I'd probably fish weedless frogs if the weeds are heavy especially in the warmer months (May through October). Some of the more "oddball" designs such as prop frogs (e.g. Lunkerhunt Propfish Sunfish) and bladed frogs (e.g. Teckel QLinker) would be good picks as well to differentiate what other angl...

It depends on the rod to be honest. Some rods are too generous or conservative with the ratings. Disclosing the specific rod may help. If it's a high end rod, I'd stay within range. I have a 3/8 to 3oz rod that I can throw 6oz baits on. I also have some rods rated higher or within a range that I'd ...

Thanks. I’ll try that finish.

What did you think

Looking into a new rod i already have picked out but something i never really worried about on my current rod (7ft 1 piece medium action gx2 ugky stik) was exceeding the lure weight rating and was wondering if it could cause the rod to break (not going to exceeding it just some times through out the...

I haven't fished an Ugly Stick in many years, but I can't imagine Cashion being anything but an improved overall experience. I believe that ALX is another option, they even roll their own blanks. Keep in mind that even though the made in US rods are assembled here, blanks and components are typical...

Like an Ugly Stick but better. Shimano Teramar SE models, but made in China. The TC4 blank construction is tough and yet sensitive. These rods are just over $100. Not sure what the current inflated price is.

Any made in usa otherwise it doesnt seem worth spending the extra money

Theres some ponds with extreme heavy weeds and lily pads i fish for bass and pike and was wondering if anyone has any advice
Its the Canal Ponds in Greece (Rochester NY) for anyone wondering or if anyone local knows
THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THE BASS IN THIS POND DO NOT LIKE SENKOS
