GTier525 Posted November 11, 2023 Report Share Posted November 11, 2023 What a difference a day makes. Absolute stud and them smallies hit different!! On a side note.

That’s why I like the queen color - stands out and if I use a natural color I put those site marker stickers on top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbass Posted November 11, 2023 Report Share Posted November 11, 2023 Football. When up north I had one of my best days for smallies late Nov right when it started to snow and I was throwing top water. Jim137a 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the markers still tough to see in a chop. I can see the advantage in the queen. Thanks man always learning that’s why I like the reports the best.
