Basstrix swimbait

I haven’t used them for years but I believe the older ones I used had a nice tail action. I tried them with an owner swim bait 5/0 hook and 1/8 oz weight and with a jighead ins...

Re: Who regularly throws small 3/16-1/4 spinnerbaits?

I only use the old T1 terminator tandem with a small Colorado and a 4.25 gold willow. The terminator willows have that flattened end and there is something special about it for me. As mentioned earlier you do need a lighter baitcast setup rod and reel to throw it properly.

Ground down the ecsm reelseat as much as I could and used Fuji ti sics as 5, 4.5, and 3.5 runners. It was a hassle but my nfc delta 703...

Re: Aldebaran BFS line options

Is it just me or is the aldebaran bfs the hardest reel to put line on. Trying to get line around that spool and those holes just make it a bear for me.

Re: single hooks on cranks

I threw a sammy yesterday with a single Vmc 3/0 and it walks so good, less water resistance I'd imagine

Re: single hooks on cranks

Owner and Vmc have single crank hooks up to 3/0 with the vmc,s a much cheaper price. It's nice having a bigger hook on my baits and easier on the fish too so we're both happier.
