Lew's Speed Spool LFS Casting Reel - EOL

$99.99

Reported by
Dave Carroll

Lake Barkley (KY)

Dave Carroll reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Shallow Diving Crankbaits (0-6') technique and Lew's Speed Spool LFS Casting Reel - EOL on Lake Barkley . Additional comments from this report: "First time one the lake this year. I thought the fish was a little further along but seemed to be still in prespawn mode. The smaller fish were up shallow. Big girls were out in lead in banks but still a little finicky. Shakey head worked but didn't catch any size."

Dick Majewski

Lake Winnebago (WI)

Dick Majewski reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Shallow Diving Crankbaits (0-6') technique and Lew's Speed Spool LFS Casting Reel - EOL on Lake Winnebago. Additional comments from this report: "Caught fish hanging around docks, but moved just offshore and found a rock pile in less than 6 ft of water that had the largemouth and walleye roaming the entire structure. Changing up the cadence of the retrieve seemed to get the reaction strike. Also caught LM on swim jigs and Rapala Scatter Rap as well as a Rock Crawler. "
