This is why Japanese lures are expensive
I didn't see anything different in that video than some of the China lure manufacturers. As with everything coming out of China there are factories that produce quality and there are factories that do not. Do not overthink the development of a fishing lure.

Have you ever happily surprised by an inexpensive combo
That may be the most detailed review I have ever read on a $9.99 combo! 😮 Great job!

Have you ever happily surprised by an inexpensive combo
I am actually surprised I have not been able to destroy this thing yet. ~10 white bass, 15 catfish, ~20 black bass, ~50 perch, 3 drum. But to be honest I have been babying it just to see how far I can push it at this point.

"v" Shapes Moving On The Surface?
I have seen them as well. A v-shape heading right toward the bank and then either fading out or taking a sudden left or right with no minnow or bug at all. I always just assumed it was a wind anomoly. But I do see minnows doing v-shapes as well many of the times.

Sticky/gummy reel seat fix?
Thats why I got rid of the soft touch reels seat on our rods. OFF mosquito spray and or certain suntan lotions were melting the coating.

Why so many different lines of rod?
From someone who has been doing this for almost 20 years....this is your answer^^

Ideas For My Heavily Pressured City Lake
Live bait would be your edge but I know thats the answer you are looking for. In the places I have fished with similar scenarios....I go to small profile/ultralight and increase my catch numbers. But in that instance, I have mentally chosen qty over quality.

How is Quantum still alive?
I may be wrong becouse my memory seems to be going downhill, but I think at last years ICAST i was told that they have hired a small team developers to begin working on the Quantum refresh/re-release.

Lure identification needed
There were I believe 4 different manufacturers all making the same thing. Fishing Fools is a swimmin minnow because it is literally embossed into the bait. The other 3 have very slight differences on the nose slope to use as an ID.

Fishless Water
I have a special ability to find those dead zones when not using sonar. My tell-tale line is...."guys i have a really good feeling about this area".

NEW G Loomis GLX just dropped!
I'm down here in Southern Texas. I don't know squat about Canada but I sure do love following Pierre Poileive on Twitter (X). Don't know how true Canadians feel about him though.

Can't find this anywhere
This ones got me. Looks like a spin off version of the Johnson Talking Frog.

Reely curious
How much do you want for it?

Brand disloyalty
I am not loyal to any particular brand. Definitely have been leaning more to supporting small businesses other than the big names tackle brands. Won't step foot in a DSG as they have made it quite clear I am not the type of customer they are looking to get business from. I have never purchased a Googan product...for reasons unknown.

Are Tubes Still a Thing?
Was checking out a big box fishing retailer and noticed they didn't offer any tubes anymore (except for crappie tubes). Is that a big miss on their part or are they just not a thing anymore?
