10,000 lakes Bassin

I know this was a while ago but how'd you end up liking those Burikins? How do they compare to the good ol' magdraft?

I just checked here, 7 1/2in of snow and it’s still coming down.

3 bass over 8lbs from Iowa!? Awesome!!!

I wonder, maybe they’re less streamlined. I think @txchaser said something about them on an older post but I’m not sure.

Congrats!

I was looking at the Owner twist Lock flipping hooks and it got me wondering about flipping/punching with twist lock hooks. I could only think of positives about these saving a bunch of money on soft plastics, but what are the negatives? Not being able to tie a snell knot? lower hookup ratio? Has anyone here tried this style of flipping hooks? What did you think?

What trailer size do you think will look the best on them?

People maybe heard his name last year around the opens but I’d say lots of guys had never heard of him until he won.

Tournament was on Ray Roberts in Texas. It’s Fothergills first year on the elites this year, he qualified through the opens last year.

Thank you, that answers my question perfectly!

How heavy would you feel comfortable flipping/punching with on the 7'7H? Up to 1oz or maybe 1.25 in some think stuff? I can't decide between the 7'7 H and 7'6 XH exprides.

There is a whole new factor to consider on the hookset when in a canoe or kayak. You get pulled towards the fish! I am a braid to leader fan also.

I’ve heard of pike and Muskie snapping the line with their gill plates when they turn. Could this have been what happened or did you actually see the fish inhale the bait that far?

Do they have any zillion HDs?

@Dan N If I come knocking at your door you’ll know why!
