Rest in Peace @ WRB-2.0
Oh Tom, I am so sorry and sad to hear that. I had pleasure to meeting him few times and I got very nice collections of lures from him and he acted like a mentor to me. A true fisherman with lots of history and credit under his belt. A trophy hunter and trophy bass angler. We Bassresource family lost a very important member today. I always brag about him since I knew him personally. I wish him rest in peace and wish the best for his family.

Shimano DC Grease
I don't do grease, I just use bantam oil green cap for DC reels. But if you asking Star drag grease, I am using Cosmo Ace RB #2.

Small Scale For BFS Lures
@MontanaBasser The trout magnet 1/16oz under spin jigs are the best in term of quantity of fish. https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Lelands_Lures_Crappie_Magnet_Fin_Spin_Jig_Heads_3pk/descpage-CRDFS.html and in hard bait side:Bill Lewis Tiny Trap Rat-L-Trap 1/8oz in rainbow color https://www.rat-l-trap.com/rat-l-trap/tiny-trap-1-8-oz/

Small Scale For BFS Lures
@Tennessee Boy I found it necessary to have it on water for not changing break adjustments, so I can change lures all 3gr for example, and not mix the weight and have to adjust breaks each time I change bait. IDK, maybe it is too much, but I have like 70 baits from 2gr to 5ge, and it is hard for me to remember or guess the exact weight.

Small Scale For BFS Lures
Got a new 50gr scale for BFS lures to keep it in tackle bag for weighing lures if I am not sure about weight of the. So far looks good and semi water resistant material so I know it can be use under rain as well. Got the brighter color but they have other colors available as well.50gr was plenty enough for me, But they have them up to 200gr as well.

My Bass BFS Gear
I started BFS fishing in 2015, back when very few US anglers even knew about it. At first, I used mostly Japanese-made trout stream gear and discovered it worked surprisingly well for bass too. Recently, with the introduction of the Curado BFS to the US market and the rise of American-style BFS bass fishing, I decided to separate the Japanese BFS trout approach from the US bass fishing style. Here are my results: two combos—P5 Destroyer Siglett and PopX—cover all my BFS bass fishing needs. I pair an Aldebaran BFS 22 with the Siglett and a DC 25 with the PopX, along with some starter lures. I have a $200 order from Tackle Warehouse on the way, and $750 worth of items in my wishlist, waiting for the next discount to complete my collection. For line, I spool my reels with JDM Seaguar and Varivas lines.

American Legacy Fishing
Yes they did do horrible, I place an order and after 7 months (yes more than 200 days), They return my money after I requested. I even email them if they need help in business and someone to weigh in as partner but they never reply me, I was willing to partner with them.

Who made this Lipless?
I have very long topic on that 😊, Try to find it and I had same question, I have couple of them and I use them anytime I can’t catch fish with anything else, Somehow if there is a bass this lure will catch it.

What is the most expensive lure you've lost?
Yup, Anyways I order 10 of them in every color and sink rate, Because I like them a lot and I don’t want to be without one. Usually I have two of every glide, but sometimes I get more than two to make sure I have backup 😄

Shimano Aldebran 31 vs 51 line capacity
I have both of them and 30 have 10 yards less capacity than 50 size on 10lb test. In couple days I am putting all my aldebaran aside by side and you’ll see.
