SGT Rico Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 Well, went out today late and was able to scrape a little guy on a 6" Bull Shad. This little dude hit it like a freight train! Quote

SGT Rico Posted March 17, 2013 Author Posted March 17, 2013 these greedy fish never cease to amaze me. cool catch. btw, what's your take on the bull shad? i've thought about biting on one. I tried throwing it on a 7' 11'' flipping stick but it did not cast well, so I purchased a i-rod gen ll, model swimbait Jr. and I have never looked back. I-rods are amazing rods for the money. As far as the reel goes, I use a Shimano Cardiff 300A spooled with 65 pound Powerpro and about a 7' leader. As far as leaders go, I like Big Game mono in 25lb test. These swimbait rods have so much back bone you can literally rip the bait out of its mouth. The Bull Shad is amazing swimbait, but if you don't want to drop that kinda cheese, look at the Spro BBZ-1 shad. The BBZ-1 is one of my go-to swimbaits Quote
