Yeah it's funny how guys are....kinda like hand poured worms are so much better than the ones mass produced...come on.....I've caught plenty of bass on zooms etc....There is also a guy we fish against in local tournaments that only fishes the Ned rig. Well, have yet to see him place in the money yet. Gotta be able to find them and see what they want by matching what they normally feed on. Plus, the ancient jig & trailer still puts big girls in the boat for me.
