  1. So, I've been getting into fishing big swimbaits for the biggest bass in the lake, and I've been somewhat successful so far. I've caught A handful of nice fish from 5-7lbs on various glide baits so far. I have 8 inch hudds, I have a 9 inch slammer, I have lunker punkers, bull shads, a triple trout, Deps 250, Gantarel (none of which I've caught a fish on yet) and some of the other more popular big swimbaits on the market, and I'm looking to add the next glide bait to the lineup. My favorite big swimbaits so far are glide baits and multi jointed hard baits, so if anyone has any suggestions in those two categories, feel free to share, but for those of you who have tried them, which would be the better buy between the Roman Made Negotiator, and the Megabass I-Slide 262? I've been eyeing both for awhile, but I want to hear from guys who have actually fished these lures before pulling the trigger on another $100+ glide. Is the negotiator worth the extra money over the I-slide? Also, if anyone has tried the ABT suicide glide, how does it compare to the Megabass?
  2. Hey guys I'm new to the forum and I figured a good way to start off would be by creating a new Topic. Im not sure if this topic has already been created because I'm still getting used to the site but here it is: Medium to Large Swimbaits in Georgia. Has anyone had any luck with them? If so where and what kind? Im just now getting into bigger swim bait fishing so any tips or help are more than welcome. I recently purchased an 801MHFB swimbait rod that is rated 1-6oz and paired it with a Shimano Cardiff 301A. In addition, I purchased a Jackall Gantarel (RT Bluegill color), a Huddleston Top Hook Bluegill (Bluegill Color), and a Huddleston 6" trout (Baby Bass color). Like I said I've just gotten into the swimbait game so all help, tips, and advice are welcome.
  3. Does anyone have any tips on catching pond bass on swimbaits during trout plants? The pond I fish has been planting trout for the past few months and I am trying to target bigger bass in the pond. The pond is averages about 5 to 6 feet deep, with the deepset part at 12 feet deep. There is habitat placed in the middle of the pond, although it is hard to fish because it is not within casting distance. The pond is 12 acres big and the water is clear to stained. Trout are planted every two weeks. The trout are around 6 to 12 inches long and roughly 1500 trout are planted. I have been using an 8 in weedless hudd in a ROF 12 but have not had any success yet. I was wondering maybe if I should down size to like a 6inch or a 68 special. also I was wondering what time would be best to fish for the larger fish, like during, or after trout plants. and also what time of day to fish. The pond does get fishing pressured but only during trout plants, and not many people fish for bass. Any information would help. Thanks.
  4. Hi, this may sound like a dumb question, but when throwing swimbaits on braid with a mono leader do you need to adjust the way you cast? I was recently fishing with an S-waver 168 on 50lb braid with a 15lb fluorocarbon leader and I made a cast and my leader snapped and my S-waver went flying across the lake . I used a double uni knot to connect my leader to the braid and my line was not nicked or anything. Did I just use the wrong knot? Any info on what I did wrong would be very helpful. Thanks
  5. I was wondering what lb test line would be the best for swimbaits 1-4 ounces?
