Hey....Welcome back to the fun world of fishing. I have been fishing for
over 60 years and heavy duty bass fishing for over 32, and to answer
your question could end up being a novel. Your best bet would go to a
tackle/bait shop that is local for you, and ask the same questions you
asked here. Do not go to a K-mart/Wal-Mart for any answers either, they
sell the stuff and not many people there fish. Good luck and most of all
enjoy the outdoors..Take care..
