    I never fished with jigs at all til I started watching your videos, John! But when I did, it changed my whole way of fishing! Today I was kayak fishing a new place in the Poconos with a 1/64 ounce jig & a Bobby Garland on 4 lb. mono and got several Bluegills around 9 inches, Crappie Bass near 13 inches, several Largemouth Bass about 12 inches, and the craziest was an 18 inch Pickeral!! All thanks to you and the grace of God!

    I have a pretty good hunch about which creek you're in and I've been really curious about it for a while. I work at one of the businesses nearby the creek I'm thinking of and have really debated on heading down in there. If my hunch is right, I think that may be a good idea. Great video man! Love your creek fishing videos, they got me excited about going to greenways and small creeks haha.

    Great video. I got myself one of those Resolute rods recently for a bday present. Had a 6’ lite with 4lb floro on it. On maybe the 5-6 outing I got snagged on a lily pad and gave it a quick pop to try and free it and the rod just snapped. I’ve done the same thing with the same line dozens of time before and since with my Lews laser light with no issue. Have to get my act together to see if the warranty will cover it if I decide it’s worth the $30-$40 in shipping to replace a $60 rod
