welcome! lots of information to be had here not to mention a great nova crowd.

here is the hook i use...4/0 http://www.***.com/descpage-O5139.html I use as little weight as possible. Usually 1/4 ounce tungsten. Below is an example of the type weights I use. http://www.***.com/descpageTRUTERM-TTBW.html I usually "bounce" it similar to a jig. very effective lure.

as the title suggest. I'm thinking of going and wanted to see if anyone else was???

those look great.

I fish them anywhere I throw a texas rig. They are very good flipping bait in heavy cover due to its small profile.

We need more details. Primary purpose? Rod power (m, mh)? Most importantly, price point?

Thats what the smallmouth wade is for, what better way to bond then to point at and laugh at whomever takes a spill on the slippy rocks ;D Yeah but I know we have some guys who wouldn't be able to do a wade. I think we need to do a big gigantic tournament and set up some boaters with nonboaters at a big lake or river. count me in!!!

WOW!!!

that works hit me up Friday night. maybe next week we'll take the boat to blue plains...weather permitting.

nope just fishing. you?

Thai when are you back in town? i have a long weekend this week and would love to get out a few days over the weekend.

I texas rig it with an owner 4/0 ewg and use the lightest weight I can get away with.

I thought for sure you would say SEBILE!!!

hahahahaha

made this post yesterday. may help explain things. http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1263163297

great read. many thanks.

I've done well w/ aaron's magic, green pumpkin and midnight.

this is what i use...4/0 http://www.***.com/descpage-O5139.html

no need to worry. If your rod is a MH or H you should be fine for flipping. I personally would recommend 50-65lb braid. This set up should also work well as a froging rod.

hahahahahaha

my thoughts exactly

here are my choices in order from cheapest to more expensive. St. Croix Mojo MBS70MF Spin Rod 7' Medium St. Croix Avid AVS68MXF (as RW mentioned) St. Croix Xtreme XS70MF Spin Rod 7' Medium

Is the pressure for cats and trout mainly? if so, that is not a high pressure spot for bass. What have you been using that has not been producing the results you hoped for?

d**n RW now I have a choice to make!

I stumbled upon this article in the "fishing articles" section at the top of this page. Great explanations for ACTION and POWER of a rod. Thought it might be of help for those confused about a new rod purchase. http://www.bassresource.com/fishing/rod-actions-power.html
