have had them replaced twice, but I don't fish the lures anymore. STAY CLEAR, the Kick-Tail is not something you need to waste any money on, trust me... >
