[QUOTE="DahFISH, post: 55455, member: 212"] I used to be a power fisherman like slim357 said, lots of casts with spinnerbaits, crankbaits, lipless cranks you name it. If it needed a fast retrieve I threw it. I started to develop pain in my shoulder and elbow of my casting arm as well as numbness in my hand, so I had to change my style. I'm finding hard to call myself a finesse fisherman, I don’t use light line or tackle, the lightest line I will use is 10lb and my idea of a finesse rod is 6 1/2' MH. I primarily use jig & pigs, Texas rigged worms and I love to drag a scum frog thru the lilies. I guess I would still call myself a power fisherman, just now its more torque than speed. :wink: When fishing I will set a time limit at each spot (no more than 30 min). I will select 3 or 4 spots to fish that day and rotate thru them as the day goes on, figuring that fish will feed at different times of the day. I feel it gives me a chance to cover each area fully but at different points in the day to help me find that days pattern. I used this alot when I was fishing tournys. [/QUOTE]
