The key for me has been periodic shake of thre rod tip and once or twice per cast sudden speed gets bit more than just a steady retrieve. Also i only got one fish so far letting it fall to bottom but i think it will get more bites if i do it.

One tip/idea I do to keep from loosing eyes, after loosing a few, is putting Mend-it over the top of the eyes. I build it up with 2-3 smaller coats so it has a good connection to the plastic around the eye. Hope this help someone.

@@carlosalvarado2160 exactly what I do too. Works perfectly. The problem with Mend-it, is that its MEK. It will melt most plastics, clear coats and paints. Risky to use. I just super glue the back and pop em on. If I really want outer protection over them, I'll use UV activated super glue. The stuff is GREAT for many things, fishing and non-fishing.

why do you cut out the magdraft magnet and treble hook assembly vs just using the magdraft freestyle, I get it's to make it more weedless but is that not what the freestyle lets you do?

What size baits soft or hard? For spinning or bait casting reels? Suggested rod length, line test? Hard baits and soft baits. Style of fishing.
