its not really the problem when the fish arrives at the boat and you land it.... its when you hook the fish, the pogie is swallowed and then the line snaps. then you have a fish with at least 5 oz. of lead in it along with a wire hanger ----> fish can't live that way.

ok yes that is tru and i know very well of those situations. however, i was not referring so much to the lead weight (as in the case of the MV example) as to the metal hangers that become lodged in the stomachs of the bass or fish that took it. as im sure you know, it can easily puncture the stomachs wall and release digestive enzymes into the abdomen of the fish killing it. if it somehow makes it way to the fishes exit, it usually becomes lodged there and the fish can no longer excrete its wastes.... thats all im saying. i have no actual scientific journal to back me up but just have picked this information up from local guys that have done it for a long time.

i don't have an opinion on yo-yoing one way or the other.. i'm sure in the hands of an expert its efficient and deadly. but the weekend warriors are the people that worry me.

i just find it fascinating how bass can survive with that much garbage in their gut. hearty critters for sure...

totally agree with you there. i can't believe that they can carry 10-15+oz of lead and still be "ok".... definitely very hearty animals for sure.

Lead??? What are you guys talking about???

He was asking about Yo-=Yo-ing Pogies ///

The true skill of Yo-Yo-ing pogies has nothing to do with lead....


It's all about getting the Yo - Yo inside the pogy....the rest takes care of itself.....

You can essentially use a yoyo technique in a modified better way as to get your weight back. That is not a problem for most people. It is just another way of presentling your bait.
