    Wheels, you have an understanding of bass and their habits, instincts, and environments than any fisherman before you. I put you in the class with the likes of Doug Hannon, Al Lindner, Bill Dance, and Rick Clunn. You don’t just know modern electronics, you KNOW the prey of which you use them to hunt. THIS is what makes a REAL fisherman.

    I think smaller worms are also leech imitators. Like you said at the beginning, some places have American freshwater eels, and bigger worms can imitate those in places where they can be found as well as lampreys.

    Great vid J. Wheels! Thanks for all the info, I gotta work on my big worm game this summer. I was wondering, do you not use a big worm on a Carolina rig at all? What do you prefer on a carolina rig as opposed to a ribbontail? I've had good luck on them in the past, that's about the only way I've gotten bit on a big worm besides just chucking and winding it like a cut tail style worm. You're the man, keep it up!

    I've caught some big bass throwing a weightless worm into a wood pile and just let it sink and that works just swim it out and stop and let it fall again and hold on to your rod you just never know what is watching your bait. I think its pretty cool to think i was born in Eastern Tennessee but have lived in Southern Indiana for years kinda the opposite of you. 👍

    Yall some lucky people with off-shore grass in your lakes. Here in NC we get some yuppy in their mcmansion sees one blade of grass in "their lake" and the whole dang lake winds up getting sprayed killing everything. Very few places on our lakes actually have grass. We have to graph and find those hard structure changes. Chunk rock to pea gravel, stumps, large rocks, brush piles, even a 6" depression will hold fish.

    wheeler, when would you use a medium heavy with braided line direct to hook? I've got a 7ft medium heavy fast with a lews speed spool 7.1.1 with 30lb braid and wanted to know when this would be a good use setup and i won't mind to throwing a leader on the braid with fluoro or mono if need be but I'm also a shorter guy at 5'3" and am use to using braid for everything. I wanted to get into using fluoro or mono leaders on the braid for everything even with cranks but wanted your opinion if that's OK with you.
