I was using a perch lure just throwing it out and retrieving. On the cast before i landed a pickerel and i swear i saw that bass chasing and sizing it up so i went right back and sure enough booom. I need to replace the treble hooks on the lure. Worth it!
Well its been sitting in the shed brand new for a few months and i think i finally figured it out. I haven't got to test it out on the water yet though.
I tied on a spinner bait and was adjusting the knobs and and when i press the button it drops down smooth.
when i try something lighter like say a tube worm do i just play with the drag until that drops down as well and so on?
I been nailing them recently in the river by me (117 Mile Long) i just tie up a 3-4 oz weight and use a smaller size hook. My preffered bait i like to use is Nightcrawlers! they absolutely love those things.
and watch your rod! I lost a surf rod about a week ago i forgot to set my drag and it shot out of the rocks like a bullet! Was like a scene from jaws seeing my rod take off underwater. I jumped in after it but it was to fast lol. But other than that have fun! Their alot of fun railing in!
Had a nice night for like 2 and a half hours until the bugs started to attack relentlessly. Found a small honey hole litteraly kept casting off the dock into the same spot. Got 4 pickerel and 3 bass. This being the biggest.
Went down to the merrimack river yesterday for a few hours. It was the first time this season i saw a few fish jumping out of the water so i guess that's a good sign
the walmart by me always has the light combo spinning setups for $20
i have 3 big surf rods i picked up for the same money i use in the river. Can't beat it
I'm gonna go down to the Merrimack tomorrow since its a nice 5 minute walk down the hill from my house. First outting of the season and its suppose to be nice out.
Well i said to myself over the winter that i was DONE with spinning reels. Took me long enough to make the change over to a baitcaster but i did. I heard this was a pretty good reel for someone like me who was just starting out with one. Was wondering if anyone has one or used one in the past. How do you like it?
lol i know someone like that, he got a huge not in his spool and he was kinda far down the bank and all i hear is F*** and i see him breaking his rod over a tree.. then i hear a splash his reel went into the water lolol.. i just shook my head
