Having trouble with my Chatterbait wanting to rise to the top of the water when I’m thinking my gear ratio is too fast currently using a 7:5:1

If you're interested in doing the live with me next Monday leave me a comment on this post to reserve a spot on the hot seat!

Is everyone Team pancakes 🥞 or Team waffles 🧇? I gotta know!

Hey B. Lat what is the best baitcaster and spinning reel you own or have had the chance to fish with?

Here are some pics from my adventures this weekend. Only caught 3, but got 2 bullheads and a largemouth. Caught these guys on my Bait Finesse workhorse rod with my go-to/confidence lure... 1/16th Gamakatsu "weedless" wacky jig, and a trickworm. Normally I use a trickworm by Dave's Tournament Tackle which have a slower fall from any trickworm I've used. This time I used a Gambler Sweebo wacky worm, but I tend to use a lot of Dave's Tournamet Tackle trickworms. I don't compete so I'm not sponsored, but Dave lives in my area and makes all his tackle. Has a nice shop to boot and sells other stuff too. Figured I'd change up the worm shape for a couple weekends, as I think they were getting pressured on the Dave worm's lol.

Curious, but are there any BFS (Bait Finesse System) reel users out there? I'm not a spinning reel kind of guy, and found BFS is a really nice alternative for finesse fishing. I aim for largemouth most of the time. I have 2 BFS setups in my boat... one always has a wacky rig, and the other is either a shaky head, dropshot, or a silly thing I've been messing with called a rocker head by Headbanger lures. Both setups are my workhorses. I run them on medium/fast casting rods. My 3 other rods are medium heavy/fasts for texas rigs, top waters, and spinnerbaits. For my BFS rigs, I usually go between 1/16 - 1/4oz jigs and lures... anything over that, I'll use my medium heavies. My BFS setups catch me more fish than my heavy setups. Out of my heavier setups, the texas rig and spinner are the workhorses. Just curious though if anyone in the community messes around with BFS reels. 

When will the new tungsten EVO Chatterbait be on the market? I’m about to go clean the shelves!😂

Hey Brian I’m headed down to the lowcountry this fall and really wanna catch some fish on artificial bait any tips, or bait you recommend? I’ll be at an old rice plantation called Nemours. It’s brackish water and we are targeting Redfish, Trout, and flouder.

Though I'd post up a pic of my little boat. Not sure how many canoe anglers are here, but here's my heavily rigged Scanoe. Started as a temporary measure, but has become our trusty ol' boat. Takes me and my youngest on many adventures every weekend.
