I got ya, I have 2 Rick Clunns and an Extreme combo also, I like to tighten up the first brake to where the lure doesnt fall. Then I loosen up the brake til the lure first starts to fall fast. Then I set the other brake on the side to about 7 for 1/2 ounce lures. I use the higher brake to keep the spool in check while the lure has more pull from the free spinning spool. I can cast quite a distance longer than the with the suggested settings.
I tried heavy and light spiderwire, it's too waxy imo, always dug into the spool with heavy lures or strong casts. Power Pro on the other hand is a gift from the man upstairs, I love it and will fish no other braid, compact like tiny rope, strong as can be and casts forever. Power Pro all day long...
make sure to spool the line correctly if you are using a spinner, counterclockwise off of the spool, and trolling will smooth out any twist, let the line sit out for a few minutes while trolling without a lure on, just line
What about the idea of using scent for a more convincing bite, after they go for it, just like a burger, wouldnt they smell the scent more intensely when the worm is close to their mouth, maybe they would hold on longer once they decided to hit it...
Sometimes I wonder if Roland Martin knows if what he's putting on is sunscreene or megastrike, either way he uses it like it gone outta style, I've been wanting to try it for a while, looking forward to your review...
they dont seen to change a lot for me, not that I catch enough fish for a formal study, I use the Chart Spike It Garlic dip for worm tips and skirts and such
My baitcasters tend to be a lot more tiresome on the wrist than my spinners, I can usually get more snap and a longer lure travel distance with my spinners also...
