Thanks Tooty. This was from one of the local "fished out" pay lakes. It costs a buck to fish, and if the owner isn't home, a mason jar is on the porch for your money. It is a clear lake, and like it is in a lot of them, the fish are spooky. 4lb test clear mono, fine wire bronze hooks, a split shot 12-18" above the hook, coupled with long casts, and fishing on the bottom is the way to go here.

Vince,
I am sorry your having health issues, I am glad you are still able to bank fish. I hope you get better so you can get in a tube again. My wife says I am to obsessive about fishing, so I am going to go only once a week, instead of 2-3 times a week.
So are you using the rings, or did you tape up the reel??? I am also very impressed with my esp rod. God bless!!

David,
I have a float tube and use to fish out of it a lot. Right now I am having some health issues, and cannot use it. I once lived in northern Missouri where the majority of the farms had ponds, and had a ball catching gills from my tube. That ESP rod really is the most sensitive rod I have ever used. I love it!

Great to see the esp rod is working for you. That added sensitivity is a plus. Have you ever fished out of a float tube. I know I have a lot of fun fishing out of mine. They are not to expensive. I am glad you are happy with the rod.
