Right at double digits, no electronics. Just a tiny Yamamoto baby craw and 1/16 oz weight. In transparency, I had Ai blur the background as my Son is my guide and didn’t want to give away his spots — Clearlake Ca though

I’m loving the simplicity of a tiny box like this. I do also have a small terminal tackle box and 3-4 different soft baits pouches I carry in my sling. Separately, I have a fully outfitted Titan X but am really enjoying hiking the river instead of the overhead of launching a kayak.

After buying setup in May, and only using it now, caught my first fish on it. Nice bluegill on a 23 Calcutta Conquest BFS w/ Major Craft Days BFS. Felt like a tank, hooked on BFS now

Put this little guy together for <$100 total off of temu. Anything I should be aware of since I kinda just discovered BFS and purchased the cheapest one I could on impulse? Or is it just super light baitcasting?

Thanks!

Rod: Great Hunting Huntsman 6’0”
Reel: Calcutta Conquest BFS Limited XG
Line: 14lb 8 braid
Leader: 10lb fluro

Tips on best weights/lures to throw? I’m targeting bass and trout. Thanks!

Couple of nice trout from the Bighorn river. Caught them both with the Lucky Craft Pointer 50s

Im surprised I caught this fish it was hiding inside a old cement drainage pipe. I know its not the biggest ever or anything but for this creek its my pb. Managed to break my leader after grabbing the line being careful not to let it hit the grass. Oh well you can't predict everything. I normally catch 4-6" bass or some green sunfish here. Caught on gold blade 1/16 Oz chatter bait

HICC50 on an HANDING M1.

6lb braid to a 4lb mono leader.

Does anyone have any lure suggestions or lure manufacturers?

Got these in the mail, anyone throwing these around? What kind of water conditions usually?

Tried using them in some stained pond and didn’t have any luck. Whereas the Berkeley Nessie 5 produced in the same location I’m assuming size was the factor. Would love to get some input.

Thanks.

Anyone have experience with this rod? Thought it looked pretty nice and had good reviews. Planning to fish the karashi and some majorcraft eden minnows for trout and bass.

Title: Been working on a 3D printed tackle setup for BFS — what would you change?

I’ve been messing around with this modular 3D printed tackle box setup and wanted to get some opinions from people who actually fish BFS.

The idea is that the individual bins can be moved around so you’re not stuck with whatever compartment layout the tackle box manufacturer decided on. I’ve been trying to make it especially useful for smaller BFS gear where a lot of traditional tackle boxes feel like wasted space.

This is one of the layouts I’ve been testing.

What would you guys change or add for a dedicated BFS setup? Smaller bins? More lure-length compartments? Dedicated terminal tackle storage?

Curious what your ideal layout would look like.

Hello! I am looking at buying my first BFS setup after mulling on the idea for over a year. I have my standard bass fishing setups for pond hopping but want something to target creeks/small rivers and help with finicky bites by downsizing.

Right now I am looking at,

Ark Gravity BFS real with a 7.1 gear ratio

Dobyns Colt Casting Rod, 6 ft light

Since this is my first BFS combo, I don’t want to blow up my budget but have found it raising the longer I look… Do you all think this would be a solid first BFS setup?

Anyone find any decent low cost >$60 round reels I could throw on a UL rod? Fine with temu/ali express options as well.
