Nice! I just finished spooling and rigging my two BFS set-ups and my finesse jig set up. My plan is to hit it for a while tomorrow and try the new BFS gear out. Tied a Kooshball on the 701c/Curado and a Megabass Griffon BFS on the other BFS rig. I can’t wait!!! 😁

Bro I know this is a funny question so I had to comment from a different account, but Im in school still and i'm fishing against a girl in 2 weeks cause she thinks she can out fish me. I know i can catch more cause I got the Ark gravity cause u recommended it and i throw tiny bfs lures that get eaten by everything. Would it be better for the rizz to just flat out destroy her and catch 20 and she catches 2, or do help her out with a lil 3 inch keitech or a 3 inch senko and she catches like 12 and I still catch 20?
@clintonbruning2 күн бұрын
@ydd-cv2dk there’s one sure fire way to make sure she won’t want to fish with you again and that would be to just catch fish after fish while she struggles lol. So I’d advise you to help her out and give her some good easy baits to catch on and help her enjoy the trip as much as you do. You’ll probably get a good fishing partner that way!
