Thats a good way to look at it Mark. I will try that. I usually do pretty well around pads, it's the milfoil that I usually skip. How important is it to fish milfoil in a lake? Is it worth hitting, or is time usually best spent elsewhere? I know weed edges and such, I'm not a total rookie, but I'm talking thick, heavy weeded flats/points ect.
I went there once and now I call it Gay Lake.
Stroller just found himself intrigued.
I know about 10 lakes with that name.
I was there on Sunday in my tube. Lots of milfoil mats and the lake is stained with an algae bloom. I got out there late and missed two. One one a worm and a blow up on a frog. I got one that went 5-12 on a purple Culprit worm on Thurs evening. Like the others said..punch the vegetation and fish the edges, and don't be afraid to check the mats in the open water. The lake is shallow, and there is quite a bit of wood in it, and it is very shallow. There are very few pads on that lake. The fish in my avatar came from there. Good luck
do you have special flippers to get through the weeds?

LOL.
Since this post I went and ordered $20-30 in tungsten weights (which gets you almost nothing) :(
Off to Auburn to see what they have in stock.

Is it really that important to use tungsten vs. lead or brass other than physical size of the weight? Just seems like a lot of money for terminal tackle.

It might be a different weed than you are thinking.

I know what you mean Aaron. This was my first order of the heavier tungsten weights. I hate to spend that kinda money on weights too. Compared to my swimbait collection, tungsten weights is nothin. I think I got a decent collection now, Auburn had some also.
I think tungsten for punching is a must, have you ever seen a 1 oz lead weight used for say a carolina rig, HUGE. Brass would be really over the top. I was intrigued when I read the river2sea description. Most of their weights come in a matte finish so they don't shine and spook the fish.
