So, I was watching a fishing show on ESPN, and I saw a technique of fishing that broke all the rules for me.
It's called flipping. The guy said what he used at it's as follows.
At least a 7'6" "Flippin Stick"
7:1 ratio reel
65# + Power Pro
3/4-1 1/2 ounce weights
5O "Flippin Hook" (Offset hooks)
Split tail grubs/beavers
What he did was threw it into the thickest of "thickets", wait for a bite, and rip it out like there is no tomorrow. Literally trying to rip the hook right out of the fishes mouth. Reminded me of Tog fishing in a way, where you just want to get the fish out of cover.
Has anyone ever tried this? Sounds like fun and a headache all in one!
