This was my first Live Bait trip to Tim’s this year and over all I was very pleased. I caught and released 9 Smallmouth and lost 5 that I either didn’t have stuck good or they got me hung up in the rocks or stumps.   (just part of fishing live bait)  When fishing live bait I use 6lb test Sufix Mono www.sufix.com (unbelievably strong) a Super Sharp VMC Live Bait Hooks in either a #2 or #1 and a AllPro Apx 7’6″ M/L rod www.allprorods.com.   I’m going to get 1 more day in tomorrow before the deep freeze hits us Wednesday.  Rick McFerrin www.tennesseebassguides.com
