lure shoutout rapala j05
havent seen it on here so wanted to share.
its not really finesse but its awesome for whippy bfs rods like most of you use.
its action is wonderful and the price is very fair compared to a lot of bfs specific or otherwise boujee brand lures.
the only real downsides are that its a light weight floating bait. it must be retrieved the whole time and it can be difficult to cast due to it catching air.
I used it for a few hours today under docks and around grass and caught my biggest sunfish as well as a 3 other sunnies, 3 LM, 2 rock bass, 2 black crappie and a perch. most of which on the j05 brown trout, switched to rust crickhopper afterward.
funnest catch of the day was LM around 3lb. I normally switch between my regular casting combos and this (CQBFS 17/bouyancy 7' UL) so going double digits on only ultralight bfs was a blast.
