Have you found EWG ball jigs to be as effective for weedless tube rigging as the stupid rig?

Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
I would prefer to buy it in person but none of the stores around here have a great selection of the rods I like.

Well that kinda sucks then because I already have a glass rod for 1/2oz weights. Just wanted one that could do up to 3/4. Lew's doesnt even have that rod with those specs on their site(which of course I checked after I got the rod).

Looks like TW info was off on the specs for what I ended up getting. Already sent them an email, so hopefully this gets clear up soon.

Lews Baitcaster Reels - Why So Many Models
It's probably in the same vein as Kirkland's vodka is actually Kettle One but they have a deal to sell it under the Kirkland name.

Stolen boat from BPS
That Bass Pro is one of the worst Ive ever been to. They do not treat customers very well and Ive even heard employees argue with customers about certain baits(very weird) I havent shopped there in years and dont ever plan on it. This story is not shocking that they are treating the customer like the enemy.

Ever go to the lake fully unrigged?
Can't say I've ever fished a squarebill on a spinning rod before. Is there any advantage to using a spinning reel instead of a BC?

Any near-death experiences(?)
Sorry, we're looking for more stage 5 survivors.

Lake fees?
Iowa should be paying me to fish their crappy lakes.

$110 Mill guaranteed is just crazy . Good for JJ though, he's obviously the best WR in the game.

I havent fished with mono in quite awhile(only use it for backing braid) but Wal-Mart was always an easy place to find them.

But what are your feelings about tournaments?

Livescope vs old ways
I fished a tournament about a month ago. Only used FFS when fishing deep brush piles. Most of the fish were pushed in the back of coves after a big storm, so all we needed were our flippin sticks. We have another tournament 4th of July weekend and Im sure the FFS will get used more(depending on weather)

5 things you dislike about bass fishing?
It's just one of those things were all you can do is kinda laugh and move on. It is a smaller private lake with a lot of homeowners who dont fish. At least, that's what I try to remind myself instead of trying to get all worked up about it.

5 things you dislike about bass fishing?
Nope. Instead they usually either fly by us or try to wedge themselves by in-between our boat and the bank.

Can’t get any bites on jigs
Fishing with a jig is awesome. Just make sure you're trying to find high percentage areas where you think the bass are.
