First and foremost, it was so great to be back!!! Michele and I spent all of our time in the spring steelhead fishing. We waited till the May 27 to get the boat out. Steelies were fun but it's time for smallmouth bass!! May 30th we decided to go back again and fish a full day this time before we leave for ten days in Texas.
We caught 18 pounds of smallies really quickly and they were just choking the 5 inch Sakamata in just about every single color Deps makes... it was so fun!!!
The Jackall x Shimano collaboration rod, the Poison Ultima PU270M Medium power spinning rod produced the most crisp, responsive rod on the planet. Light bites are felt through the guides, down the blank, and all the way to the angler's hand without being absorbed somewhere in the system like with other rods. The high quality crispness of the rod blank allows for the most accurate casts. This is incredibly important when making precise casts to livescope targets. As usual, the rod still hasn't let me down.
The Ultima's construction is also perfect driving home a jighead when minnow fishing. Lastly, the parabolic curve of the rod blank is excellent of keeping fish pinned all the way to the boat when fishing this technique. From top to bottom, the Ultima is a thing of beauty and the only rod worth trusting this fishing technique to. I've since purchased multiple duplicates.
