your armpits sweat alot

[badbass94]

hey would a 5.4 gear ratio be fast enough for grinding the swimbaits like this? thanks for the info guys and keep up the nice work

[thebassboyz]

@badbass94 I prefer a 6.2:1 or faster baitcasting reel for fast winding swimbaits. A 5.4:1 reel might work if you have super human winding powers!

[badbass94]

@thebassboyz thanks i know you said your using a 300 and 200 size curado, but for calico bass fishing in general what size do you prefer.

[FreshwaterAngling]

@thebassboyz A 5:4:1 will make it easier to crank, don't know what he is talking about. Teh lower the gear ratio the more torque you'll have.

[thebassboyz]

@FreshwaterAngling Torque is important once a hooked fish settles into the fight, That being said, often with Calico Bass, you need to move your bait extremely fast to elicit a response. With a 5.4:1 reel, you really cant do so. Also, Calico Bass often run towards the boat when hooked, and I have seen quite a few big fish lost because anglers couldnt keep up with a hooked fish. I honestly believe speed is essential, and most professional saltwater anglers will echo that opinion.

[FreshwaterAngling]

@thebassboyz 5:4:1 can be fast enough

@iiiiii11iiiii I threw back Southern California's greatest gamefish!

[FishingTheBass]

did you use a scent??

[fishingkayakphil]

I was fishing calico with a big hammer swim bait and it swallowed the bait so deep, I had to keep the fish. Does this ever happen to you guys?

[GhostFishSlayer]

Awesome day of fishing, guys! Do like treble or siwash hooks on the jigs and wax wings?

[lalala213]

I'm new to fishing, and I'm wondering what kind of rod you are using?

[mobwedo1]

[soccerboy208]

[Logancamm]

[bassmassterchamp3]

[BECKFEARNLEY]

i was thinking mabye a 8ft teramar please let me kno what you think...

[rafasplice222]

@BECKFEARNLEY best match for that would be a Shimano Crucial 7'11 H or Shimano Teramar 80MH, and load up your reel with 50 or 65 lb. Power Pro
