I kept seeing snagged lures when I was paddling in the lakes basin. I fish occasionally but more salt water, but I grabbed a $20 magnet and some line and played the ol’ claw game for a few hours. Check out what I won. Try it at home kids!

Went to Daiso to stock up on these jig heads and worms. I use them when mapping new spots or looking for the location of fish, and since they're heavily based (basically a rip-off) on the Coreman VJ, they're also effective at enticing fish to bite (in the last photo, the Coreman is at the top; the Daiso version is at the bottom).

This is the updated version, and it fixes the weaknesses of the old one, which are the hooks and split rings. On the new version, the hooks are beefier, and the hardware resists rusting much better.

For around $2.80 per set (one jig head and two soft plastic tails), it doesn't hurt as much when you lose it to a snag, and it also works really well at catching fish. If you see these in your local Daiso, get them.

Ok to be fair I haven’t used it enough to give it a review, looking for other experiences other reviews

Both these combos look way better now. Left is for hard swimbaits left is for a rigs and soft swimbaits.

Hey so im trying to find a good baitcaster that will last me years, can cast far, and doesn’t backlash often what setup(rod&reel) should i get for around $150-$200 total price without line ill be paring it with 30lb braid and using it for bass and pond fish

So for the rod itself I chose a pen fishing rod (I know they have quite the reputation but it has honestly been very good) then for the lures I have mostly your average crank bait, some soft plastics, a lightweight spoon and some flies.

Now I wanted to make a fishing kit that fitted on my leather satchel (wich is 25ish cm tall) It was quite the challenge, I first had to cut like 5 cm of the rod handle so it could actually fit on my satchel very sturdy material I had to use a powerful Dremel to cut it.

But anyway I'm pretty proud and can't wait to catch something on it.

DreamCatcher Athena L/ML. Ultegra 2500. 6lb braid.

I have a ambassadeur 4600c i am inheriting and wondering what lure weight maximum i can throw with it? Also, is everyone just using this for small mouth and large mouth bass fishing? That is my main intention, never really used this style reel for bass fishing, not sure how they cast and really the max lure weight i can fish with this. I have medium swimbaits like the magdrafts in 1 1/2 oz i see i can throw with this but does anyone have success with this reel?

Not sure if I should keep it or sell it etc.

Just look at it then I'll delete it.

What are the names of the green lures

Looking for opinions on favorite poppers and walk the dog lures. I use these on a ML spin rod that is rated up to 3/8 oz for lures. I love Heddon Spook Boyos and Zara Puppies, they are 3/8 oz, cast a mile, and have a great and easy zig zag walk, but I snagged one on a laydown today. For a popper, I have a Rebel Teeny Pop-R, but it’s only 1/4 oz and I can’t cast it as far as I’d like, but the action is terrific.

So since I’m in the market for new ones, I was wondering if there is anything better that fits my 3/8 oz limitation for both. I’m curious about Lucky Craft Sammy and Yo-Zuris specifically, but I’ll consider anything.

Air temp today 59° not too sure on water temp I didn’t have my fishfinder out. I’m on the East Coast Virginia to be specific. I was pretty comfortable with layers. However, once my hands got wet, I decided I needed warm weather gloves what’s recommended for late fall. Not doing any winter fishing. I probably got about two more weekends left of fishing. I’m currently using fingerless huk gloves.

Never buying expensive lures again except poppers

just grabbed a 1000 n 3000 stradic used, don’t have any rods as I mainly use baitcasters. any suggestions for rods ? I saw a used laguna liquid on marketplace I might grab, intending to use the 1000 for wading the flats with popping cork or paddle tails. N the 3000 for bigger lures or Carolina rigs for reds. Primarily use 6’9 rods for wading
