That's me, it's just part of the fun of bass fishing. I have been fishing everything from lightning rods to GLX's and my NRX so far this season. For the past couple of weeks, I have been really enjoying using my new Mojo Bass rods. I'm just a hopeless collector. .....lol.
As far as catching more fish, I believe that if you really like what you're using, you will be more focused and fish with more confidence. Therefore, more fish. Just a thought.
