Hey now bub, call your shots.

I didn't see anything to disagree with above, but no discussion of the baits to use.

If you want to start out on the cheap and build from there, here's the 4 colors of Bandit 300s I'd start with

1) Black or Black Sparkle

2) Mistake

3) Awesome Pink

4) Red - Texas Craw is a good one.

Those are the 4 basic hughes everthing else is just a variation of the above. Then you'll want to have some more colors....lots more colors.....and dont' forget about the 200s when they're up shallow....then you've got Wally Marshals when they want a snack, Norman DLNs for the big fish bite and don't forget about swimbaits if you find some mean fish..............well, you see where this leads right?

Here's a link I pilfered from Jeepster - prolly the cheapest non sale Price I've seen. Bandit Series 300 Crankbait

Only thing from above I'll add is that I prefer no snap above the bait and just use a quick figure 8 knot instead. I've had trouble with the baits not running true with additional hardward. Also 10# mono works best for me (may not on Ross Barnett) and I like the hi-vis lines. The higher and visier the better.

My best speed seems to be 1.7 or 1.8 mph.
