What's special about that tube? It just looks like any other tube to me. The Net Bait BK tube seems to be similar but it has a solid tip. They were the softest, yet thickest walled tubes I've found. Softer than a Tender Tube. Great for heavy cover flipping, but also deep open water where they produ...

Yeah, i have been scouring the web for what is left out there. I have found some, not much in any black colors though, oh well.

I noticed that TWH no longer carried the RI boom boom tube, I emailed reaction innovations and they confirmed that they indeed are discontinuing them. This is a bummer for me as I have been a huge fan of that bait for weed lines and docks or anywhere where blue gill is a major forage. I'm trying to ...

I hated fishing buzzbaits until i finally tried the cavitrons, i will never try another brand ever. Everything about them is awesome, run straight, squeel exactly how you want them to, have a great hook on them that is long enough that you don't need a trailer and they cast great. Are you using the...

Many here will dismiss it because it's cheap, but the Mann's Hard Nose toad is as good as any when they're keyed in on the toad. I keep it simple by rigging it on a single 4/0 Gammy EWG hook (a 5/0 will fit nicely as well) No screw lock or anything of the sort necessary, the hard plastic head keeps...

I actually just ordered some of the Mann's hard nose toads because i had heard they were a sleeper toad bait.

I like the ribbit's action but i can't throw it very far, i imagine the bull ribbits would cast farther?

There are days when a buzz toad is the absolute deal, but man i HATE throwing them because of several reasons: 1) they roll over and catch grass 2) they roll over and catch grass 3) did i mention they roll over? I have used horny toads, trixie sharks, and ribbits. I like the weight of the horny toad...

Had this on the Daiwa support forum but wasn't getting any hits so i thought i would check here: I have always been a Shimano guy, but TWH has Lexa's on sale for $70 and I couldn't pass it up as I had heard they are good reels. I got the reel the other day, took it out of the box and gave the handle...

I have always been a Shimano guy, but TWH has Lexa's on sale for $70 and I coudn't pass it up as I had heard they are good reels. I got the reel the other day, took it out of the box and gave the handle a spin and it makes a clearly audible noise, almost a clinking noise when I give the handle a spi...

For the record, I was yanking 1.5 oz or greater for distance each time. I've not had issue with 1 oz or less and I'm sure 12 lb test may have contributed to my problem, but it was still a problem. I've never had this issue with a quality copolymer. Old school, I know, but it is what it is. that see...

Fluorocarbon rarely ties a good knot What kind of knots you tying? "rarely" suggests that occasionally it does, but most of the time it doesn't....not sure you mean most flouro brands don't tie a good knot or? I have a few complaints about flouro but knot strength isn't one of them. To me the upsid...

Anyone ever try one of these? Opinions?

Green owner wacky rig hooks are what i have settled on 1/0 usually.

I think rod has as much to do with it as the hook, i missed a lot of fish with many different hooks until i went to a good whippy ML spinning rod. I use a bigger hook with a casting rod.
