I just reread the title and now I realize what’s going on

I know this question sounds like a joke, but I actually have questions. I was fishing a shaky a head but everytime I tried to shake my rod, it either hops a little bit or I just shake the line instead. I know the worm is loaded with salt so could be just the bait, but do you keep slack on the line and shake it?

Can't decide which size EWG hook for a 3.8 swimbait, any help is appreciated

I saw that the stroker hooks were made specifically for rage rigging. Is there really a difference in terms of presentation with those hooks as opposed to any other weighted hooks?

Looking to get some weighted hooks to try this rig. Can anyone that has tried rig recommend what weight and hook size would work for rage bug, craw, and other 3-6 inch plastics?

Does anyone know if war eagle uses a light or heavier wire for their spinnerbaits?

When would you chose a chunk trailer as opposed to other soft plastics? Why is there even a chunk category?

What makes a flipping hook for well, flipping? Why dont you wanna use flipping hooks in lighter cover?

For light T rigs like 1/8 - 1/4, what are some areas you guys would cast?

So those flipping and pitching rods are more for heavier application like a fallen tree with a lot of roots then for a simple log? It wouldn't be necessary then to have a flipping and pitching rod just for flipping something like a single tree stump?

I see many people only prefer to use this baits to get through cover like laydowns or grass. Does anyone use baits like the rage bug or pit boss in a T rig around docks and other light cover?

Why do people recommend such high lb test line for these rods? For example, I run 12 lb on my T rig and I can flip and pitch with that to laydowns but I see for flipping and pitching rods, they recommend around 17-20 lb.

Thanks guys, why are there rods designed for flipping and pitching when I could do that with just my standard T rig rod?

Whats the difference in flipping and pitching grass vs punching? I don't really see a difference

Yeah it's not a giant lake, just 200 acres and limited access so I highly doubt it was from another angler not to mention it was like the first week of spring

Been fishing there for almost 2 years and half of it is located on a college campus so I doubt it. There also no boat launch

By the way you worded your sentence "snuck in a lot of fishing," I'm still not sure if you're talking about getting fishing time or you snuck in somewhere to fish

What did you mean by that? End up in front of a judge for trespassing on private property, not fishing

Apparently not enough volumes to know not to sneak "on a golf course from 6th grade til college"

The issue is many of there viewers don't know that or even think about it so they go do that on their own. Some videos of them sneaking into places like disney after closing time is also pretty dang hard to clickbait but I get what you're saying I don't think staying silent about sneaking into places you aren't supposed to be in is good either. Calling people out on it outweights the critique that will come at you.

Not trying to spark controversy, just ticking me off people thinking it's cool by saying comparing it to others I know exactly who you're talking about

Anyone else notice a trend on youtube where youtubers, usually millennials are sneaking into private properties like peoples backyard, golf courses, and other closed off areas to fish a small pond and catch "big bass"? I see a lot of comments think it's not an issue to do that and are even influenced to go try that on their own.

The last 2 out of 4 trips to this same lake, I have seen at least one bass floating on the surface. On one trip, the bass looked dead and the other one, bass was still alive but it was struggling around. I've never seen this before in any other season but I have seen this twice already. It was also early in the spring so I doubt it was due to another angler. I couldn't see any external injuries so I've assumed it has something to do with the season change. Any theories?

Is the hard knocker squarebill the new version of the rattling one or are they two dfferent models?
