Got some hellgie bodies from the shop don’t really like the amount of glue used but I think they’ll look ok in the end reject 1&2 # 3 with have a bigger material to make the segments the shorter one is what I’m going to run with
Lol I’ve only got one bag of filets left your going to have to wait.It the oil it’s gotta be hot vegetable oil will smoke at that temp and it doesn’t work as good no problem as long as you’re not allergic to peanuts
Really goes off what you like I’ll like faster action rod for most lure’s and jigs now the flyrod I like the faster action rods when swinging streamer but a slower action for dead drifting and bottom bouncing
Did u add cayenne I use Zartans (flour not corn meal) it has a little heat but only a little,peanut oil at 350 to start each batch about 3/4 minutes depending on if there your cally filet or mine lol egg wash to thicken the batter a bit
I would guess that a direct connection or a swivel at the lure would be best just because of the dead section of line between your leader connection and then again at your lure it might not always be tight
Probably the the amount of work it really takes to redo a rod Even to redo the eyes can set you back a hours no less the handles don’t come apart easily it would really have to be a special moment rod
What type of inline spinners you talking wire or mono/floro I use octopus hooks like you pictured on my walleye spinners using line and have tried them with wire but didn’t like the way they sat when I twisted the wire.
Gold is great color for trout gold pretty much works with all fresh water fish not real sure on salt silver might be better.Now size never had great luck with large spinners #2&3 for bass but most of the time 0/1 for anything else
