  1. I use a Jackall Mikey and Spro BBZ shad floater and they both catch fish for me.
  2. I was wondering the same thing. Hadn't seen a few people in awhile.
  3. Two newest additions https://www.flickr.com/photos/10418967@N05/14879370722/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/10418967@N05/14899574613/in/photostream/
  4. For starters, try a Jackall Mikey.
  5. If I like the looks of a spot I will cast it multiple times. You never know. Like Sam said "Patience and consistency".
  6. Buy it If you got an itch, scratch it I say. I've been looking around the house lately for stuff to sell to fund my Megabass rod. Go ahead and get the reel. You'll thank yourself later.
  7. Well spoken, in a day where everything is mass produced, hand crafted costs more. I've been looking at a knife for about a year that costs $500. I could pay a lot less for one somewhere else. Craftsmanship does stand for something. After seeing how the swimbait is made, it's worth the money.
  8. I'm sorry, I meant mono for big baits and floaters. Use the floor for your slow sink and fast sink baits.
  9. Because people buy them at those prices. There's a subsection of fishermen who want the exclusivity of saying they can afford the best and in the marketplace price can be a determiner of quality. That's not always the case but it usually is.
  10. All you need to know https://m.flickr.com/#/photos/10418967@N05/13245022255/
  11. Calcutta TE series is worth a mention.
  12. Someone else had a previous thread on this. The only technique specific rods I would consider would be swimbait rods or Alabama rig rods. That's only because the specs are so far outside the norm I couldn't use them for anything else.
  13. I need someone to talk me out of buying this rod or I'm probably gonna get it and pair it up with my Conquest 250 TE DC. I wanna use it to throw swimbaits from the Savage Gear Line Thru series and the rumored smaller Line Thru baits. The weight range is what's got me hooked. It's climbing the charts on m Christmas list fast.
  14. The new Shimano Conquest is coming to our shores. It's probably not going to cannibalize sales of the D model Calcutta. Those consumers who liked the old model Calcutta TE's did not buy the Calcutta's and probably ordered the conquest from Japan. Who wants to guess a pricepoint on the reel?
  15. I guess I'm the only one with a good experience at Bass Pro. They exchanged my Crucials without batting an eyelash.
  16. Just like a car isn't necessary to get you to work, a baitcaster isn't necessary to fish either. But once you start to use one effectively you'll understand why all the pros and most bassfishermen use them too.
  17. That fact that they drugged the dog would make me mad enough to inflict grievous bodily harm much less the stuff they stole. You can do a lot to a man. Touch my dog and it's on.
  18. Unless I'm using a thick plastic bait, I usually use a light wire hook.
  19. I guess I'm in the minority. My fastest reel is a 6.2:1 gear ratio. I feel sometimes that I can't fish my baits slow enough.
  20. I guess I'm in the minority. My fastest reel is a 6.2:1 gear ratio. I feel sometimes that I can't fish my baits slow enough.
  21. Got one in slow sink, haven't decided on a rod to fish it yet.
