I don't think I even put in a bid my first month. My choices were reserve or reserve. And more reserve. The next month I painstakingly combed the bid pack for every double d/h and non memphis lines I could. And got reserve again. After that, I just bid the reserve lines I wanted, I usually got one of my top three. As soon as a new class activates behind you, you may have more options. But, of course, if you don't put down what you want, then you'll never get it. Never hurts to ask. Good luck.
