My First Baitcaster
i got the 7;1 sweet reel never had a backlash yet, for light lures i only have 3 brakes on, very easy to use but it did take a little bit for me to be accurate with it, now i usually come within 6- 12'' of a target, practice,practice

When fishing alone?
its ok to talk to yourself, just as long as you dont carry on a conversation.

Well, at least I caught something!
about 3 weeks ago i caught an old 6' rod, reel and a old mepps2 lure, a few years back i caught a seagull, last year i caught a 20 lb rock deepsea fishing in about 300' of water. my buddy caught a owl on a homemade popper.

Okay guys, what's the secret?
hello everyone, i love fishing with frogs, when i first fished them i was using mono but as some people suggested to much stretch, then i switched to braid much better, also make sure hook is SHARP, even if its right out of the pack they might not be very sharp, i really never gave it a second thought before but it really does make a difference.

A Shoutout for NH Fishermen!!!
hello everyone, went fishing yesterday in milton, northeast pond. only caught 2 pickeral, still no bass, caught both picks on 5/8 jitterbug, alot of traffic on lake, tournament today, also really windy yesterday, i threw out my anchor to slow me down a little, it didnt really work , when i pulled the anchor up i noticed there was some fishing line wrapped around the rope along with a very old rod and reel with a mepps2 lure still attached, the rod was a 6' shakespere with a shakespere longcast reel,.. wish i caught a nice bass instead.

jitterbug
i have a few different colors all jointed 5/8oz, when you cast it and it hits the water i like to let it sit still for 5-10 seconds then i start to reel it slow and pick up some speed, sometimes i will stop and let it sit again and start reeling again,you will know if you are doing it right by the sound blub,blub,blub SMASH

GLIDE STRIPS ON TRAILER BUNKS
i also have glide strips, and it really does make it really easy to launch and load up. just have to remember to leave it strapped until its halfway in the water so it wont slide off the trailer, and loading is super easy. imho
