I use an Aetos 7' mh/fast for jigs up to 3/4oz.. I just flat out enjoy using it. Next Wednesday we're going to our local F&G and throwing nothing but jigs, it's the only rod I'm taking. Brian.

I ordered a new Shimano JDM Reel yesterday. Thought better about it and cancelled the order. Just got online and ordered 2 of them and 4 spools of JDM Toray Nylon. Oh well. Brian.

3-Ark Money Makers, 3-Shimano Chronarch G HG's spooled with 50 lb. Fins Pitch Black, 5" Swimbaits, Popping Frogs, Burner Worms. The end. Brian.

Brother that's AWESOME!!!! Thanks much, Brian.

We were fishing the Suskie one day and my Bud was hammering them on Senkos, I was throwing everything but a Senko. He finally turned and ask me "why aren't you throwing a Senko?", I replied "I know they're hitting that". Get it? Brian.

Same Pond all the same bait, 3.75" Green Pumpkin purple/copper paddletail. Caught about 20 Bass too. Brian.

Make sure your brakes are on and not off. Brian.

1. Squarebill 2. Lipless 3. Jig, standard and bladed. Brian.

Just purchased 2 identical rods, one of them makes a clicking noise on the cast. It's in the handle area and the rod will be returned immediately. I'm not having a handle component fail down the road, conveniently after the warranty runs out. The sound is extremely irritating to me. Brian.

I'm not doing anything the next few months........just saying. Brian.

No.

I throw a Bluebasser 3/8oz. Bladed Jig in Bluegill w/a Kalin Scrub GP trailer. It hunts like a beast and it's a BIG fish magnet. Brian.

I'll second this, I've tried a bunch of different lines from high end JDM to the lower cost lines and always come back to McCoy. Brian.

That's what the Crisper Drawer in your fridge is for. Brian.

He gets a bit worked up.

Kalin Scrub. Brian.

Caught a mess of these. Think they're Mayan Cichlids. Brian.

We stopped at 3 of them on the way home from Florida and all had the sale. Call your Gander Outdoors and inquire. We were told they have warehouses jammed full of stuff from all the store closings. GY Senkos at $3.50 a pack, War Eagle spinnerbaits at $3.64, etc., etc..

Gander Outdoors all fishing 50% off, in store only. Brian.

My Grandfather always ask me "Are you Bass fishing or just randomly casting around". Big difference between casting around and putting your presentation on the fish. Brian.

That's horrible. Please don't share stories like these. As soon as the 13 Metanium was introduced I ordered one immediately from Japan Lure Shop. When they were released I waited with the patience of Job. It finally arrived and not wanting to wait to get into the house, I opened the package on the bed of my truck. Removing the sideplate for a closer inspection, I dropped it on the driveway taking a big chunk off it's edge. I feel ya Brother, Brian.

You can go to the Japan Tackle website and look at the spinning reel archives, that might give you the name. Brian.

Whacky Rigs spin like mad twisting your line horribly. Untwist it every now and again. Brian.

I also help my Wife with raising her Olde English Bulldogges. Our current litters, 3 weeks and 2 weeks. Brian.

Mechanical Engineer, Plant Engineering Mechanic, retired at 45, I fish Professionally now. Brian.
