Questions for you.

[usngsm2]

A) Rattles
When do you use worm rattles? Sometimes I put them in creature baits but on average I never put them in worms. I haven't seen a distinct advantage in using them, how about you?

B)Texas rigs
When do you peg the weight and when do you decide not?
What are the overwhelming factors involved?
With tungsten around do you still use lead?

C) C-Rigs
For weight what do you use brass, lead or tungsten?
I have recently enjoyed the tungsten barrel style but, was suggested to go back to brass. I stuck with tungsten because it worked for me and two I got more feedback on what was on the bottom. What about you?
Is your c-rig rod application specific or multi purpose?
(How many of your rods are a/s and how many are m/p? Which are application specific and which are multi-purpose? )

D) What style of hard baits do you use most often? What colors/brands you find work for you and which did not? Describe the conditions you fished them.

E) In the forums, do you share what actually works for you are do you just get tips from others? After your tournaments does the winner ever tell what/where/how and do you believe them? Do you do the same?

F) Jigs
Do you prefer jigs over plastics for flipping or vise versa and why? What are the advantages of both? Which do you use more often?
What manufactor of jigs do you use most often and list colors and weight?
Underwhat conditions do you perfer either and what are the deciding factors?

G) Line
What line size you use the most and list the line sizes per applications?
Aside from braid and mono what other types of line do you use?
Ever C/B with braid, how was it?
With braid around do you ever actually use mono that is 25# and above?

Lastly,
what do you do with the reels in your closet that work but you don't fish with them because you've upgraded? Does anyone have the shimano Calyx? What sites have you joined that wasn't your forte'? Any discounts just for being a member of a particular site
