buy some seaguar and your problems will be solved.

any 1000-2500 sized reel paired with a 7' medium lite action rod will work well for what you're describing. I personally use a daiwa lexa reel on a 7' ml st croix 1 piece rod.

fleas were terrible

dead. fished up past the condos and I don't think we marked 20 fish all day. Best screen was near vine valley only fish was a laker on a 100' copper pulling a sutton 71. But it was by a Costa rican exchange student who was ecstatic to reel a fish in after the long "boat ride" ran copper, riggers, flatlines, divers. Something isn't right with daigua. Five years ago twenty to thirty fish days were expected, now, if you catch 8 legal fish, you're havin' a good day in my book.

noaa.gov, has predicted wave heights (which can be very very wrong sometimes) and also if look on there you can find the weather buoys which relay instant info as to what's going on out there

seems like the general consensus on here is most guys are using seaguar fluoro for their leaders, 30-50# for flasher/flies, 20-30 for spoons

bottom bouncers and spinners closer to the weeds?

Blade baits and lipless cranks as well as paddle tail plastics are my go to

Gotta love catching browns and other non-laker fish on a jig.

most guys run 1-2 per side but there are days when I bet they wish they could run more, wire divers definitely catch fish

14.75 brown won

bass killing!

I've made a habit of spraying my boat and trailer down with some watered down bleach, is it worth the effort? Probably not but it can't hurt.
