  1. Nasa, nothing, zilch, angler getting crazy over here, no place to fish.
  2. yes, that is what I am telling everyone , I never been close to anyone, and anglers always far from each other for 1000 reason, for one not crossing line :), I think the only reason is to drive us crazy haha...
  3. no, all lakes are close here, thats why im planing to go to river and mountain for few days.
  4. Wow DeFoe Crushed them on DT 10, and I just got it in mail yesterday but color he used was Bigg’s Shad, which to be released soon.
  5. your set ups very similar to me :), what Shimano reel you got last week? im hoping to get new metanium DC 2020 left hand in april from Japan, along with new world shaula travel rod.
  6. this was last purchase and took me 8 days for delivery. anyway it is here and I think im not going to order anything for couple weeks till this panic done. so I can get on the water, they close up my favorite lakes here in CA till April 5, ill send that screen shot as well. so I was thinking to go to kern river before snow this Friday and stay there and camp fo 4 days. lets see.
  7. Also the Castaic Lake camping and night fishing is close for now.
  8. in term of preparation I did nothing, I have fish in freezer and I have my fishing tackle and dear south California wtaters all around me . I am just sitting home Monday to Friday and go overnight fishing every weekend till the panic is over.
  9. if you want only one must have I recommend S water 168 light trout color.
  10. honestly I like the idea of using my right hand to carry the rod, and turn the knob by my left as I did for spinner(ive seen so many angler doing that for this reason even they are write handed)., I have an injury mostly to my right hand as well, so when I choose reels, I did choose left even I am right handed for writing, also I remember on grade one I was lefty and my aunt work me out and made me right handed, so also maybe really I am originally lefty but my aunty changed that for writing.
  11. glad it could be help, it helps me in so many occasion. good luck
  12. colorwise I love the crack color.
  13. I recommend you Jackall Rerange Jerkbaits, its not as high as megabass or lucky craft also not like Rapala. it is standing somewhere between price range and in my idea same quality of lucky craft and megabass. as you can see I carry all almost all best available, but my number one so far in Rerange 130.
  14. I did this rig as I was getting short strike bites, or bits with no chance to set hook, once I done that I start to catch without my bite decrease, hook up ratio increased, thats why I never used normal wacky hook since last year. anyways I just want to share and have ideas on it. thank you for time and effort for reading and replying.
  15. Hi, I do wacky rig on treble hook and I do it weighted, Because I just not really in spinning reel, No offense to spinning fans, it is just me that I prefer bait casting. Make story short I never seen anyone doing that and I look everywhere in YouTube or other anglers, So I just call it ATA's Wacky Rig among my friend and that make them have some fun, But seruisly I test it in hardest and most challenging lacked and this thing caches fish and bites. I put the pictures here and this is exactly my set up, as you can se I use weedless treble hook also there with natural color hook, anyway this hook really expose but I haven't seen bass shy away from it. please let me know if you have done this or saw someone doing it. always I deep tips of worms in jj as well. Thank You
  16. I was looking for smallest bait casting reel for couple new light set up I am going to make, and everyone told me core 50 is the answer, so if it is same as core 50, maybe ill put all my efforts on 2020 M.
  17. wow now I cant sleep till I get my hand on one of them, they said left handed will be release later than right handed. good luck man with new arrivals , enjoy casting
  18. This Picture was taken by my 12 yo son
