Thread: Want to focus on pan fishing this year

Works for me! 1/32 oz is better for deeper water and if I need more casting distance.

I’ve been using 1/32 for a long time and have a lot of confidence in it.

Works very well for me. It is just about the only lure I’ve used the past decade or so.

Wow! Looks like I can get away with fishing with 1/64 and 1/32 oz troutmagnets for majority of my fishing needs. Throw in some Bobby Garland Baby Shad plastic on 1/32 and 1/16 oz jighead should take of the rest!

Question for you guys. What would your advice to do with my 5'6" light action ugly stick? It's rated 1/16 oz to 3/8 oz with 4-8 lb test. Use it for casting road runner lures? Do shorter rods have their place? If so, under what circumstance? and how would you use them? Thanks for the feedback!


P.S. Also, I was thinking of spinning reel for the trout slayer UL rod I got. What do you guys think about the Okuma RTX 30S reel? Seems like a good value for the money.


P.S.S. Further inspection, also have me seeing people here like the Pflueger President reel as well. Perhaps the 25X or 30X?

Use it for bass or catfish.

Does anyone know what size hooks these 1/32 fin spin jigs are? The product description does not specify.

I’m pretty sure they are #4.....I would have to go out to garage to confirm. I field tested those with a #6 hook. Fish love them....but when I ran out of the prototypes I quit fishing them. I don’t really like any hook bigger than a #6.

Do ya'll use the crappie magnet 1/32 jig head? I was looking at the 1/32 CM jig head but was wondering about the little lip below the eye. Does the TM go over that lip or stop there? Or do you use something completely different?

Thanks as always.
