    How is it for frogging? Is it too fast to get a good hookset?
  2. Joshua Vandamm
    That’s absurd! Get the metanium for 220! They two reels arnt even comparable.

    I’m looking to get a good jerkbait rod in the 6’6 range for wading. Can anyone compare the 6’6 expride A with the jdm 6’5 orochi xxx for ½ oz jerkbait fishing?
  4. Joshua Vandamm
    You really don’t need over 100yrds. A 40yard cast is a bomb. The bigger issue is line size. It’s difficult to cast heavy mono from a small reel.

    Where the treatment plant discharge at? thanks!!

    5.7 last week burning a chrome lipless. “Hunting” divers are a different animal... but fast is fast. LOL They suggested it pulled bites like and a-rig. I think that was a mistake. Just not possible. It’s a crank. I’m sure it’s good. I ordered 4. But that’s just over selling

    Never the less... ?

    The big one is great at night. bass smash it

    Who makes that rat?
  11. Joshua Vandamm
    Teckel doesn’t even plop. It wags. LOL I don’t know why people call it a weedless plopper. It’s not. BUT... cut the tail off a rage shad and replace that dumb boot. Plops loud.

    Colder denser water has more O2. - Marine biology major in college. LOL
  13. Joshua Vandamm
    Canal?
  14. Joshua Vandamm
    False. The deeper colder water is O2 rich. The turnover increases o2 throughout the water column. Fishing May be depressed during this period but not for this reason. More likely increased turbidity reduces feeding.
  15. Joshua Vandamm
    Yep. Because it’s hard to describe. Most experienced fisherman just say they hate braid and leave it at that. LOL. But what pro uses braid leader for anything but spinning and Topwater? Not a single one By wrong I mean using brakes not thumbing. Most high level angles don’t use breaks at all.
  16. Joshua Vandamm
    They’re for different things. Flukes have less action but spiral like dying Shad... For colder weather. Senkos just get bit. LOL. If it’s not early prespawn or late fall and your fishing shallow go senko

    If you know how to cast right braid is harder to prevent backlash’s with than anything else
  18. Joshua Vandamm
    When I have to yea but bites definitely decline. I think they sense the vibrations from it. Finesse it works fine.
  19. Joshua Vandamm
    They’re biting. What area are you in?
  20. Joshua Vandamm
    It hasn’t recovered yet. Biggest bass are shy of 3lb. There’s a ton of big carp tho.

    NP happy to share. The spinners I got one of those 5 packs for $3 on ebay. LOL works perfectly well. Blades I’ve only tried 2 or 3 kinds. So far the hexagonal “shakee” blades with bubbler holes from jans Netcraft were marginally better than an eBay 50 pk. The lighter the blade the better. They all work tho. Very versatile ...I was surprised this one actually works well. Finally found a use for the 4” storms. LOL
  22. Joshua Vandamm
    Nice. I like that yellow perchie skirt. Decoy makes good small ones for sure. The 34lb size would work perfectly
  23. Joshua Vandamm
    I’m not a fan of these frogs tbh but they are weedless. Swivels behind the body and small. ?‍♂️ my issue is they just don’t “plop” that well. Neither do savage gear frog plopper trailers. I get better action adding a rage Shad tail. Or just use a rage Shad. LOL
  24. Joshua Vandamm
    It’s a issue for FC. Braids so easy to cast I don’t need the DC. BUT I have braid on now anyways because of the thumb bar issue
  25. Joshua Vandamm
    Spinnerbaits work really well surprisingly. I get 30% or so more bites with the blade stuck out an inch or two ahead.
