Kevin Skovenski lol me too! Guaranteed to stick myself half a dozen times just tieing a crankbait on.

Kevin Skovenski that works if it's only one barb.

I feel your pain. Dink bass yo-yo'd up the line and got me. Firm believer in fish gripper now when it comes to little bass and treble hooks

Christopher Bowman it definitely has saved me many a times getting the reel engaged as soon as the bait hits the water. Missed a lot of fish when I pitched right hand and had to switch hands to engage.

For me, my spinning reel has to be left handed and my baitcasters are right handed. It drives my buddies nuts that are strictly left or right. I think it was just the era I grew up in. I pitch and flip left handed but right hand for side, over head, and backhand casting.

Congrats!

Will Davis, thanks for having me out! You'll need to come back and hit Belton Lake next time so you can scratch smallmouth off your list 😉

Those are some massive beds for bream...

Can we add "accidently" to the survey?! At my local lake they are starting to show up in areas of the lake they don't normally haunt so it's been a pleasant suprise.
