  1. thats true. line break is much better then rod break. haha. maybe i gotta stop fishing that pier or switch over to an ugly stick. this guy was using an ugly with braided and man, he was killn those smallies...(not literally). i may have to invest, once those asian carps take over our lakes, i'm going to need something with infinite backbone. :-/
  2. I've been catching really good size fishes on a pier i've been fishing. problem is, im using a spinning gear cranking on seaguard 8lb. think its flouro. if they arent big, no biggy. muscle them over, call it a day. but if theyre big, i sometimes get line snaps. thats not good. there really isnt an option to fight em over. shore fishing stinks. anyways, any good line solutions that'll work better then what im using now?
  3. Hey guys. Can you help me out. thinking about getting the older white stradic versus the New green symtre in 2500. Who ever has experience with these reels, please let me know.
  4. im in. ive never won anything before. maybe this can the the start to a whole new world.
  5. I couldve had more then 2 fish strikes, but for sure two were bass. they both hit near shore and visibly came out of the water during my set. I'm using a pretty good setup. avid MH 7 foot, stx, 12 lb mono. Ok, i'll try light sets next time.
  6. This weekend, I had two strikes with my spinnerbaits. Unfortunately, i don't think they got on. After setting, the bait either came loose, or went flying back at me. Is there a way to set the hook with the spinnerbait that will improve my hookset. I know, with spinnerbaits, there are alot of short strikes, but in this case, im not sure if that's what happened. also, is there a specific way of rolling the spinnerbait to improve more catches. my entire outing, with two fish on, doesn't build confidence in using this bait. slow roll? burn? stop and go?
  7. Theres a good tote on this post. http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1269453902/0#0
  8. I'm having fun with plastics. but I'd like to know when i need to use a rage craw versus a sweet beaver (or simular baits). aint they all just plastic? sure ones got action and one doesnt, but does it matter if both are going to work?
  9. Hello, I've spent the last year flippin jigs on braided line. finally spooled my reel with mono. It doesnt seem to be too shabby either. Can you guys give me some knowledge of pro/cons using Mono/Braided/Floro? at this point, they all seem to be pretty equivalent to each other. Trying to make a decision on what to use before the season kicks off in michigan. Thanks,
  10. 12LB flat....nice fish
  11. RW I bought the avid. I'm hoping I'll have a good time with it. 105 was not a bad deal at all. I've got an IMX in MH 7'1. I'm guessing they'll be relative to each other. Probably use one for flippn n the other for spinnerbait. we'll have to test it out though. excited..
  12. HMM yes. thanks. a bit more expensive then i hoped for. that second one looks nice though.
  13. I've seen a shore angler use it once. Its a rod holder that lets him hold multiple rods. it has a handle that you can use to lift all your rods with one hand and move to your next spot. any ideas?
  14. Oh can i rock your Gander mountain discount? haha.
  15. These cranks have Gats treble hooks on them. cant go wrong with that. with Cranks, gotta hook em hard so they dont spit em out. have not yet seen the action of these lures, but if you say so, then... Good choice.
  16. If you toss out a lipless and a quarter of the way in, you've accumulated some weeds on your treble, bass will still strike? or its gotta be clean after rippin it through? I was always a little confused about this.
  17. Hey guys, I might get some insult for not knowing this, however, I'll ask anyways. When do you use one application for crankbait that would be different then a spinnerbait (besides spinnerbait being weedless)? Seems they serve similar purposes (reaction strike). You may insult....now.
  18. Thanks guys. I think theres a law against matching Revo's with quantums, but I'm a lawbreaker. Can you guys compare this rod to a St croix Mojo and a Loomis IMX? I have the two, and would like to at least get an idea of what im buying if i go with the quantum Tour PT. Thanks again
  19. Hi guys. I'm looking to get a new rod to pair up with my revo SX for an all around spinnerbait setup. I've been flippin mostly, so trying to extend my trade skill. I guess I'll be throwing in areas where i'd use mostly 3/4 oz. Can you recommend a rod or rod stats? looking around 100-200. thanks,
  20. Anyone have experience with the new Shimano CI4 stradic? My brother has a Sustain. I'm just curious how it holds up again that reel. Sustain is nice......puts my symetre to shame. help out pls!
  21. In michigan, bass aint hitting no more. WHAT DO I DO? Sugar lake, here i come!
  22. hello, im curious, whats a 50MG going for now a days? lets just say 9/10 & 9/10.
  23. is there a forum on sunglasses (tints, frames, brands, etc)?
  24. i have 12LB mono on mine and for the life of me, i cant keep this line from straightening out and nesting. i think i have 2 birds living in my line right now.
  25. right. technically i cant get anything 5LB+ in Michigan. so i can use 5LB test all day without any worries. technically...
