Thanks for all these suggestions. Ever think of a tool or accessory you wish existed?

Thanks for this input. The comment with the line is crazy. That's like one superline to replace all lines. Thanks for the input, once again! Tight Lines - Rob

What's up y'all? Hope y'all have been enjoying a successful year of fishing so far. I'm working on a project, and wanted some input. Since this forum is so helpful I thought that I would turn here. Is there any one gadget, or item you would like to see or have in the industry that hasn't been designed yet? Let's hear it! Thanks for the input! Happy Fishing! Tight lines. -Rob

I hear a lot of you don't use your front runners. I've been looking for one and cannot seem to find one. Would anyone be willing to allow me to purchase it off of them? Thanks!

A friend of mine has recently gotten into bass fishing (via my teaching) and I regularly throw baitcasting combos. He is looking for a heavier spinning rod/reel combo to throw those heavier baits (because he's newer to fishing). Nothing going much over a 2-1/4 oz swimbait if even that. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for heavier spinning tackle for Bass. Thanks in advance! - Rob

Thanks a ton! Much appreciated!

I love throwing those little billed and lipless crankbaits like any other angler! Just wanted to know if anyone had any other ways to work them that deemed overly successful for them! And also if they work great in the spring! Any tips and tricks are appreciated! Thanks a ton!

Any pictures or anything of your hair jig? Could you put a link possibly of the things you used. Would love to try them! Thanks!

Not bad. Thanks for the input! I'm looking for spring tips, but thanks!

Can never fail with the hollow body frog. Love 'em. Great luck! $20.00 right there! Gotta love when that happens!

Very good topwater lure in specific circumstances. Have to know the right sizes, colors, etc. Caught all my PB's as well as multitudes of fish. I've only had it for one season so far. One of my favorites no doubt.

How do you like to work your football jig? Any tips?

Thanks a ton for this advice! Will definitely be using jigs more in the upcoming season, and hearing it from the jig master XD. Thanks again! This is awesome! A lot of people say try to make it seem as if you are rying to make the jig undiscoverable to bass. I love this technique! Thanks a ton! For laydowns, from what I've heard, a flipping jig would produce the best. The Arkie designed head is made to bounce off and around that cover. Plus, the streamlined design helps it to deeply penetrate that cover, therefore making a flipping jig best for cover and laydowns and weeds. Make sure if the lake is normally clear in color, to match the hatch as well as throw more natural colors. I mainly like to stick with natural craw colors, green pumpkins, and black and blues. A lot of anglers sware by different sizes, but the main size that seems to be the most versatile is the 1/2 oz. Make sure, as well, if you are going to be placing a trailer on the back of the jig, that it matches the bait. Both in color, as well as in profile. If you are throwing a large bulky spread out jig, choose the correct trailer. As well as vice versa for a slimmer jig. Hope this helps! -Rob

Thanks! Just learned how to better fish chatterbaits. So I'm hoping that they can produce for me this spring. Did you fish in the spring in PA?
