  1. Nice rainbow! Sweet!
  2. I would like to think I'm a good fisherman, LOL... Unless I missed something, the OP didn't mention spinnerbaits...so I only mentioned what worked for me today. Frustrating day. Spinnerbaits were def on my mind at times, though.
  3. I also use a pocket knife when on the water. Have to cut at an angle, slow from side to side as each strand gets snipped. Need a decent knife if you have thick leader...
  4. Welcome aboard! Welp. I fished the wind today. Had a few choice words for it, as well. Caught only 2 bass and both on drop shot. So hey, there ya go. Dropshot, or weighted wacky... My .02.
  5. Blue, I've been using braid + leader for a very long time and I've been using it for drop shotting, too. Got a buddy of mine hooked, as well, and he's caught some great bass of late with a 10lb leader using a Trick worm... FWIW.... As far as reels, I will only say that I prefer Shimano...Pfloogs are fine as well, just didn't fit my hands as well as Shimano's when I compared....My DSG special $99 2500 Stradic FJ has been absolutely awesome.
  6. Nice! VA warms up on Monday about 20º, then we're back in the 50s for our Spring Break.
  7. Good trip!
  8. Welcome aboard, Brett!
  9. I do not buy leader-specific line for bass fishing. Just use regular spools of fluoro or copoly. I do use leader line (mono) for tying my own weed guards.
  10. Awesome! Great memory for her.
  11. Beauty! I see you weighed her, what's the result?
  12. Welcome aboard!
  13. Sounds like a great time! Love testing new gear out.
  14. I'll take your word that's a giant! Congrats!
  15. Welcome aboard! Best advice is to read the articles and suggested stuff above. I pored over articles before joining years ago. Extremely helpful, IMO.
  16. Boomerang snips mostly. But those cheap, small scissors for kids you can buy at Walmart also work well.
  17. Noticed! Still playing with it...
  18. That's good to know, LC. Thanks for your update!
  19. Official welcome now that you're official and unveiled!
  20. Welcome aboard!
  21. Welcome aboard!
  22. Welcome aboard!
  23. Dang. I was too late to help. Sorry, mate!
