I fished Woman Lake end of May last year. Water is clear, smallmouth were on beds. It was a sight fishing bonanza, lots of fish, biggest right around 5 pounds. Also largemouth to 3 pounds in the weeds. It was a fun few days, but I have to say the fish were pretty beat up and I started to feel bad for continuing to mess with them. Lake has tons of structure, I hear the fishing gets much tougher later in the year but I have never tried.

There are three levels of excense: 1. Excense A: Top end all magnesium. Like a lighter stella 2. Excense Ci4+: Mid range, similar to USA vanford 3. Excense BB: Lower mid range. Made of XGT7, the older carbon/plastic used on the previous ultegra. I think it is otherwise similar to the ultegra as well. You can get a new excense BB from Japan for around $100. I think there is a new model coming, which I would guess will be similar to the new ultegra and made of Ci4+
