Alright there buddy, I plan on tryin a 10 in lizard if i can find one. One trick for lizards is to bite off the head because it looks more real with the bullet sinker on it that way. never tried painting the sinker though. Red shad I presume ? Yes sir..I'll let ya know how it works..I plan to bump a 6 inch red shad to have fun. and drag a 10 inch Christmas Tree Gambler..for the heck of it. I ran into a man who catches lots of BIG bass..I ask him how he does it..
He said,"I drift down the middle here with a 10 inch worm..I use a red bead in between the bulet sinker and the eye of the hook..I Carolina Rig it..I get about one hit per outing but they are always close to 10 pounds."[:-]


Maybe a red hook can throw in a extra bonus as well?I've got some..good idea.. Dont worry bout ms 10 lb, youll be fine, god willing, it will go over smooth. Thats how i look at fishing, if God wants me to catch a big fish he wouldnt have let that last one get off LOL
Good Luck to ya Chuck,
Brent
