Best Minnow Rod Ever! Lake Champlain

[@melb.bassin]

Fun one! So many... so spunky! Thanks for the VCBC shout out.🤙

[@mysterym11]

Just want to remind you. The electronics are nice at times but use your instincts. That’s how you got here. Much love.

[@MattyWongFishing]

@@mysterym11 I agree, it can consume you and you end up missing out.. here’s a good example. Didn’t know about the shallow largemouth bite until it was too late. Much love for the comment, gunna try to hone in on those instincts next season!

What’s the action of your spinning rod

[@MattyWongFishing]

@@BrittFn it’s a medium but with a slow stinger tip… so when the bass grabs the bait it slowly loaded with little to no effort, you detect the bite and hit them hard. Hooked solid every time and doesn’t bend out light wire hooks

[@819phoenix]

What connecting knot do you use for your braid to fluro

[@MattyWongFishing]

@@819phoenix I was using the FG knot! 16lb almight braid to 10lb fc leader!

[@819phoenix]

@ fg is the best.

[@BrittFn]

@@MattyWongFishingis that wipsnake a medium light?

[@MattyWongFishing]

@BrittFn it’s more like a medium but on the lighter side

[@inaslump]

What's that Pink line? Sinking braid?

[@MattyWongFishing]

@@inaslump the pink line is sinking braid from sunline called the almight!

[@inaslump]

@MattyWongFishing yea that's what I thought..good stuff man...

[@MattyWongFishing]

@ thanks!!!

[@BrittFn]

@@MattyWongFishingyou ever have any problems with abrasion and tying leader knots with that almight?

[@MattyWongFishing]

@ I found that I like the 16lb the best.. the 13lb I would have some issues but when I bumped to 16, no issues. I ty a fg knot and she’s solid.
