I want to know what the best leader brand and pound test for clear water with visibility up to 3-4 feet, but we have 6-7 pounder bite so it has to handle big fish

I'm looking for a very strong swivel for my Carolina rigs or should I not even bother to use a swivel

Culprit 12" junebug, it's caught so many of my PB's and friends PB's, usually go with the lightest weight you can get away with, it's looks more realistic, I use either a 3/16 or a 1/4 lead weight unpegged and a 5/0 owner round bend, I wouldn't use it for flipping brush because the tail gets caught up in the limbs, but if you want a great all around the ZOOM ol' monster 10 1/2 is perfect The key to catching any worm fish is to fish it as slowly as possible, it gives the bass a better chance at grabbing the whole thing, and it looks more realistic, big bass get big by being smart, so a more realistic presentation will always get you a more big bites,also try to target as much structure as possible, bass will always hold to structures Culprit 12" junebug, it's caught so many of my PB's and friends PB's, usually go with the lightest weight you can get away with, it's looks more realistic, I use either a 3/16 or a 1/4 lead weight unpegged and a 5/0 owner round bend, I wouldn't use it for flipping brush because the tail gets caught up in the limbs, but if you want a great all around the ZOOM ol' monster 10 1/2 is perfect The key to catching any worm fish is to fish it as slowly as possible, it gives the bass a better chance at grabbing the whole thing, and it looks more realistic, big bass get big by being smart, so a more realistic presentation will always get you a more big bites,also try to target as much structure as possible, bass will always hold to structures

I use 3/0-4/0 for the 3.8, for the 4.3 use 4/0, 4.8 use 5/0

Definitely BPS, they last a good while and they have a good wobble on a wacky rig, you can't beat the 30pk for 10$, my second choice is the strike king shim-e sticks, they come in packs of 7 or 8, and their only 4$ I think, they also have a good wobble on a wacky rig. The SK have a lot slower fall so I use them for shallower water as well

I WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU'RE FAVORITE TRAP IS?? ALSO DO YOU LIKE THE BABY RATTLER KIND TRAPS, OT THE ONE KNOCKER TYPE TRAPS

Thanks guys for the help, after spending hours on tackle warehouse, I've settled on duckett, which pains me because I'm a st. Croix guy. I'm trying to decide between the triad, micro magic, and the terex all in 7'MM

I'm in need of a good cranking rod for the 0'-15' range

I'm going to Ross and wondering how to catch them good and where,, usually catch 3-4 everytime using a frog, spinnerbait, and a keitech, usually fish the upper side in the pads, but wherever else we go we don't catch any

I rarely ever throw crankbaits, and actually just getting a cranking setup after 3 years of serious bass fishing, and figured I was missing out on an important skill, so I'm going to invest into a cranking setup, (st. croix premier 7'MH and Lews BB-1) and I was wondering what king of line to use, obviously braid and mono are out because they float

I want to throw swimbaits (7"+) and was looking at smash-tech convict and osprey swimbait and rig the with owner 10/0-12/0 beast hook, I have a 7'4 heavy with 65* braid to 25* leader, my friend used a similar setup but with straight 20* mono and had great success, just wondering what swimbaits y'all use

I've been breaking off a lot recently and don't know why but there it always a little curve at the end of my line where the line breaks, so I figured that it was my knot (improved clinch knot) it has never broke before but just started breaking and lost confidence in it, if respooled line and it keeps breaking so now I'm using the san deigo jam knot and heard tons of good things about it, just wondering what y'all think

Do you ever catch any size there, went there a few weeks ago and caught a few 2's and 3's but nothing big

Do big lizards(8+ inches) catch big bass, I've watched a few BAMABASS vids and wondering if anyone else has luck on then or it's just his magical touch that he has... I bought 4 packs of 8" ZOOM lizards in pumpkin chartreuse and also grabbed some spike it chartreuse dye for the tails. Also weighted or unweighted? (He used unweighted)

It wouldn't hurt to try em, they're cheap so if you break one off, it doesn't hurt near a bad as when i lose one of my 7$ war eagle spinnerbaits

Well once you get the hang of it, you can get a solid 20yrds Especially with a 3/8-1/2 ounce spinnerbait It's crazy how good they are for like 2$, the frog like hooks pin them so well. I still use them

I started out with a 5"8 button cast rod and reel from the great place called "Walmart" I used the tried and true H&H spinnerbaits, and 10lbs test, and the rest was history, I now fish almost 4 days a week, and have a few baitcasters and more lures than I know what to do with

I don't know when one is better other than the buzztoad is weedless (obviously) what are the benefits of a buzz bait what are the benefits of a buzztoad

And also what's the best for sight fishing, is amber still a good option

I'm wanting my first pair of fishing glasses and I'm looking at the strike king PLUS glasses and wonder what are the best all around lens color???? I'm fishing ponds, lakes and some inshore, and the water clarity is usually in between stained and somewhat clear but never super dirty

Well the water has around 2" of visibility now and not sure what to use, no pads or grass, they eat mainly small minnows and crawfish, no bluegill in there over 5" that I've seen, a and some giant crappie Is this the info you need?? ^^

I've been fishing a pond for over 8 years and noticed for the past month and a half that it has a light green film over it, and the bite went from 7-8 bass in 1 hour to *** in 2 hours. I'm really confused on what to use, so far what has worked best is a small baby bass rattle trap. The pond is around 7ft at its deepest
