hoping , for a better year than last ! trash talking is out of hand !
last year , with all the big fluke being caught i had the toughest year setting hooks and actually landing the fish. so my buddy who picked up a boat and got it in the water last spring keeps breaking my balls about , how i would get pissed off and say quote" damn he felt good but missed em "! so now im back to work after a year and half out , im gonna build my bucktail collection up and get back out there to redeem myself just to shut his ass up ! mind you i showed this clown how to fish , where to fish , put his boat on the fish ect..... the bass appeal redemption is coming 2015 .....i hope to have a banner year upcoming and be able to rub every bit of it in his face and my brothers face too.....wish me luck for paybacks
spring /summer cant come fast enough !!

Re: hoping , for a better year than last ! trash talking is out of hand !
Spro bucktails have pretty small hooks, 3/0 I believe, I would recommend buying jigs off somebody who makes them themselves. They're much cheaper, just as nice(some are even nicer) and they use proper hooks for keeper sized fluke. In my opinion for 20 inch + fluke you need at least a 5/0 hook and I personally don't use smaller then 6/0. I drop a lot of shorts when fluking with the bigger hooks but I rarely drop a nice one. I use 6 inch Grubs and Mullets on both my teaser and jig nothing smaller.

Good luck for 2015.
Bucktailboys.com have some good jigs, tested and proven in local waters. I think they will be in Hi-Mar flear market coming Saturday and I may pick up few more;-). Last edited by Capt.Yasar; 02-01-2015 at 07:48 PM..

Re: hoping , for a better year than last ! trash talking is out of hand !
i did notice the barbs on the spros are very small thus allowing the hook to slide back out instead of grabbin ....that i think contributed to my drops and misses .....i will def check out bucks with bigger hooks ! i refuse to go out a loser again this year and hearing the bs lol ....
