One rod challenge. 7” taxi shad glide. If you don’t have confidence in something, keep it in your hand. If you want to purely get better at something, just keep it in your hand. If it’s a black and blue jig just keep it in your hand. The difference with the “big baits” is just the buy in is more expensive. Same mindset. All baits are just tools. It can be more fun to use an air ratchet instead of a box end wrench.
This is a solid 3 Younder but before this I had what I propose to be a 6-7 pounder come and grab this thing and just missed the hooks. Funny how they can do that.
Tight lines! Get out there!
