so I'm a big fan of 2 and 3/4 to 4 inch tubes. When I saw that mismo made a 7 inch version, I decided to try it. I wanted to know if any of you guys/gals fished with these and mostly what the heck did you use as a hook. These things are huge and for $6.30 for a 2-pack, I'd hate to leave them just sitting in storage. Thanks in advance

I've retried two shad raps where the wood started to split on the bank treble after several fish. normally I bank fish so I usually loose them before that happens lol. literally my favorite crankbait of all time though

looking for more info on casting spoons. what time of year works best? what colors go with the water clarity? I'm interested in the 1/8 ounce through 3/4 ounce spoons, any favorites? What rod action is best? Every year I try to get experience in something new and just thought why not spoons? I have a johnson sprite spoon, a krocodile spoon and a little kastmaster spoon but rarely throw them and I've never caught a fish on one. I know they work cause they been around forever it seems.
