Mattlure Hard Bluegills Swim Baits

Missing anything not using braid?
Hello all. I am trying to get organized for the upcoming season. With that brings new questions. I am currently using Yo-Zuri Hybrid on all of my setups. I love the line and highly recommend it to all. With that said am I missing out by not using braid for certain applications? If so, which situations? Which brand/lb test do you recommend? Not sure if this matters but I primarily fish a semi clear body of water (visibility 3-6 feet). Thanks.

revo advice
I started out with the sx and was never able to get comfortable with it. I traded it in for a stx and have never looked back. To me the difference was huge in terms of casting and feel.

Owner Hooks
i was using my spinning outfit...yo-zuri #6. the hook was an ewg 4/0. i really think it was one of those fluke things. however i dont understand why they have the gap though...

Interesting
it reminds me of a primative "flappin Hawg"

Spro Frog hook set issues??? Anyone else or just me?
picked a few up last week. have not tried them yet but agree with you in terms of appearence. i would think there would be major hook set problems. looking forward to hearing others opinions...

Owner Hooks
I am very anal when it comes to my line and knots. I am 99% sure the knot (also a Palamor Knot) was tied correctly. I have such a sick feeling after loosing a fish like that
-
Which Shimano rod compares to IMX.
tough break...
-
Crucail or BPS
i started w/ a few BPS rods (70 million modulus) and did not like the feeling at all. i traded them in for a few avids and the difference is amazing. My vote is Avid all the way!!!

Tough Day on Occoquan
the occoquan is amazing. you just have to stick with it and the patterns will start to emerge. i fish there a few times a week. when the water is like you described i usually do best fishing very tight to structure down river.

Owner Hooks
Hello all. I normally use Gamakatsu hooks for all my soft plastics. I was bit by the bait monkey a few days ago and decided to give Owner hooks a shot. Long story shortI tied on an owner with a Senko this evening. I get a nice bite and set the hook. The fish takes one jump and my line appears to break. I am thinking to myself this line (Yo-Zuri soft) has NEVER broke on me before. I am furious and continue to reel my line in. Upon closer inspection of my line I realize my knot is still intact which means the knot slipped through the opening on the eye of the hook. Is this a normal problem with Owner hooks??? Why is there even an opening that allows this to happen???
