Lookout Crankbait!!

Killer, I know from my brief experience pulling that you will need rods with a lot of backbone. Not only because of when you get a fish on, but also because of when you get snagged in grass or hung up on a stump. When something is caught or snagged or hung-up, you will have a time delay between when it actually happens and when you are able to react to it while still keeping the boat under control. I use B&M pro trollers in 10 and 12 ft, and NO, I am not compensated in any way by B&M.

Blue, your being too easy on your buddy. I'd see if he wanted to go double or nothing on whether or not you can spend more than a hundred on one swimbait.

Believe it or not, I actually held a custom swimbait that sold for $350 per copy. Gingerly, very gingerly.

Thanks Maj, I was thinking of useig my spider rigging poles, they are Wally Marshel tight line specials in 14ft and my BnM capps/coleman trolling rods also 14ft. Also have several old BPS Green Carp sticks from my old days of bass fishing that Im gonna try to use.

set your drag loose, that way when you get hung up, it'll pull your drag out instead of breaking your pole

Don't think you're gonna like those C&C rods for crankbaitin'. They are mighty whippy. I like them for spiderriggin though.

U only need 3 colors on the CORPs lakes. Awesome Pink, Black, and Ole Miss. If you can't catch them on those colors you don't need to be fishing.

What is Ole Miss color

**BigKyd** · 04-29-2010, 08:39 PM

It'd be mighty hard for me to put anything called Ole Miss in my boat.
