Revised version of the Mobile Fishing Livestream video in which I fished a pond using a Rapala X-Rap and a Kastking Zephyr BFS Reel enhanced with Hi-Spool Speed Bearings. The interaction with the audience was enjoyable and engaging.
Here are the key takeaways from this session:
Adjust the spool tension and magnetic brakes delicately due to the sensitivity of the custom bearings.
Keep the spool tension slightly higher than usual, as minimal force is required to spin the spool.
A twitchy retrieve technique proved effective for catching Bass near the bank!

Managed to Catch 15 Fish on this Trip! Check out the action!
Last weekend, I decided to go kayak fishing at Lake Lavon in Texas. I launched from the Lavonia Boat Ramp and began the day with a peaceful paddle on the calm lake surface.
Initially, the fish were elusive, playfully nibbling but not fully committing. However, as the sun rose higher, my luck improved. The first catch, a lively Yellow Bass, gave me a thrilling fight. This trend continued with more small Yellow and White Bass.
By mid-morning, I discovered the fish hiding deep near the lake bottom. Using Slab and Jig Rigs for trolling, and then Bottom Bouncing them, proved to be effective. Additionally, casting towards passing fish schools yielded a catch or two.
In the end, I had caught a total of 15 fish - 14 White Bass and 1 Crappie. However, I lost track of the number of undersized fish that were caught and released!

Audio version of the Mobile Fishing Livestream where I fished a pond using Ultralight Fishing Gear and a Rapala X-Rap and a Kastking Zephyr BFS Reel customized with Hi-Spool Speed Bearings.
Lots of fun and good engagement with the audience. Several questions from viewers and a few missed opportunities when the Bass threw my lure!
With a few essential tools and materials, you can craft inline spinners that perfectly suit your fishing style and target species. Start by selecting the right wire, beads, and blades. The choice of blade is crucial as it determines the spinner's action in the water. Willow blades provide a tight, fast vibration, while Colorado blades offer a slower, more pronounced thump.
Next, thread your components onto the wire shaft in the order that ensures maximum attraction to the fish. Begin with a clevis to hold the blade, followed by a series of brightly colored beads to catch the fish's eye. You can also add a small brass or tungsten weight to help the spinner sink to the desired depth quickly.
Once you have your spinner assembled, use a pair of pliers to form a secure loop at the end of the wire, ensuring that all components stay in place. Consider tying a feathered treble hook to the end for added movement and visual appeal.
Experiment with different color combinations, blade sizes, and weights to find what works best in your local waters. By customizing your inline spinners, you'll not only increase your chances of landing more fish but also add a personal touch to your fishing gear, making every catch even more rewarding. Happy fishing!
