    These may not be anything special, but it's been a while since I've had multiple bass in such a short period of time. These sweet baits did not cost much. Bait monkey saved my wallet this time.

    I love fishing jigs. Recently I was thinking about the color choice of jig skirt & head. Are so many colors necessary? Should the color of the trailer match the head color? And what’s your favorite color?

    Floating rod with sinking reel. Will it be sinking or floating?

    Frogs can always catch some big fish. But if you want it to become a habit rather than an occasional stroke of luck, you're going to change the way you fish for bass. Something like knowing the patterns of bass behavior. Try more different techniques and spend more time on the water, your pb bass may occur next time. Seems that bait monkey found you again.

    I only use braid for frog fishing. Not saying you can't use other lines, but it's not ideal and you're going to miss some fish. And I agree with what the reel ess said. If you're going to use mono, then use the line no less than 50#.

    Planned to get one and finally chose the cheaper one of other brand. Better to go though the reviews on amazon before purchase.

    Though I'm not quiet understand what he said, but I'm still get addicted to the videos. Thanks for sharing.

    How much do you know about Bait Finesse System? Do you own a BFS reel for bass fishing? I was wondering why trout fishermen don’t use BFS reels since it’s difficult to start fly fishing. Lol

    Don't forget electric toothbrush But to be honest, I only use the clean mode though it can be switched to 3 different modes, thought I would use all of them before I purchase. We often want more than we actually need.

    I don't think any fish are "line shy" Sometimes lighter line helps you present a bait better. But in my opinion, fish will react to every changes in the surrounding. So i believe it may influence fish's reaction if you use visible line color.

    So what feature do you think matters most?

    Have you guys heard of double gear ratio spinning reels? Something flashed in my head when i first heard of that. Does it mean that we don’t need to take 2 or 3 reel & rod combos with us when go outside fishing? Will the two ratio both match one specific action & power rod? Seems to be reasonable to adjust to high gear ratio when searching the area to find where fish are holding, and to low gear ratio when getting bites. What’s your thoughts of it?

    Congrats!! Dream to catch one like her.

    Does it mean the same as "it's pattern fishing if I do have a plan what to use & how to fish before going outside, and it's junk fishing when I fish in the way whatever I like"

    Practice more.

    I have heard people say their rods snapped in half when they were 2 piece. However, it would be extremely beneficial as far as portability to have 2 piece, especially when bank/kayak fishing. When buying fishing rods, will you choose one or two piece model? Or it makes no sense.

    No, it's not my first baitcasting reel, but this is the first time I buy it myself. I got my first baitcasting reel under Christmas tree last year. It didn't work well actually. So I plan to buy myself a new one and try out some topwater lures this year. Btw, I do lm bass fishing mostly.

    I do understand that I'll get what I paid. But I have budget on fishing tackle. When it comes to bait casting reels I will spend a max of $150.

    Turtle: I will never have date with bass anymore. It's painful. LOL

    I’m looking for a new baitcasting reel online, hoping that some of experienced fisherman would give more info on what to look for when buying a baitcaster. What’s your favorite baitcaster and what makes them the perfect beyond your reel arsenal.
  21. austinF
    Agree but it's more specific to say it "one of the most expensive habit".
  22. austinF
    So where do you shop the rest 100%?
  23. austinF
    I'm curious what everyone's general purchase preference when buying fishing tackle. For me, about 70% online. Not only for fishing tackle, i buy most things online.
  24. austinF
    Thanks for all the answers to this thread. I knew that i would likely get conflicting answers when asking these questions of a number of fishermen. Seems like things are getting more complicated. Lol
  25. austinF
    Hey guys, I wonder what are your 3 basic go to setups for lm bass fishing. I’m still a somewhat beginner at bass fishing and looking for more bass fishing tips and techniques. So it will be better to answer it in detail like what lures and line you use. Thanks in advance.
