Welcome to the world of SwimBaiting, these lures are not going to be tied onto your everyday setup. You will need to invest in a heavier rod , a higher line capacity reel and at least some 25lb. line. These baits are very realistic,weight more and are geared to catch larger fish which means your catch rate will diminish greatly ie: casts to strike ratio. It is a technique that relates to a Trophy Hunter looking for that 21 pointer only we are looking for that 10 plus pound LMB.It can make for a long tiresome day throwing these big baits with only a few bumps at the bait which translates to this technique is not going to be for everyone. I for one can attest to how realistic these baits are because I have to watch out for the Loons chasing them right up to my boat. I hope this helps you see a different point of view and how it can be addicting for those looking for that Trophy Bass.....Here are a couple of vids of Butch Brown who shall we say loves his Swimbait Fishing.......http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DE-u95hF2Xg

Some nice SwimBaits you have there....

Always looking to enhance my experience while out on the water I have been looking for some longer handles that would work with my larger reels.Well after Mike sent me photos of the new Curved 102 Handle from Hawgtech I said sign me up.Since then I have had the pleasure of interacting with both Mike and Robert and want to say it is a pleasure to do business with them.BR and the members of this forum are very fortunate to have them as a sponsor as well as members of this forum. Here are a few shots of the 102..... Antares HG TopWater Calais 200DC Frog Calais 200DC TopWater Conquest 300 SwimBait

Okay.. Today I was going to focus on my Frog and one of my new Imakatsu Waddle Buggy's in BullFrog. Got on the water by seven to a overcast sky and flat water. Drop in the trolling motor and off I go cruising over to a solid weeded area as it is known to have LMB hanging out. First cast with the WB water explodes and I miss it, the beginning of one of those days. This went on 4 or 5 times till I did connect with this one.. Now I decide to start throwing the Frog back in the areas of my misses with the WB and hook into this a 4lb.6ozer So now it is time to move on to some other spots and continue to miss fish both with the WB and the Frog in fact two solid bass on the Frog to within 1 foot of the boat. Needless to say I had one more lost on the Frog and 3 or 4 missed with the WB. But all was not lost for on my way back in I connected with this 4lb.14ozer in one of the spots I had one right up to the boat....Just "One of Those Days".

Got a shot of the Big Headed Loon that chases my swim baits yesterday........

Glad to hear you are having such a great time with your new Calais DC,they truly are a sweet reel.

Go back over to that spot with a Frog.....See what happens next.

Yes it is and now it has a new handle on it..... Hawgtech 102 Curved Handle......

Like this with the new 102 Curved Handle....

Not if you have a wiffle spool or one that is a semi wiffle which the 200 DC does.

Just added the 102 from Hawgtech.........

Of course you can, someone is pulling your leg.
