Re: 10/01/07--First Bass over 3 lbs in weeks

Tb: Yes, I've fished(with Randall as a guide) LV twice. Still no lunkers for me there but I will go again as LV is a trophy-Bass lake. Scores of double-digit Bass have been caught(and released) there over the last few years. On my last trip, we came upon a Bass floater. It looked alive but it was de...

For SA fish like the Peacocks, I'd go with a Calcutta 300TE. I use one for my heavier swimbaits like the Hudds.

Re: MB f4-68x

10/01/07--First Bass over 3 lbs in weeks

Catching any Bass over 2/10 has eluded me for the last several weeks. Fished 4 different ponds, a 600 acre lake, and a couple of hours on the Ocmulgee River over those weeks and nothing over a 2/10. Went back to my former boss's walk-around pond this afternoon with Bluebird skies, clear water, temps...

It's all I've used on fluro(and any other type too) for the last 5 or 6 years. It's the best IMO.
