Hey Richard.....can you please go over your line/leader set up for the different baits you throw when you are in grass & pads? I fish out of a yak the majority of the time also and only have room for 4 combos....being from up North originally I really struggle with what line/leader set up's to use when I get to a body of water that has thick vegetation since our only real cover up in our Northern lakes are wood and rock. Thanks & have a nice holiday season!!
Thanks for the comment! I will usually use straight braid when I’m flipping and pitching unless the water is very clean. When I fish anything finesse or any bait that the fish can get a good look at in example wacky rigged stick bait, jerkbait, glide bait i will usually have a flurocarbon leader tied on. I use a 10lb leader on the wacky rig and 12lb leader on jerkbaits etc. The biggest thing I think about when deciding on a leader is how they’re biting. If I’m fishing something fast and I know they’re reacting and don’t have alot of time to get a look at it I won’t use a leader. If it’s something they can follow or get a good look at I will add a leader. I hope this helps you out. Happy Holidays!
Can’t wait to see more action with the Craw!
