      @jordanscollected - You should look into BFS ^, I think it would have some great applications in the waters you fish…

        That will be some great winter reading and research. thanks for forwarding @Giles. My nephew fell in love with fishing this past summer and it's all he thinks about all day. I need to stay fresh and try new things or he will be taking me fishing before i know it. I appreciate the motivation.

          It is used in US for Bass.  Developed in Japan for really finicky fish in hard fished waters….

                  If it catches me a Perch, it's a nice Perch pattern.  If it doesn't, it's fucking crap….

                        That’s a really nice swimbait @Giles. Those little fingers coming off will make some nice agitation in the water too. Keep up posted on the casting practice.

                                Those pike are called “Hammer Handles” in the U.S. still better than getting skunked.

                                    I saw your other post in Xmas traditions. Is that a Stradic? I have 2 and they the best reel I’ve ever used. It makes me proud that a pro also uses them.

                                      Well spotted.  It is a Stradic 1000.  I have a Stradic 3000 for FW and another Stradic 3000 for SW.  Love them….
