I have read somewhere it's something to do with genetics like a pure read hunting dog as the capability to grow larger than a mut. I beleive it has to do with the fishes capable weight especially for smaller fish

That sounds more like blue gill behavior to me are there any stragglers that are brave out of the group. Also are they all about the same size

Try scaling down lures or using live bait just to test

Shad most likely were they schooling and jumping or just swimming around ?

Move here I'm like 30 minuets from there there are some Great Lakes around here. Norman especially, we love it here there's lots of tourneys here if your into that. Also were getting a cabelas very soon. Cost of living is low as there are a lot of new developments and apartments going up all the time. Fly out here for a week or 2 and see how you like it . Then decide if you people are friendly and the BBQ quite amazing. Also school systems are not all that great unless you move just south into York county in South Carolina if your looking to start a family consider that. I live in lake Wylie there is basically no crime except for little things. There was 1 double homicide here this year that's it. We're would you be working ? I can recommend some Better areas and some not so great ones.

Upgrade to a 4/0 hook that way you will get thought the plastic easier

I actually met my best friend this way. I was fishing and I could see him looking at me he was kinda shy at first then decided to introduce himself. We started fishing and we fished every single day for about 3 months. It's been 2 years were still good friends that's the day I caught the one In my profile pic. He was my lucky person for the next month. Sometimes it can be a good thing. walleye fishing in Lake Erie I see this quite often they come straight toward you until the last minute when they tangle your whole planer board setup. We have even gone as far as to put a scrambler in our radio.

All I care about is if ewoks are in it..

Rage craws and grubs

But how do we determine what scale is correct ?

The A- rig takes no skill IMO it does mimick a school of bait fish. Obviously bass are going to eat it.

1&3 check out true south custom lures they are amazing. Hand tied double powder baked heads and amazing colors.

Most Ohio lakes only have panfish and lots of craws that's atleast how it is in the 10 that I have fished

Zoom lizards 6 or 8 inch 4/0 EWG

Maybe there looking for a quarterback for Sunday

If your going that time focus on the shad and go from there as far as bait choice

Creme

BPS or smith wick I dunno

Probably not the only a rig I throw is a Shane's baits finesse rig. Also is the longer rod better or does it not Mat

Thanks for your help I'm going to go with the okuma and 300 series Cardiff

Will do thanks for the help. and I was planning on braid with a flouro or mono leader depending on conditions. Also how big are the 200 and 300 series as far as the fit in your hand? That Lexa looks very nice, do you recommend it because of a out of line capacity ?

I was planning on a lews super duty unless you can recommend anything better for that price range

It looks to be a velociraptor or most commonly known as a Chris bosh

I'm trying to figure out what rod to use for at most a 3 ounce swim bait and a least a 1 ounce I can't pick between a Powell inferno or a okuma guide series big bait rod. Any suggestions max budget is 150$

I just received my BASS and FLW magazines in the mail both had several new baits 5 from yum 1. Thump in dinger senko with a curly tail 6 inch 2. Swim in dinger basically a swim senko 4 and 5 inch 3. Kill shot a flat grub with a ribbed body and a raised tail ridge it 3 and 3/4 of a inch 4. Warning shot ribbed body with a small and thin tail 3 and 3/4 of a inch 5. Sharp shooter smooth robo worm like body with a spear head tail 4 and 1/2 and 6 inch So I'm thinking there's some new baits coming out over at yum also TWH only has 4 yum baits
