Default new kid on the block

Hey Im new here I also post on two other boards and im always lookin to learn more. I fish for fun not for competition. I use 2 risgs both spinning(damn yankee stiks) 6'6"med action fenwicks one with a mitchell308x and the other with a pfluger trion for wooden plugs and thats all I use plastic worms(Manns Jelly worms =favorite) and assorted wooden plugs covering topwater,mid depths and deep cranks All made from balsa wood (#7silver/black original floating rapala=favorite) and thats all I use and I have fun keepin it simple. I have a 12 foot alum boat with a 30# trolling motor with 2 swivel seats and a depthfinder I never got the hang of using but it impresses other fisherman I fish a combo of small natural lakes, impoundments, ponds and strippin pits and I am looking foward to learning more

Get the HMX, i prefer them, for the cross scrim, I have seen and used an HMG, but didnt like its feel compared to the HMX. Just my opinion. BTW, what Eagles GTs, do you have? And what is the condition, Also do you want to sell them?
