thanks that is what i was thinking. went out fishing this morning and i caught 3 small bass on pumpkim colored craw's and missed a few more. sence fishing was slow i left a few minutes early and stop to get some extra line and a couple lures. i ended up spending $80 bought a $60 bass pro shop combo baitcaster the mcx 1000hb, a couple lazer eye xps lures, and rapala 12lb finesse line. so i should be set for awhile.
