I used it several years ago before I started using yo-zuri and big game.

I set the hook as soon as I start to feel the tap tap tap.

I like to listen for them when they jump.

I'm getting hungry reading this thread.

I use the same abu's for bass and cat. I just change out the spools with different line.

Great story, congrats!!!

I'm reorganizing mine again. Trying to get the weight below 20 pounds.

I don't know if I could live in a state where I had to put on sunblock every day .

I don't own one. If its a dink, I'll lift him. If its a hawg, I'll lip him.

In 06 lake 35 had a large fish kill, due to the low water levels and hot weather. Went on it a couple of times last year, didn't do all that great. That lake does have some pretty good size muskie in it also.

I usually bring four. One rigged for a jig, one t-rigged with a small plastic, one rigged with a senko, and one stays locked in the car.

Weakest is a topwater. The most under used is a spinnerbait.

As soon as you get a backlash, a fish will run with your bait.

I don't go out looking for bedding bass , but if I happen to find some beds I will make a few casts.

A fish so small that some wiseguy asks if that is your trailer.

I love the weeds. Somewhere I read that when it get hot the bass will move into the thick stuff to get the oxygen from the weeds.

I have more confidence in some lures more than others, but I do have a lucky cap.

Where's Raul when you need him?????

Welcome Aboard!!!!!

Bass fishing is a sport. Collecting tackle is a hobby.

IMHO, this is how I have seen the serious crappie fisherman do it. They will always have several rods set up in rod holders on their boat with them set at various depths. The one thing that gets me though is how they manage not to get tangled. Me, I am more of a hands on kind of guy when it comes to fishing. I think they call that spider rigging????

Love the footloose and it works good as a wakebait also.
