Hit the local shop today.

It is very sensitive subject for me, Not I only not carry all of the above, Also ill wear all pink, Well groomed and nail done while boarding planes LOL And the irony in that is I have so many badges and airport pass due to my job. So I'll get easy in airports from any back gate but for travel that is a NO NO and I believe we shouldn't blame them, They really doing all that for us and our love ones safety and security. So I never blame them because they know something that we dont know. in this case we as normal people dont know why a fishing line can be dangerous except when it snapped on fish of lifetime, But for sick minded scoundrels out there can be anything(some people can be very creative). My company and I going to follow up with PD headquarters here to help them make some educational video for traveler. I just need to get on my feet after covid hit my business so bad and once I recover I'll do that for free for security of people.

Hello and welcome.

I use my Antares DCs on everything: 842 Conquest with Antares DC21 With 12lb Tatsu 903 Conquest with Antares DC21 With 12lb Tatsu 844 Conquest with Antares DC16 With 40lb braid with 16lb leader 905 Conquest with Antares DC MD 50lb braid backing with 20lb InvizX As you can see even my jerkbait rod(842C) is Antares DC and it can cast it like champ. So you see what you use the most and try to get that rod, My first rod was Conquest 844C and it was my all around rod, So I suggest you do the same.

I use co polymer for these application and I really like it. It is stronger for creek and also more invisible vs mono.

Thank to @J Francho for all he done and congratulations to @12poundbass , He is well respected by others and he is really respectful member. Glad to hear the good news, Thank to @Glenn and all of his crew to give us opportunity to be here and have up to date knowledge for bass fishing by sharing with each other.

Thats how animals are good in camouflaging:

I was also bass fishing but I couldn't get anything with power fishing so I change to finesse jighead and swimbait and all I catch was crappie, so I gave up and enjoy catching slabs

The moment I wish I can capture is I am fishing with my father and two sons while my mother watching us and talk to us, But it seemingly impossible because each character of my picture is living in different part of word. Father in Middle east Mother in Europe one son in Philippines one son in USA having issue to meet him. But I love all of them and thinking about them everyday.

I was night fishing, and I heard something walking around me and It was a lots of movement, Guess what? I was listening to scary stories about people encountring demons and demonic sprits in outdoor such jungles mountains and rivers, Haha yes I was listening to that as always do for sometime while night fishing. And these movement around me gave me some good time while casting and looking for night bass. I start to talk to the being and made him sure that I mean no harm, Just want to enjoy couple night fishing . Fast forward in morning I was drinking coffee and found out who was making that noise all night and gave me chills. look at the first picture and see by yourself if you can see him. And this is in daylight, Did you spot him? Now look at the rest of pictures to see more clear from other angels.tell me how many of you spot him in first picture in comments. Anyways I found it funny to share with you guys even though it wasn't funny when I was all alone at the lake and because it was ester next day, There wasn't people around me. Oh man that was one of those nights.

Matt and Tim really tune in deep in tackle, I use them as tackle encyclopedia and they are really good at their job. They are missed here in CA when they move out last year. The difference on them with others is that they are not brand loyal and also they cover soooooo much tackle and brands for everyone with different budget.

It is because of pricing, Usually kids want to start or have something cheaper. Plus social networking and push they do is one of the kind.

Hello and welcome to bass resource.

To be honest I have the kit and I paid for service, But I am hesitant to go with it. But I think I will do it soon so I'll reply here the result, I know some of history of my parents already about few generation but not like ancestry style

Last month I got ugly stik gut hook knife for bigger fish and camping, All the knife I had was only Fillet knife but I was looking for something bigger with stronger structures . And I wanted to pay less of course since it was going to banking and camping and about banging it and abuse it. So I came across the ugly stik knife and I love it and I glad to find it, First day when I hold it I knew it is good knife because it has thick rubber handle non slippery. Blade was very super sharp and stays sharp for last 100 fish that I clean with, Also I used it to get the slime and fish scales and it was great. All around it is a great knife for 20 bucks and highly recommended.The only negative point is, it has nothing to put on the belt so I use the magnet and it is really working good.

Two night fishing and thats what I brought for my neigbor

I opened same topic before and I got really good feedbacks and comments from boat owners. But at the end youll decide depending on your money and how much boat you can get from your money. Since I had so much difficulty for covid and no income I didnt buy anything yet but I got me a float tube haha... Soon when everything is fine I am going to buy a cheap fiberglass boat to learn to be an owner, and hopefully after couple years I want to get a bass cat that I really like.

You got me there, But since I am not a master caster, I loos lots of tackle in the trees Haha... I am just trying to save some money. In all my fishing years I learned that casting in impossible places will get you more fish.

Guys these Underspin was very productive for me and I only left one in my tackle box , I was thinking to get some willow and Colorado 1/2oz or 3/8(8/0 hook) but it is very expensive. Do you guys have some cheaper in mind with the same 8/0 hooks and same weight? it is really good size hook for 4.8" keitech fat impact. Here is the link for expensive owner: https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Owner_Beast_Flashy_Swimmer_with_CPS_2pk/descpage-FLF.html

12lb Tatsu for small/mid size cranks and 17lb test for bigger cranks.

I think the Dobyns Mag Swimbait rods are EVA and they are not cheap

Thats why I have three of them, So I can cast this one

I am using 12lb Tatsu with 802 Conquest, But honestly I was like you but now I have spinning setup with 8lb InvizX (also I recommend 6lb in highland reservoirs when catching get tough) for tough days.
