It's always the last couple of feet that matter. No rod and no reel has ever caught a fish.Posted 2026-09-26 · checked 2026-09-27 · Unverified personal experience
@BassLureFish thanks, that’s why i asked, it’s a nuisance when the clip is a bit on the small size.👍Posted 2026-09-20 · checked 2026-09-27 · Unverified personal experience
Thanks Man. There clip is made by HTO. It’s actually a bit small for the large eyes on these Titan Shads. Need next size up really. You’ll see in the video I was struggling a bit to clip the eye on.Posted 2026-09-20 · checked 2026-09-27 · Unverified personal experience
First of all I’d like to say,the videos you put out there, are all to notch, brilliant, before you started this experiment with the 3 Different shades, I went with White, I fish the shorelines alone the Algarve Coastline, I’d say 90% of Bass I and other anglers catch here are on a White lure,a smaller % on the other shades, that being in all different clarity of water, high Water/ Low water, what is the lure clip you use in this video?, keep up the good work, Tight Lines.😎🎣Posted 2026-09-20 · checked 2026-09-27 · Unverified personal experience
