  1. lol my gummy worms are gone before I hit the water!
  2. When I keep fish to eat. I give one good hit on the head to kill them and then into my center hatch they go.
  3. I like my e series better than the I. No experience with ci4+ but heard really good things about them.
  4. Never had any issues with hooksets on jigs or any other type of lure. I often fish spooks/lunkers/DWB for stripers and bass on my yak. No problems there.
  5. I use the reverse improved clinch knot on all my lines including braid. Never had one knot slip on me. great knot.
  6. wacky rig 5" worm. Usually a senko or yum dinger. This never fails me especially when I need one fish for the day so I can say I did not skunk lol.
  7. Chatterbaits are always tied on my rods when its windy!
  8. Bumping them on rocks,wood,cover works best. I rarely ever catch any thing throwing in open water.
  9. berkely or spiderwire from walmart. I have a big head and they have some that fit and dont squeeze my head. Plus I lost a pair overboard on my kayak. Shrugged it off and just bought a new pair. I would have gone crazy if I had bought some more expensive pair.
  10. 20lb sounds good since you are fishing in heavy vegetation.
  11. what reel are you using? You said you are new to baitcasting. Maybe put more brakes on?
  12. Strike king red eye lipless/sk kvd 1.5 and 2.5 squarebilles/ 5xd and 6xd/ pretty much strike king cranks all work. Ive tried more expensive lures but the sk's just flst out work.
  13. Yup that should work for an all around setup
  14. Nice! Looks like you got it all down. My problem is I always bring more gear than I need when on the bank. Way way way more than I need actually lol.
  15. maybe you put the drag stack back on in the wrong order?
  16. Ive never had a problem hooking up with the orings. Hook up ratio seems the same as if i didnt use the o ring.
  17. Yea thats what i figured. Mostly just gonna be used as trailers anyway. Ill see if they are worth the $3 savings.
  18. I use my *** 7'1 mh for so many applications. Jigs, frogs, topwater, spinnerbait, bladed jigs, 3/4 oz lipless cranks, etc. So versatile, great sensitivity and balance. Customer service is also top notch!
  19. Anyone have experience with the kicker fish tail slappers? Seen a video on youtube on these. They look good in the water and have that action on the fall like the fat impacts do. Anybody use these instead of keitechs or have any luck with them?
  20. shadow raps are nice indeed. great action and I have caught fish on mines. Only wish the hooks were stronger. Looks like they will bend eventually. They are super sharp though!
  21. lc Pointers. Duo realis and the shadow rap have been good to me as well.
  22. Search "Sealed Lead Acid Battery Charger UPG D1724" on amazon. I use this one and never had any problems with charging my battery. Cheap and works.
  23. I use a 12 v 8 ah battery for my fishfinder. Last all day and then some. As far as weight the battery weighs like 2 pounds if that? IDK but it has no effect on weight nor will you feel the difference between a rechargable 12v and 8aAA batteries while paddling.
  24. Much better to have both a spinning setup and a casting setup. There will be times where one setup is better suited for a situation than the other.
