I am now in agreement with you after I educated myself a little more on this topic and issued my correction with my first post.  LOL!  Love your reply to Tim's question!

Got to make a couple corrections and a statement about my original post. I actually stated the wrong rod I used for the Flick Shake. It's a St Croix but it's a 7'1" Victory medium/heavy fast action rod. And I got a lews Custom XP baitcaster for the reel. (To early in the morning when I was typing the first post.) This rig works great for what I put it together for BUT.. . Now for something I just learned from watching an BFS break down with Mike Iaconelli that had a guest on that knows that technique real well to explain it for folks. I was wrong on what I thought BFS means I believe now. Sounds like a person that goes after the technique, mainly uses ultralight everything! Special BFS reels, ultralight rods, tiny baits and lighter type lines. I have no experience with what this video is telling me about what BFS fishing really is!! Lol 😅 so sorry on that Tim! Glad I learned something though!

I think I can speak alittle to this. It is a new technique/system to me and learned it this spring. I had a St Croix Triumph rod I acquired I didn't know what to do with. I believe it's a 6', medium/fast rod. I came across a video of Ben Miliken talking about a "Flick Shake" he called it. So I used this rod for this purpose. I believe the set up and technique he was talking about fits this BFS idea. I put 12lb test on a lews baitcaster I bought specifically for this and used it off and on this summer and a little this fall. I think the real magic is in the bait I used, I did follow Ben's advice and bought the hooks and plastics he suggested and it is super fun to use and did have success using it! I can see and have verified this being a great technique around wood! Here is a link to the video, I believe it's the 4th set up in the video where he talks about the deal. https://youtu.be/rXULSoPsoiU?si=1iAmsWLjimYUETpS

That's a cool looking fish!

Wow, what a fish!

A place called Devil's Lake in a state park in Sauk county here in Wis.  I think its one of the only places in the state that they stock these in.  Don't quote me on that, I may be wrong about it being the only place, but that's what I have been told by some people I have talked to.  Pretty cool fish.  Been doing some homework as to how to target them now that I know they are in there!
