  1. Do Florida bass eat baby gators???
  2. I like it! I'm going to pre-rig some of those with a swivel on the end!
  3. I seldom fish a SB but when I do I give the bait a good jerk to get the blades going.
  4. This was my thought, Are you dealing with bass? Or could they be really small bass?
  5. Koi / Bass cross, very uncommon!
  6. You barely had a camera!
  7. Fishing in a tube is a tedious task, so I try to fish every likely-looking spot throughly. Sometimes I will use this approach: Top, Crank, bottom/plastics, in that order. edit: The post above was submitted while I was typing.
  8. Is this for real? Pick it out and try again! Cast easy at first!
  9. Fish for the fish you cannot see. Light line, long casts, dropshot!
  10. Snagged! Doesn't count!
  11. Pretty fish! You can test both scales with a known weight. My money is on the digi.
  12. If tribulation results in patience, you must be a pretty patient guy!
  13. Warning about FC on a spinning reel: The stuff has a mind of its own! Keeps flowing off of the reel even when the bail is closed! Nasty stuff!
  14. I have the Powell and am happy with it. Kinda wish it had more give in the tip to get more distance. I would not recomend mini guides for frogging. The stuff you pick up on the line, when fishing slop, clogs the tiny guides.
  15. Lower Otay is the hot lake right now. Hope you do not mind fishing with lots of company. There are rumors a plenty of San Vicente opening soon. It is likely that launch tickets will be by ticketmaster only. Lots of talk of a new world record!
  16. I think his approach is "textbook". He does not panic, he reels down / takes up slack, and leans into the fish. I think the reason many smaller fish do not get hooked is because they are taking the frog down by the legs. (why does this site not have spellcheck???)
  17. You may have done nothing wrong, you may have done everything wrong. To answer your question, "what happened?" You lost a fish on a frog! Happens pretty often. Watch Bama Bass on youtube. He has the frog hookset down!
  18. Unless you are taking up space, you do not need much. Just enough to cover the spool with a couple of layers.
  19. Imagine your disappointment were that a world record bass. It happened! Dickerson / Dottie!
  20. I bought two reels on ebay that came with braid on them. The line was tied directly and it slipped badly. Pretty sure the seller thought the drag did not work. My gain!
  21. He ended it with an exclamation point, what else do you want
  22. The problem would be the length of the rod. If you will be stream fishing, you will be dealing with a lot of brush. A rod under 5' is ideal. Get a cheapy rig at Walmart.
  23. Things are getting out of hand. Next thing you know they will have a lure imitating a whole school of bait fish... oh wait...
  24. Cangrats, fix the tip and you have a new catfish rod!
