    My favorite lipless rod is actually the 7’2 MH Glass Shimano Zodias. Caught my PB on a red Booyah One Knocker with it last week - 7.12 lbs

      Man I never even had a bite on a lipless. Seen so many people catch monsters with them. Guess I'm doing something wrong. Always end up with a jig tied on after a dozen or so casts. No confidence in it. Say it's a winter bsit but my local ponds are full of dead hydrilla and are hard to fish with anything not moving.

      @@matthewotis3594 Yeah I’ll usually have to reel it with my rod tip high to keep it above the grass but I spend a lot of time picking all the vegetation off the hooks. If you have the patience for it, you’ll eventually find them and you can put a lipless where a jig can’t get to

      @@matthewotis3594 for me, theyre pretty circumstantial. ive had wild days on a lipless but alot of the time fish dont really seem to enjoy the obnoxious rattling. There are a few silent lipless cranks on the market, i havent tried them though. if youre around a ton of grass, get a lighter/hollow bait like a bill lewis rattle trap or cotton cordell and burn it along the grass lines or over top of it like a chatterbait. if you cant hop it in cold water because of grass, a texas rigged small fluke might work in its place. just cast it out, let it hit bottom, hop it through the grass. i fish alot of ponds and even when the grass dies off, theres always a layer of gunk algae at the bottom that makes hopping a blade or lipless impossible.

    I saw ( for the first time ever ) a pool test of the original Rat L Trap. Ya, it’s great for covering water and fishing above grass. But, when I saw it yo yoed and ripped, I was amazed how great it performed! Unreal action and fall! I fish a Damiki Vault often but now, I’m most definitely buying some Rat L Traps for a more aggressive presentation 🎣

    In Texas, Lake Bastrop, I've been killing them on a discontinued Strike King football head jig - pumpkin seed but the rage crawl trailer is purple on one side, pumpkin on the other. I install with the purple up, after it's in the water a bit the rubber starts to look a little like bacon.
    Sometimes they quit hitting it and I switch to a midnight blue/sparkle with matching rage tail. I think my jig is a larger, I'm gonna take these suggestions and see how they work with the smaller bait. This lake isn't known for bass over 21", most are in the 14 -21 slot. I catch pretty consistent 16-19.5 but 19.5 is biggest I've caught here.

    I own the 845 and use it for most things cranking. It's a rod I most always have with me. If there's a benefit to the 855 I would buy it in a heart beat, just curious.
