thanks guys

Ya, great lake. Hey man, My brother (cd7) and I have been doing some night fishing out at that lake lately out of our float tubes. It's been pretty good lately. If you ever want to get together and fish it let one of us know. And nice fish by the way! pm'ed

It was a rainy day in early March 2012, I was the only one out fishing on the lake, bout 15 mins into it, my 3rd cast landed me my PB swimbait fish, didnt get a chance to weight her, feels close to a DD to me but i'll let you guys determine the weight lol, btw was caught on a 6" hudd hoping to catch and weight a real DD soon, I CAN FEEL IT COMING!!! lol -Big game

congrats! good luck with the new bait!

Lost one about 8# on a 8" tylure kicker trout friday night, she hit the first time and missed it, I slowly reel the bait and twitched it 2 times and she came back and blew it up from underneath, hooked her solid, she did a few backflip while I try to keep no slack in the line, fought her all the way to the shore and saw how big she was and when im about to reach in to grab her the unthinkable happened, she open up her mouth and shook hard 2 times and the kicker trout flew right out, dammit!!!

lol, yeah "that lake" is pumping out very good fish lately, im glad your nailing them with your work. I really like how you painted up that punker, I have a few baits I would like to have you paint if you don't mind, and if you have time.

That punker you painted up is killer!! knew sooner or later you would stick some fish on it, good job Dan!

Okay thanks guys I will just have to try with my 7'6" heavy rod first and see how it feels like. thanks so much for all the help, I really appreciate it.

I've got two of the 7'11" MH rods and they toss 6" Hudds, Slammers and 8" Triple Trouts with no problem. do they have the 7'11" without that pistol grip handle?

which okuma? To cover what you listed, I would do 7'6" H. Had one and it threw all those baits you listed. I have that rod but herd from a few people that its to stiff for the lures I listed??

which okuma?

try to go 1once a week but sometimes 2, usually will go on weekdays because I dont like to fish when theres alot of boat pressure or too many people around, I like it when its dead calm and quiet, only thing thats making noise are natural wind and waves made by mother nature

Im looking for a budget rod around the 100 dollar mark to fish comfortably with 9" Ms slammers, matts 5"gills, 6"hudds and wake jrs. any recommendations, lenghts, actions ect?

just wondering what rod are u using with the slammer?
