Keyes outdoors! Linder's Angling Egde City Limits

Alright guys i'm curious to know how many rods you guys are bringing out on a given day. I'm not saying tournaments cuz we all know more is better for that. Also, what is always rigged on some of those rods? Personally always rigged: -7' MH baitcaster = jigs -6'6" MH baitcaster = cranks -6'6" MH baitcaster = plastics -6'6" M spinning = flippin tube

i've heard of boiling. anyone do it?

5.3 lbs

i'd say the more DT's the better. huge fan of the DT6 and DT10

big bass are between 20"-24" and usually between 7lb-15lb big muskies are between 45"-55" and weigh 25lb-50lb what i'm getting at is for bass that only get around 2 feet max, the weight is unrealistic

When you are fishing a tournament, do you try everything until you find a producing lure or do you stick with a confidence bait until you find a pattern with it?

if its Minnesota, its northerns

I was wondering if anyone has drop shoted with braid and had success? I use 30lb dia of 8lb mono. I'm thinking if i pitch into weed pockets this should work? Thanks

I'm from the great state of 10,000 lakes and probably 10million fishermen. Which means in the metro are (where i fish tournaments) these fish see evey lure day in and day out. My question is, when you need to put fish in the boat, what presentations do you use? I'm going to start fishing much slower and with more finesse techniques like drop shots and so forth.

I've always had good luck with creatures in the spring time post-spawn period. My favorite is the BEAST

only use DT's and never broke on. only crank i've broke was a trap that my dumb face smacked on the outboard...

3-4 pounds. kids not that big

hahaha clever

not sure if i spelled that right. anyway, i'm startin my first season of tournaments and my boat has a livewell with no airater. any suggestions for adding one? would a minnow bucket one work and filtering water every so often?

Not really sneaked up on the season, but i have my first tournament the june 3rd and still have some work on the boat to do. To answer questions: Largemouth stained water 3-4ft clarity couldn't tell you water temps but guessin low 60's high 50's milfoil, some pads but probably not much growth

Thank you that vid was great help!

how do you identify beds?

If you were on a metro area lake, could you call a CO and have them meet you on the lake with your fish in a net to keep its survival percentage high?

Alright so Minnesota's bass season is sneakin up here in a couple weeks and I gotta pregame. What is your most successful lure for spring? I'm thinkin 1/4oz jig's, 1/16th oz tubes, with some weightless plastics.

Whats your fall go to lure for pig bass? Mine is the jig!

What lures and presentations are you fishing this time of the year? I'm doing deep cranking, and pitching in the reeds.

I have Angling Edge Largemouth Bassology. Excellent DVD. I recommend it to everyone. I just got 'hardcore' into bass fishing and that DVD really helped me.

Don't think I'm going outta town this weekend, but should be bassin' here in the north metro. Any word on some good lakes that are heating up?? I'll probably go to White Bear for bass/musky and I would also like to try Big Marine.
