Today's Trip

[Floatin_n_Maine]

Put a few more hours on the tube today. I caught 10 LMB and lost 3. One of the bass I lost was a big one too. He jumped like 3 feet out of the water and threw the hook. I'll get him next time around.

Nice report and nice batch of Bass. It looks like you were using the Tiki worms with the Molopo.

I love those worms.

Nice job on the release of those Bass too. Dead Bass won't grow whereas deat Trout taste good.[cool]

[cool][#0000ff]Good trip. If you keep practicing, you might get good at this.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Wouldn't be a good fish story without the biggun that got away. But, it is always good to know that there are big ones waiting to be caught. Might as well be you that catches them.[/#0000ff]

Very NICE bass you caught there!!! That big one that got away is what keeps a lot of us obsessed with fishing. Keep after him and you'll land him one of these days.

Yes, I love the Tiki worms. They last so much longer on the hook than Yamamoto senkos. I used a total of 2 worms all day to catch 10 bass, thats pretty durable, where as a Yamamoto worm might survive 2 hook ups if your lucky. I almost always rig them wacky style with the rubber bands in the middle.

I prefer the Wacky style too. I found a few tackle shops in my area that sell the Wacky kits. They come with a dozen O rings for the smaller diameter worms and 1 dozen for the larger diameter worms.

There is also an applicator tool that allow you to store them all and affords easy insertion of the Oring when you decide to change them out.

In the same secttion of Wallys World, you can find some of the Strike 3x worms too. Those things can last for many trips. I've had over 100 Bass on 1 worm before I got tired of looking at it and put a new one on just because.[cool]
