The unequivocally most misunderstood tool in bass fishing is reel drag. People really just don’t get it. DONT BE THOSE PEOPLE! Your drag is line tension management system and a hook pressure management tool. The sound of drag shouldn’t scare you. The sound of reel drag shouldn’t be avoided. It doesn’t mean reach and tighten it up so you don’t hear it! It’s there to MANAGE THE TENSION OF YOUR LINE AND HOOK PRESSURE.

I’m just going to say it.. If you need in my honest opinion one of the best spinning rods I have ever used contact Brian Barde and just ask for the Toon’s slick stick custom!! This rod literally is a do all rod Texas rig drop shot to shakey head even to Ned rigs it is just the right action for a do it all spinning rod.. I can honestly say I’ve never been so impressed by build quality, action, as I have been with this rod… you all are missing out..

Regular season ended for me this last weekend finished 5/89, I would like to give thanks to Brian and the SUF community for teaching and helping me dial in my way of fishing this year. By far this year has been my best showing, but also my most comfortable on the water. Tournament of Champions in 2 weeks and looking forward to an amazing October.

Just wondering.. next tournament, or maybe next year, can we have a biggest SHOAL BASS category along with biggest Largemouth, Smallmouth, and Spotted bass categories... In middle Georgia we don't have the opportunity to fish for smallmouth... Just like guys north of us don't have the opportunity to fish for shoal bass... just wondering...
