    Thanks for all the help guys. Hey Steve1206, do you think putting a bigger hook would work as the suspending strips?

    Megabass Vision

    What has your experience with the Megabass hooks been? I'm curious about the barb pointing out.

    Hey how bad was the fish kill there this summer? The reason I ask is because a friend said that he heard fro someone reputable and they said the kill was bad. He said it wipes out a good portion of...

    Original Wiggle Wart hook size?

    I purchased an old, original Wiggle wart that had all the original hardware on it. I replaced all the o-rings and the original hooks were size 6. But I would prefer short-shank #4 Gammies. Has anyone...

    Re: (buckjunkie)

    Sometimes it is a bad spool. Whether it is bad from the factory or if it sits for a long time at the bait store. I bought a spool at a rinky dink bait shop once and it was bad. I assume that it had...

    Re: Weather (IllinoisBasser)

    I would like to but it would be hard for me. I fish tourneys at LOZ and Mark Twain. So whenever I can get away, that is where I end up. I just go to Baldwin during the winter time. But if I have a...

    I went to Baldwin. I expected it to get bad all day, but it didn't materialize. If you dress warm, have good boots, have a good rainsuit and extra gloves, the wind and cold can be very manageable....

    Re: New to the tournament scene (luigisbass)

    My advice doesn't mean much, but I suggest you join a club. Fish the first few tourneys you can. If you win or come close to winning, then you can go to the next level. The clubs have some good...
