    I’ve loved fishing ultralight for over 40 years. I’ve always caught more on this rug than others. Plus as an ad said years ago, more fish come in smaller sizes than larger size. And a small fish caught on ultralight feels like a large fish.

    Spandex lol. I devised a great method to prevent wind knots with the ultralight line. The answer is an oversize reel with braid backing on a triple surgeons knot to the mono line. Also when the line slaps the rod it reduces the distance a lil bit but it helps with line management where feathering is not necessary. Sound counter productive but for us who hate wind knots its a great hack. Happy fishing yall

    I've fished almost exclusively ultralight the past few years and it's been a blast. I think it was one of your videos that turned me on to the Mimic Minnow lure, that's one of my go-to's now, it catches so many fish!

    I use baitcasters for top water baits and large jig fishing but I normally use light rods for the rest of the stuff. Swim baits Ned rigs drop shots. I use an okuma 7ft light. If there is not much brush to hang up on I use it extensively. I’ve brought in just under 7 pounders using this set up with 10 pound straight braid from suffix

      If you're on rocks in shallow water be careful. Throw crappie jig as soon as it hits water retrieve lure 4 seconds pause 1 second to let jig fall a little pop rod tip then retrieve again 4 seconds. When pausing 1 second to let jig fall then pop let it fall 1 second then retrieve a fish maybe on after popping rod tip. This is a simple but effective technique I've caught tons of smallies 3 to 4lbs. Pause only 1 second after retrieve then pop rod because shallow water it would get snagged or you breaking rod. If lure gets snagged create a lot of slack in line. This will relieve tension on rig. Pop rod tip on slack line. Flip bait pull out 4 arms length of line from the reel.

      @@carlitosverduzco3643 All reels are a bit different by manufacturer, and spool size and how far the spool sits away from the rod vary as well. I find this Okuma reel fits me nicely, and although it wraps a lot of line, I find the bigger spool helps me avoid wind knots more. Really no downside to it. Use what you find works, and experiment a bit and you might learn something new!
