Any reccomendations (LARGEMOUTH BASS)
I’m thinking of buying a Diawa fuego 2000-3000 size. I’m throwing it mainly with Texas rigs, light jigs, and even a mini chatterbait. What size rod and reel would give me the best casting without weighing a million pounds

Fishing private property
How do you go on about asking people to fish their property, HOA pond or golf course pond ?I live in Southern California and our local waters are so pressured. Would love to know how you guys have done it in the past , if you’ve fished private property. TOO FAT TO TRESPASS

Unusual fish
I fish 4-5 days a week in my local oxbow ponds and have never had a tilapia mouth hit a lure. Fin caught one for the first time a week ago. This one straight ate a 1/8 chartreuse chatterbait. Anyone else get these when bass fishing?

About the extended use of froggin rods
Recently, I had my eye on the Legends Tournament at St. Croix. Looking at the information on the website, it was learned that the 7'4 Heavy Fast is a frog stick. I would like to ask you one thing, is the frog rod in your hand generally good for punching and flipping? Or is it suitable for the use of some jig?
Or if I'm looking for a rod to replace the Gloomis 854c JWR, do you have a better recommendation? I'm looking forward to your answer for me, thank you!

Rain after drought
So here in NJ we’ve had a drought for the past two months. We finally got some rain over the past two days today being heavier. Rivers and lakes were super low. I’m assuming fish will be more active tomorrow in response to this? Any specific areas I should target or baits I should throw? Water is getting colder and I’m assuming water will be dirtier because of the rain. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks guys!
