braid lbs for wacky rig and light Texas rig
Wow 8 lb braid must be like a mosquitos twetter in thickness. One would think very difficult to tie a knot in any wind. I’ve noticed the smaller by braid is (in diameter) the more issue I had with leader knot breaking. You can’t/don’t want to use straight mono?
- Confession: I never catch bass on jig in my life.

Spinnerbait life expectancy
Once I get 3-4 fish on a spinnerbait, it really starts to catch them better then out the pack ones.. Hell it depends, sometimes 5 fish sometimes 25 fish...??♂️ I hate when they leave you with the wire arm still tied up but the rest of it is gone

Things that really frustrate me about some fishermen.
The trash is unacceptable. Period. That doesn’t require the angler to know limits or regulations at all. That doesn’t even have anything to do with fishing, you would think humans can pick up after themselves. As far as keeping fish... I believe you have 2 choices: attempt to educate anglers of state regs (unlikely success rate) or call the dogs on them. Ive seen the people who hunt/fish the most have the greatest respect. It’s the once a month guy with a 12 pack, bucket, carton of heaters, 16 rods tangled together, 6oz weights, reeling upside down, caught a 10pounder in ‘93, week worth of mail on the dashboard guys that have zero respect for anything

Why do we "mimic" fish
I’ve always had this thought that 90% of the time bass are drunk in the kitchen at 2am looking for anything that resembles food... The other 10% they know exactly what they want.. I’m better when their in that 90% tile. The longer I fish the more I want to get whatever I’m using closer to their mouth.

Is my spinnerbait broken?
He knows how the fish are positioned. He’s putting the bait in front of them. I can promise you he’s doing something your not and something simpler than you think.

Trying To Stop You From Fishing A Dock
Your the guy who lives on a golf course and is surprised balls land in your yard. The guy who watches boxing and says ‘man I can beat him’. Are there ways to protect your stuff without being ‘that guy’, I’m sure there is. This is just plain ignorant

2004 Xpress x19
As much storage as the new big boys?? Probably not. He may be thinking storage like a saltwater boat with rod holders everywhere.. I run an 2014 Xpress x17 and can fit 7 or 8 in mine. Longest being a 7’11. It does not have a center rod tube locker. It has a side one and spinning reels takes up the most space. For the money, in my opinion (biased) Xpress is the best tin boat you can bang around in.

Today (Frog)
Oh, you mean you went bass fishing... ‘Frog’ bass fishing at that. Don’t bring anything but a frog next time. Yeah, shake that load off and go again. All those videos on YouTube tell you how, when, color, weight but none say ‘your going to get punched in the mouth sometimes. We all do. That’s bass fishing.’

How windy is too windy.
When the Red Sea split, they said it was an East wind. I ain’t so sure Moses didn’t have a 3/4oz spinnerbait tied up. If they’re flying kites at the boat ramp, may want to shut’er down.
