  1. Pop-R.
  2. I've been using a Super Hog, or an Ultra Vibe Speed Craw.
  3. Jigs and T-rigs for me. I can't remember the last time I fished a C-rig, but I know it has been a while.
  4. Use what works in your situation. In the spring and fall, I'm using more baitcasters. During the summer I use a lot of small plastics, so I use spinning more.
  5. I use the BPS Stik-o and the Yum Dinger.
  6. Those look like some healthy bass.
  7. During a normal week, I can get out at least once. It may be for only 2 or 3 hours, but I manage to squeeze some fishing in.
  8. I've had a cough, runny nose, and watery eyes going on for two weeks now. The first thing I do when I get up in the morning is take Claritin.
  9. I use the same rod for finesse jigs that I use for heavier jigs. St. Croix MH/F 6'6" Premier.
  10. Gold is right up there with chrome / blue back and crawfish color.
  11. I use to peg my weights, but I never noticed any difference in the bite or the action. Now I never peg weights.
  12. The only frog color I've ever used is white bottom with a green pattern on top.
  13. I've never used it. When I get home I go through my plastics and if they are not torn too badly, then I just melt the plastic back together with a hot knife.
  14. I've used one of the red BPS Extreme Qualifier bags for the past 9 years now.
  15. Good video! This one hits the mark.
  16. I went fishing several times in March and April when it was cold enough for ice to form in the shallow water. On the trips when it was warmer, the wind gusted so hard I had to take cover back in coves or just forget the boat altogether and fish off of the bank.
  17. Planning all week for a trip on the weekend and then have the weather change. This past weekend was the first weekend this year where we didn't have 20+ mph winds, or a cold front move through. Naturally it was Mother's Day weekend.
  18. Pitching a jig into cover, or working it over the top across structure. I love it when the jig settles back down to the bottom and you feel that thump on the end.
  19. They are a blast on light tackle. The biggest I have ever caught was around 2 lb., but boy did it fight.
  20. The lakes I fish are stocked with largemouth, catfish, some musky, some hybrid bass, striped bass, and tons of sunfish. It is a rare trip when I only catch bass.
  21. If you can save the license to your phone then great, but if you need a network to pull the license then you might have a problem in areas that have no coverage.
  22. Certain rigs get certain line sizes. Baitcasters that I fish with jigs, big Texas rigs, and large moving baits get 15#. Spinning reels get 10#, and the ML and UL get 6#. I have extra spools for the spinning reels if I need 8# lines added.
  23. Zoom in the 6" size.
  24. I look for the sunfish that are spawning. Most of the time I can see them from the shore. After I find them I start fancasting out past the beds to the bass that are sitting out in the deeper water.
