    The FL has been leaked online for over a month now.

    Are we talking large swimbaits in the 1-6oz range? Or smaller keitechs under an ounce?

    @J Francho might be able to help

    I've driven over it but have never fished it. That being said, the BASS Elites have fished there twice in recent years. If you search around online, you should be able to see what those guys were throwing. I know KVD won using a Spybait and others have done well using a drop shot.

    I've thrown a few Evergreen crankbaits and they've all been VERY high quality baits. I do a lot of cranking in that 8-10' range. I may have to pick a few of these up. Thanks for feeding my bait monkey.

    It's working totally normal for me.

    Tatsu, hands down, regardless of money. Sunline Sniper and Pline Tactical for performance/cost ratio.

    Big chains like a BPS likely only place an order with a manufacturer or distributor once every so often. If they sell out before that time to order again comes, then you will see empty shelves. Sucks as a consumer, but that's the way most big chains do things.

    Two baits - Siebert Outdoors Sniper jig Lucky Craft Spinnerbait

    1oz. Matt Allen Dirty Jigs swimbait head with a 4.8" Keitech. Low and slow on the bottom.

    I have vented Costa's and they still fog if I pull my buff up too high. Outside of having a fan built into the inside of the glasses, there's no true way to prevent this in the heat and humidity.

    Literally anything in your tackle box will catch you a PB. Location and timing is FAR more important than what bait you are throwing. Don't get hung up on having the absolute perfect lure. My personal best largemouth came on a Rapala DT10 and my personal best smallmouth came on a Rapala Skitter Pop. Nothing fancy or top secret about them. The reason I caught those fish when/where I caught them is what helped me catch those PB's, not the lures.

    GanCraft Jointed Claw 230 and a Deps Slide Swimmer 250 has helped many a men land their PB's.

    Cheapest bait per fish for me - an old Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap or a Heddon Zara Spook.
  16. fishballer06
    My recommendations in this price range. Megabass Levante St Croix Avid (or Avid X) Shimano Zodias Gloomis E6X Dobyns Sierra

    This screams to me - Someone's wife got mad and sold all her husbands tackle for $10 to a pawn shop.
  18. fishballer06
    Fuego, Tatula, or SLX are what I would suggest. Buy Shimano or Daiwa and never look back.

    Friendly reminder everyone - 17 days until Guntersville. Get your picks submitted.

    I haven't used this lures or heard of this issue, but I suppose it's possible with that super thin and long circuit board lip. If yours is breaking a few feet in front of the knot, I'd guess that it's from abrasion on some sort of structure.
  21. fishballer06
    If you're using a rod that accommodates 50lb braid and you break said rod trying to free a snag, you weren't trying to free that lure the proper way to begin with.

    You'd be surprised how well that head comes through rocks. Dragging it over rocky bottoms has been the ticket for me, especially during the pre-spawn. Now that the spawn is going on, I've been swimming it until I get bumped by a bed guarder, and then pitching back into that spot and dragging the bottom until I get the bite I need.
  23. fishballer06
    Siebert Outdoors Sniper jig, dragging it slow and low. As someone who considers himself a moving bait guy, it's been an eye opening spring.

    Eco Pro Thunderspin is probably the best underspin I have found. Super high quality and it has a Trokar hook on it. The Revenge Underspins are also nice and come available from the factory with either silver or gold blades. So that's nice if you're particular about that. And like mentioned above, the Sworming Hornet is kind of the industry standard. However, for me, I've found them to corrode easier than other brands if you leave a bait on the jig. Maybe it's just me, but that has been my experience. I will say, the first tournament that I ever won I was throwing a Sworming Hornet with a 3.3" Keitech.

    Never hurts to buy an extra set of gears. I had DVT install a brass set for me in my 13's (the Curado K brass gears fit in the 13 Met).
