Justin maddox Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 Hello everyone I'm new to swimbait fishing and I was told that this was a good place that I can get help. If I'm not posting in the right place please let me know. I'm here in Florida and I want to get my new PB and I have seen the best way to do it is on big swimbaits. My current record is 7lbs not small but not the biggest either. I am also a soft plastic bait maker as well also do alot of saltwater fishing...... anyways back to the point I have 0 experience when it comes to swimbaits along with 0 confidence. So I was wondering what is the best way to start I would like to get a decent setup do I have been looking at a shimano tranx 300 but I'm not sure about the rod yet I was looking to throw 20lb fluorocarbon line unless I'm told otherwise on here. So what are y'alls suggestions on beginner baits that will get me bites and a decent rod to get as well. A bait that I do make is a 4inch paddletail swimbait along with a 6inch and the 6inch bait takes a 10/0 owner beast. The picture I have added is my 6inch bait.

kellen.3 Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 I’m new to this too but caught my pb in less than a month of swimbait fishing. Learned everything I know from tactical bassin. Watch this vid and then post that pb on here! PKNNH 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellen.3 Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 Also, go to the underground forum and scroll down a little and you’ll see a forum titled “beginners/noobs read me first.” Lots of good stuff there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
