Best stuff I've ever found for bike tires though.

Send a big check to the IRS. That will put a hurtin on the bait monkey for a while.

Converted from Spro to Pad Crashers. Booyah last much longer, work just as well and are less expensive.

When my NRX gets too sensitive I just put on my welders gloves.

A long cast is when your lure hits you in the butt (think about it)

U-40 all of mine (it helps me catch bigger fish)

Sorry for the confusion, the bite was pretty consistant all afternoon. When the fat albert was replaced I started picking up smaller fish with the Yamamotos. I had not caught any bass less than a pound up to that point, once the trailer was replaced I started catching smaller bass on a consistant basis and fewer larger bass were caught.

We must be talking about different baits. The 5'' D/T Grub from Yamamoto and the Zoom Fat Albert Twin Tails appear to me to be almost the exact size, but the zoom is a little heavier 6.5g compared to 5.5g

Fished today with a black & blue jig. I had only one fat albert left but I managed two 3 pound plus bass and four 2-3 pounders and four 1-2 pounders with nothing smaller than that. When that trailer was replaced with the same color Yamamoto twintail I immediately started picking up smaller bass and many of them, with only a few of the 2-3 pounders the rest of the day. I was fishing a smaller pond so I was basically fishing the same areas every 60 to 90 minutes. Do you think that trailer made that much difference or was it just a coincidence?

I generally do better with darker colors

I've used Spro for many years, last year I tried a Pad Crasher and found it to be MUCH more durable than the Spro. I mean not even close. They both walk well and I've noticed no change in my hook up ratio.The Pad Crasher is less money and is now my go to frog.

Fat Albert Twin Tails

My sons would leave the plastic on until they caught a fish "worth of the rod". Very seldom did the plastic last the first day. The U-40 sealer is a great way to go IMO. I use it on all my rods.

How much of the information is lost on a 698ci compared to the 598 and 798

Shrink tubing works MUCH better for me.
