  1. are there any pretty accurate and fairly cheap scales on amazon. I saw a few good priced ones but people say they are innacurate
  2. I was interested in buying the Arashi 18 swimmer and 19 glide bait. When should i use the swimmer and when should I use the glide bait? My lake is very clear and has trout stocking so im not sure if I should pick up green gill, rainbow trout, or ghost rainbow trout (more translucent and clear). Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.
  3. Has anyone used a arashi glide 18 or a arashi swimmer 19 before. What different scenarios should you throw each lure in? Im a little confused on which one to pick up
  4. Do you reccomend flouro or mono when throwing big glides or swimbaits? I was thinking of buying this but im not sure if its good or not
  5. Do you think a SLX DC 150 can handle throwing 2-3 oz glidebaits or swimbaits or would that be overkill
  6. i think im pikcing up the windtamer in 20 pound
  7. Has anyone used FINS windtamer braid before? I was kinda a Jbraid guy before but the line is really soft and often wraps around the tip but it casts pretty well. Any reccomendations?
  8. Are there any glow in the dark soft plastic swimbaits that Tackle warehouse sells.
  9. If you could only pick one for worms, creatures, any soft plastic in general for clearer water. Would you pick GP or watermelon red flake?
  10. I love bank fishing with a texas rig and am looking to expand my arsenal for soft plastic baits. The place I fish has a pretty big patch of eelgrass that goes diagonal for a good amount of distance. Any recommendations? I had pretty good success with the rage bug. Its a pretty pressured lake so I usually just land 1-2 fish averaging about 1 pound. I'd prefer catching more fish than bigger ones since I only have a 2 hour period to fish that lake usually during sun down. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
  11. Is there a big difference between watermelon seed and watermelon red flake? Im picking up a few t-mac's and I have decided to pick up green pumpkin but cant decide between watermelon seed and watermelon red flake. Also not sure if 6.5 is overkill, I usually catch 1-2 pounders.
  12. Im fairly limited to buying a craw style lure. Im thinking of buying from these 4 choices. Im thinking of using them on a texas rig in a pretty clear lake with alot of underwater eelgrass. Any reccomendations greatly appreciated. Xzone Lures Pro Series Adrenaline Craws NetBait Paca Slim Craw Strike King Rage Craw Zoom Z Craw
  13. thank you so much for the tips!
  14. How long should I wait before i set the hook on a t rig? I usually wait around like 5 seconds to see if the fish has it fully in its mouth but sometimes they drop it after a while. Should I set the hook after I feel a tap? or wait a few seconds.
  15. Ive used the rage bug for a while and it has been a very productive lure for me. I have never used a craw style bait and was wondering if I should pick a few up. I usually fish pretty clear water lakes with a decent amount of eel grass, im not sure how deep. Should I try a rage craw out? Ive never caught a fish on a craw style bait so I tend to shy away from it.
  16. I am buying some shakey heads soon and I have never used them before. I am thinking of buying some 1/4 oz weight heads but im not sure if thats too heavy. Maybe something lighter like 1/8 or 3/16. Im trying to go heavier because I bank fish and casting out further is kinda a hassle with lighter lures. My lake has mostly flatter bottom with not alot of rocks present. all recommendations really appreciated, thanks
  17. I am interested into getting into more finesse shakey head fishing. My lake is pretty clear but has deep submerged vegetation. I fish from the shore and cant figure out where the grass patch starts and ends and Im not too sure how high the grass gets. Is a shakey head good for grassy lakes? or should I shy away from it. Thanks
  18. Im trying to get into shaky head fishing but I cant decide what colors to buy. Im picking up a few packs of the Net bait finesse t-mac in green pumpkin but cant decide if I should get Junebug or watermelon candy. I fish pretty clear waters, does watermelon candy work better than Junebug or visa versa? Sorry for the question I never fished junebug color before.
  19. I fish a lake that has a pretty good amount of clear water but has a very big patch of underwater grass pretty deep down. Ive been throwing the texas rig but when I retrieve back, I always get stuck in the grass even if I tex spouse the hook. Any lure or different rigging recommendations, I would really appreciate any feedback.
  20. I have fished the Rage Bug a few times and have caught a decent amount of fish with them and really enjoy using them. Im trying to expand my creature bait arsenal and have been looking into the D bomb. I fish open water/pretty clear water with alot of grass on the bottom. Is the D bomb another good alternative for the Rage bug mainly fishing open water on a texas rig? Any recommendations are really appreciated.
  21. I was thinking of buying some exoswims. Im not sure what size fits best with a 3/0 EWG hook. Either the 3.25 or the 4. Any reccomendations? Thanks
