    Just make sure you fish with a Lefty in the back of the boat with that sidearm cast or the guy up front is eating braid/3 ways/bobbers/leader/jigs/fish dope all day long or at least until he gets smacked the second time and then the fella in the back takes a swim

    Does the pack come with all you need or did you have to put it together yourself? I have a rod (BPS) but would like to know what all to get. I've been seing special bobbers, fish dope, jigs and 3 way swivels would there be something I'm forgeting? I want to go between Christmas and New Years. Does anyone know if the lodge is open and is that part of the lake a good place to fish?

    There is a FNf kit that you can purchase from Punisherlures.com or BPS if you like. What you need besides Rod and Reel is

    8lb Fireline - main line
    #4 3 way swivels
    6lb Flourocarbon leader
    Garlic Fish Dope
    Various 1/16oz jigs
    FNF Bob's Bobbers

    I usually use a 1/8 ounce jig helps slide through easier and keeps it stationary and if any wind present i let it drift with the wind to my advantage. mostly use duck feathers and craft hair but u have find the right combination.
