What’s your favorite reel brands?
Shimano(Precision) & Abu(Power) make up the bulk of my reels. But that new Daiwa Tatula 300 is gonna get to ride in my boat, soon.

Classic Round Baitcasting Reels
I fish big soft swimbaits during the Fall & Winter on 3 - 6500C3's that I polished/tuned up.

You ever misplaced any tackle?
Two trucks, three boats, four tackle bags, and five 5' shelves full of 3700's. I've always got tackle missing and I blame the Bait Monkey.

Who sells/makes the best line cutter?
Line to hook/lure I use my CRKT knife and for leader knots I use cheap dollar store stainless steel scissors. I've got those little cheap scissors in every bag.

Frogs
Jackall Gavacho has produced 41 bass in 3 trips and still isn't sinking or tore up. It's about to unseat the Terminator Popping frog as my favorite.

Handheld digital scale for catch and release?

Handheld digital scale for catch and release?
I've got a set of those but I quit using them. Hated having to cut my bass in halves and thirds to weigh them. ?

Lews reel for swimbaits?
I use a Lew's Super Duty Wide Speed Spool for baits up to 3 oz. I'm sure it'll handle 4 oz fine, I just normally grab my Toro Beast or Tranx for bigger baits. I really prefer the stronger drags versus the 14 lbs (Maximum) the Lew's has.

Pleasantly surprised
Picked up a Daiwa Procyon 7' Heavy casting rod. Wanted to try a shorter rod for walking and pitching frogs frogs up close. It's nice, light, and allows me to place my frogs in tight spaces.

Lure Selection- Spinnerbait vs Swim Jig
Swim jig - clear water Spinnerbait- muddy water
-
Umbrella Rig
Yes. Figure out your rigs ROF, so you can count it down to the depth you want to fish and add in occasional pauses/ twitches to elicit a strike.

Giving props to our southern anglers!
I'll be on the water tonight from 11 pm to 4 or 5 am. According to my truck it's to hot to fish in the daylight.

10 vs 15lb braid
I run 10 lb braid because it seems to cast a bit farther & I never use more than a 8 lb FC leader. It's also a fun challenge to tie 10 lb braid in the wind.

Battery charging
Two master shut off switches that I cut on before I launch and cut off prior to leaving the lake.
