  1. Hey Raul, I used to have a cat that could catch night crawlers. Maybe you could go that way.
  2. Boy a lot of things to consider here. I guess overall I would throw a 3 inch grub an a jig head as light as I could use that day.
  3. Do your own thing, who cares what other people think.
  4. Exactly ghoti, the rod has so much to do with it.
  5. With expierence you really can learn to cast very light lures. But there is a point where spinning gear will serve you a lot better and you will have more fun with the smaller fish.
  6. You go pretty light if you have a long rod and small line and the skill to do it.
  7. I don't understand it either. I can catch bass on black and blue soft plastics but not on the jig.
  8. Can't get away at that time, maybe next year.
  9. Well said Primus I agree. Sooner or later a fisherman will move on to more expensive equipment just beacuse he can.
  10. Sure have picked them up, fished for several years with a couple of them. I don't think mine was quite that heavy. No one that I know has ever broke one. My point is they are tough, a lot tougher than graphite for sure. Sensitive? Not exactly.
  11. I am just wondering. Has anyone here ever broke an ugly stick?
  12. Raul nailed it exactly. Two different creatures.
  13. The gal passing out the free Bud Light.
  14. One thing that has always worked for me in ponds after the spawn is a jitterbug at night. If there are any big fish in there you will get them.
  15. I think you need to find out where the fish move to after the spawn. Once you figure that out you will be able to determine what bait will work best.
  16. I think they have they are getting hard to find.
  17. The old ones came in a small box inside a cardboard sleeve and they were much better than the junk they produce today.
  18. They can be a great bait at times.
  19. I have never had that problem, if I am catching fish on a bait that my friends don't have they are raiding my tackle box looking for another, and vice versa. Of course if I only have one I will offer them a very good price.
  20. So what do you use Burley? ;D
  21. Expensive equipment is nice, but you just don't have to have it to catch fish and have fun. My buddy can buy anything he wants and he loves those Ugly Sticks and catches plenty of fish with them. He may be the best fisherman I have ever shared a boat with.
  22. Aw c'mon you guys everybody knows you have to have a Chronarch and a Loomis rod to catch fish like that. And you will do even better if your baits are over 20 bucks. ;D ;D
  23. The Fat Ika is an OK bait, but I don't think I would worry so much about it. If it is not working for you , give it up and move on to another bait. There are many just as good without the hook up issues.
  24. Fish what you are comfortable with. Stay with the things you like, keep your equipment in a small bag you can carry on your shoulder and have fun. I fished that way for many years and never had more fun.
  25. I picked up a couple of these and tried them yesterday when I was out. I did not have any problem at all casting them with a Revo SX on a Fenwick med heavy Tecna AV casting rod with 12 pound Yo Zuri. I tried the 1/4 and the 1/8 size and both worked very well. I think their weight is very understated.
