chatterbaits how do you fish them ?
i used my chatterbaits for the first time today and i would have to say i really like them, they produce a lot of vibration and i used mine many ways over a rip rap, swimming it, hopping it, slow rolling it, letting it drop onto the structure so the blade barely moved. the only things i don't like about them is that they are really tiering on the rod i was using them with, and it seems to have a lot of lift especially on fast retrieves, does anyone know how to fix or make these two problems better?

You may be addicted to bass fishing if ???!!!
you know when you are addicted to bass fishing when you are sixteen and have hormones, but think about fishing more than sex or girls. you will only go out with girls who like to fish your first date was on a lake fishing, and wile she was trying to be romantic and stuff all you want to do is fish. people in school will come up to you and ask you to help them with deciding a reel, were to fish, help them cast a baitcaster, etc if in the spring summer and fall you rarely have a girl friend because you are focused to much on fishing get in trouble in math class because you were reading bass master when your suposed to be doing math. and the sad thing is all those are about me and what i have done.

i think its a ghost town now!
ok so the lakes just unfroze (and i have been waiting for it) about 3 days ago, and every day i am out fishing, but it seems like it is a ghost town, i cant get a hit for anything, i have been using jigs, shaky heads, carolina rigs, and even tried some rattle traps (i heard the tight wobble will work). i have been mainly fishing the deepest part of the lake, can anyone help me with winter fishing, i am not good at it. thanks, fishingman

buzz or spinner
spinnerbaits i use most the time but there are allways the time when i will use buzz. i will use spinnerbaits mainly in gin clear to muddy, anytime of year, except for when there is ice on the water. and just experiment with retrives, colors, blades, etc. now buzz baits i will use in stained water mostley. and mostly in the morning when the top bite is the best, unsless it is an overcast day. hope this helps

i need new line...
the main lines i like is suffix elite, and Berkley vanish.
-
Braided line vs. mono???
i use suffix braid EVERYWHERE. i just tie it straght to the lure, i mainly use braid with crank biats, spinner baits, and jigs when flippin. the reason i use it with cranks and spinner baits is that i think i get more feel of the bottom and everything i hit.
