    Maxima Ultragreen mono was THE ONLY LEADER LINE used in the 1980's and early 1990's along Michigan's Great Lakes tributaries for salmon and steelhead. Sure, guys would use Trilene or Stren mono on their spinning reels, but the leader was ALWAYS Maxima. I still have my dad's Maxima leader spools from back in the day.

    Been fishing my whole life BFS in my opinion is the coolest thing to happen to fishing in a long time.

    It is funny how I will spend an entire day, trying to take in a 30-minute video. But I do, and you guys are the absolute best. Appreciate this and every bucket of golden content!

    Thanks for the BFS videos. I got into bfs by accident. I got a Zypher for skipping jigs and found out I can skip a really light jig, and use really light line, which has proven invaluable this year because of the ultra clear water at LOZ.

    Just got to where you cover the Expride B 7'2" ML Rod. I can also confirm 100% of everything you said. I absolutely LOVE that rod and stumbled onto it testing different rods for BFS. I primarily use it now as my small 3/8 oz. crankbaits. That 7'2" ML rod paired with a Curado BFS Reel and a Strike King 3XD or a Rock Crawler or a 6th Sense Curve 55 is THE DEAL!!! SUCH A GREAT ROD!!!

    I’ve been using different sizes of the Daiwa Hidden Fluoro over the past few months, and it is THE TRUTH! 🔥

  • @HBeretta

    hell of a video man! all of it! i run a lot of 10-12# sniper leaning more on finesse presentations so this vid hit home for sure and peaked my interest...especially the BFS flipping.

  • @baitchuckin
    @baitchuckin

    Such a great video breaking down BFS as a technique, where it comes from, and the differences in the US adaptation for those that don't understand! I'm going to start sending my friends over to watch this video! I try and explain it to them but they don't "get it" This is very easy for them to understand! Awesome video! Thanks as always for what you and Tim both do for the Bass Fishing Community! It almost makes me thing, BFS would be a great topic for one of your 90 minute seminar videos. Keep it in the back of your mind next time you go to film one of those.

    Baby plugging and Pop-X stick are great rods, the Siglett in the P5 lineup is also a great BFS rod. Throwing 2” swim baits far and accurate. Catching fish is a blast on it.

    Great video! Another great BFS bait is OSP Picro 68, in either the slow fall or floating model.

    Really good idea to go 5” slim senko I was trying a 3” fat senko but I think the longer profile will keep the panfish away. Try putting your 3” fluke baits on 1/16 oz flashback mini chatterbait the action is unreal and will catch fish anywhere. I like the 2.4 metacraw on a bait finesse Evo jig right now too around cover it’s an awesome new jig. I got a 7 lber from under a dock this spring on a 1/16th oz spin jig and 6 lb line by doing just what you said I kept pressure and let him come out. He had wrapped around a piling but with the soft rod I just kept pressure and didn’t panic and he unwrapped himself and came out from under. It was wild. BFS has made fishing so much fun for me over the last couple years.

    Hey Matt, let me put on on almost 49-year-old "get off my lawn" old man cranky "grandpa" (not yet a grandpa) hat for a moment.😅 Tim and you have fallen in love with BFS, very cool... and yet I find it interesting that the two of you never discuss the extraordinary lineup of ultralight hard lures from Rebel and Heddon.

  • @edersonnhamilton
    @edersonnhamilton

    BFS fishing !!! I’ve been telling people it’s the way to go! Im throwing 1/10oz cranks and the bass have been loving them. If the bass are not biting then I stoop low and throw a 1/16 th to catch a gilly to boost my confidence up lol.
