    I wouldn't use that rod for bladed jigs. It's going to be too light, especially if you fish grass.

    If you want to fish, go fish. I've fished during a mlf and bass practice before and didn't blink an eye.

    I'm not entirely sure. I just know I for sure have more surface noise when it's sunny vs cloudy or low light.

    Yes I run the long mask. I'm most likely going to add a touch more to it next time out. I still get a bit too much surface noise beyond 50' when theres any chop on the water or the sun is high.

    No. It's not like these shallow guys are catching the same weight as always while the offshore scopers are dropping above average weights for a lake. If that was the case yea I'd agree.

    Spot remover with the screw lock is hard to beat. Good head and hook that is readily available off the shelf. If you want a tungsten option I'm a big fan of the real deal tungsten heads
