When was Toledo Bend impounded? October 3, 1966 Toledo Bend lake record is 15.67 lbs, set by Bill Cook of Houston, Texas on February 11, 2023 Texas ShareLunker's genetic research has proven that regardless of food source if the proper genes are not present in the bass, it will never obtain record status.

Tornadoes occur during sever weather, they knew that but went out anyway. Can't fix stupid 😉

@N Florida Mike An explanation of just how much "weedy" ya talking might be helpful.

That perfectly fits the Lite Medium Heavy, I would add it handles weightless plastics like a Wacky Rigged Trick Worm. The 7' 3" Medium Heavy if better suited for 1/4, 3/8, 1/2 oz with biggest plastics. It's also a great jig rod It comes down to personal preference

I have 2 ea TP1B70MH Worm Rods & 1 ea TP1B74H Pitching Rod The 7' MH are excellent worm/jig rods for weights 1/8-1/2 oz. The 7'4" H is excellent frog rod, flipping-n-pitching rod, & Medium punch rod up to 1 oz. Pretty agree with @Brian11719 accessment

Reservations for 5 days on the Big Pond, dates to be determined.

Buzz Worms comes in 8" & 12", I've had better luck with the 8" in green pumpkin blue tail. I would also suggest Yamamoto's 10” Ichi Worm, it's made from Yamamoto’s Mega Floater Formula, which makes the tail stand up off the bottom. It's heavy enough to good distance unweighted.

IDK 😉 2007 was my best year ever on Toledo Bend, the lake level was 15' low. I generally target 15' +/- 3', which means where I normally fish I was walking around kicking dust. I ended the year with 11 double digits including a 12 lb 8 oz PB. 2008 the lake level came back up to normal, the fish scattered & the big bite fell off

Wow 🙏

@Glenn I have a little experience with cell phone coverage around Toledo Bend. Quite often I have to ride around in the truck to get a signal or walk around outside the camp. But most of the designated weigh sites have wifi for cell phones & a land line to reach ShareLunker.

Medium Heavy that leans towards Heavy, X-Fast because I want to get into the backbone asap. I want to turn that head & get her coming up all in one motion.

I don't give my rods names, that way if I throw a worm on a spinnerbait rod it doesn't get confused. My favorite "worm" rod was a Shimano Crucial 6' 10" Medium Heavy X-Fast, it was rated by Shimano as a spinnerbait specific rod. Sorry but not even Gary Loomis can tell me what I like in a rod.

100% Catt specific 😉

Even with FFS next after location is timing; just because you don't get bit does not mean the bass aren't there or you tied on the wrong lure. It could just be they simply aren't feeding. . To consistently catch bass is a process of elimination & duplication. Eliminate patterns & waters that are non-productive, & duplicate patterns and waters that are productive.

I've 2 things with FFS 1. I can catch bass with FFS 2. I can get skunked with FFS
