so with treble hooks, what hooks would you recommend to replace them with? I would expect it to be pretty hard to find little tiny trebles for bfs lures. I have always been a fan of the mayor, and usually have 2-3 packs in my bag. as for the others, I will for sure grab the whale, mononofu, and rozante. As for the cranks on the list, I have never had luck on crank baits, you still think I should get them? I'm in Florida, so there is a ton of grass and stuff for them to get caught in.

so with the curado, would a 150 MGL be a good fit?

alright. thanks for the explanation. the site was down for quite a bit, so sorry for the delay. i recently got a curado bfs and a dobyns sierra ultra finesse, so i will definitely be grabbing the humpback and spark shad. i already have those keitech jigheads, and they do wonders for me. thanks for the recommendation.

So looking at the spark shad, it seems pretty similar to a crushcity mayor. Also, what would you rig one of those guys on? I love the SV 3, my buddy caught a 14 pounder on one of those guys. Finally, it looks like that great hunting humpback is a BFS style bait. what others from that list would be considered bfs?

Thank you! gotta love Florida. I'm checking out the lowrider, would you say the 7 ft MH "all round" would be the best option? I was planning on using the curado 150 MGL for the reel, as I have a weird thing of kind of turning away from 100 size reels. I am a huge Shimano fan, but I do really want to try out a diawa with those fancy t wings, but I just always see shimano and it feels like a warm hug, lol. what would your thoughts be on that, would that reel be good or should I grab a daiwa? Also, what line would you recommend?

I feel like something for mainly top water, but I since I cant afford 6 different rods, I just want to be able to have a wide range of things I can throw.

I definitely will. I just pulled the trigger on a karashi, pop max, and a oneten Jr.

been seeing more and more stuff on megabass. the vision oneten has always been a hit, but I'm hearing about this bfs Karashi? looked it up and its not cheap. none of their baits are, but they do get a lot of praise. im mostly pond hopping, so not using any sonar, which I see megabass is highly associated with. should I invest in megabass or not, and why?

bfs has definitely blown up. the pressure bass have been getting in recent years has blown up. bass are eating smaller and smaller lures, so a light casting rod and reel is the way to go. but yeah man, I get it. every time you take a break from fishing its like you go through withdrawal!

starting to really expand my arsenal, and trying to phase out some cheaper rods. planning on a frog/flipping rod, chatter bait rod, bfs rod, and glide bait rod. but as I'm going through, I start to wonder about all around versatility, something for pond hopping or what not. looking for a medium heavy casting rod that can cover mostly anything, topwater, chatter baits, small glides (SPRO KGB lil guy), jigs, worms, ect. please give any recommendations on the combo y'all have for this stuff, not looking for anything super expensive, but I guess that's all relative I suppose. Definitely no Metanium DC level stuff though, because that's a bit out of the price range. Thanks!
