Best I can say for now is watch alot of “Ike”’s videos

July 14, 2021 07:28:48 PM

And download the power point slides with each video
If stumble on a word or process then google it or youtube it . Example say want to fish a worm
There is many ways to rig a worm anything dont understand google or youtube

Bassutv is way better than the internet but I get it most pros might not assume you know nothing

It sounds like im talking down to you but im afraid your coming across a little green to this

Wish you the best and your a fool if dont stick with it here on bassutv, its a tad advanced but that is what makes it good

There is menu options to select such as bass habitats or say bass lures. Or select a pros name etc

Id rather hold my breathe , that lady they have for customer service sucks. Their loss i was switching over to all Cashion till I got blown off from her. Wish I could reach owner.

Re rapala. And they are out everything or least most colors

I may be wrong but the way I interpreted his comment is the video focuses on the Pro. But often they are looking at the power point , the students in house can see, but us video students can not.

Topic: Wacky Rig Hook Ups

Gamakatsu is a awesome hook manufacturer. But
They have a hook labeled wacky/drop shot.
The hook is a mistake. Here is why , if you hold it level with your eyes you can see the point lines up with line tie, therefore leaving hardly any gap to hook the fish with plastic bait in the mix. I bring this up because of two reasons, you may be using a brand that looks the same. Or you use this hook because its labeled as the one to use. And its wrong. Now if compare it to say the Aaron Martens G Finesse hook which gamakatsu makes as well you will see the difference.
Also what hookset style you using? If swinging in em as if it a texas rig hookset there could be your problem. Now lot pros use a big strait shank hook.
that would help too , but me pereonally I dont like all the extra hook , visually it makes me lose confidence.

Yeah I liked low vis green. My HOA lake has green dye in it, this line was kickin bass
No longer found for me.

May 14, 2022 11:36:54 PM

Wish I had more of these reels.
Who has low down on these reels in say newer comparable model. But I don't want a cheaper grade. I'm a shimano and lews guy but now have a few Abu and Few Diawa. But I'm so new to Diawa except for the old Sol. Example
Basically ebay selling New Tatula Sv for $199 but it's a 2016 reel. I feel the CT type R might be better. And Used CT type R are off the hook and usually scratched. Anyone selling any CT

May 14, 2022 11:45:03 PM

Two reels I screwed up on not buying at least 2 was diawa ct type R. And Lews Lite
