Weightless T-rigged flukes and senkos skip REALLY well

Tubes also skip very well.  I started using those around docks last season in addition to the weightless stick baits.

Never caught a bass trolling. That fact is ironic as I learned structure fishing from the master and trolling SpoonPlugs was the basis for learning to fish different structures. When I started fishing from a boat, it had no motor and the first accessory I added to it was a Humminbird flasher. I used it to find all different structures on our summer home lake.  When I was finally able to purchase a boat with a motor, again my first addition was a depth finder, but I never got into trolling.

I have never owned a Shimano product. I have about 50 Daiwa reels and have had every other brand of reel and rod imaginable but have never had a single shimano product.

Sounds like a severe case of Shimanophobia, with a healthy side of Daiwaphilia. Can you show me on the doll where Shimano hurt you?

 

I kid.

 

Is there something about Shimano that repels you that strongly?

Very bad.

Nothing. I know they are quality products and I have cast a few friends but I have never wanted one. I particularly dislike the DC reels and their noise. Centrifugal brakes, I am not used to, and I can cast my daiwas like a champ.

All you people who can’t catch a chatterbait bass, try a minimax!

I catch more on the 3/8 vibrating jig.  I can't get a bite on the minimax.  Maybe when the temps get cooler.....

That minimax is a killer! Spot remover color + Yamamoto Shad shape worm = 6-13s

Never have I ever lost a rod by dropping it into the lake.  That is something my dad and wife can't say.

I’m on the same team as your dad and wife. Made the team probably a dozen times if flipping a canoe counts

I gotta say no.  These were actually dropped into the lake.
