  1. I fished Maui in 2017. I found most of the shoreline very rocky so any time you touched bottom that was the end of the lure you were throwing. The best lure for me was  a 1/2 oz to 1 oz Kastmaster.  Also a curly tailed grub on a jig head worked well. The locals call fishing from the bank with rods smaller than surf rods “whipping”.  I took a 3 piece 7’ med/heavy travel rod with 20lb braid on a 3,000 size reel. If I went back I would take the same set up. You should be able to catch something at the nearest beach access to where you are staying. Good lick

  2. I just moved outside of Lexington back in July and have yet to throw a big bait in Kentucky! Currently I am boat-less but hope to change that in the coming year. I think I will pick up a kayak to get me on the water here soon. From talking to other anglers in the area it's sounds like there are a few guys that like to throw swimbaits in the central Kentucky area.

  3. I have had a lot of luck getting Hudds out of riprap from the bank. I wouldn't be worried about losing baits it will happen but not near as much as u would think. Throwing them on mono is the key to getting your bait back. The stretch in the mono provides a spring action when you load your rod once snagged and then quickly release the tension forcing the bait away from you and out of the snag. You could try a lure retriever from the bank but from my exsperience it doesn't work well. If you can afford a Tranx you can afford to lose some Hudds. Remember to post pics of those Lakers!

  4. I believe I have responded to all pms. I have acquired the hudd that I was looking for today. I still have the 8" wood punker for trade and may trade a white slammer eel that I have. I would say that the punker is a 8 out of ten and the slammer a 7. No real marks from use just from riding in the box. Still very interested in a 6" wood punker in trout or a poppa walka in trout. I have never owned a Triple trout so that would be of interest to me also. Thanks for looking.

  5. I am looking to trade my 8" wood lunker punker in bluegill color for a 6" wood lunker punker in rainbow trout color. Also looking to pick up a Rago Poppa Walka in rainbow trout color and a ROF 12 hudd in a rainbow trout color. I may have other baits for trade let me know what you have and what you might be looking for. I can text pics. Thanks
