Hammer 4

Thanks, and I agree..I've got so much info here already that I never thought would be avialable..Great site!!!!!!!

Ditto, except I use 3# test, heck I've landed 8# rainbow trout with my ultralite and 3 # test, so even a 3 # crappie shouldn't be a problem..

I've bought and sold a ton of stuff online, and never had a problem, i.e. gary yamamoto ect have secured sites to buy, and yup in most cases you can get a better deal on the net.. ;D

I have always used Stren, lately XL 8-10 lb test has been in use. I looked for some yo zuri today, but all they has was 15 -50 lb test.. > Guess I'll have to order some online..

Likewise, all she mano or Diawa...imho they are tough to beat for the $$$ Shimano is pretty local to me, so it's easy if I need a part or service, which by the way, I have to say they are second to none. 8-)

Another Zona vote.. That Moore dude gets on my nerves, and I can't for the life of me figure how he ever got his own show. :

Thanks for the warm welcome guys..

Welp, I use to do lots of lmb fishing in the late 70's up to the mid/late 80's then I kinda gave it up. As I got hooked on motorcycle racing (dirttrack) Then last Chrismas my Son who's a avid angler gave me a new rod, reel and tackle bag, needless to say I was overjoyed Since then I've been buyin lures, and all the stuff I think I need to maybe catch some decent bass. Anyways, I took a gander at this forum which I found via "google" and decided to join up. 8-) Look forward to talkin with y'all, and askin tons of questions.. ;D Greg
