The ProMariner 3 Bank Charger is a good deal. But it seems to be the same sale as the last 5.

300 for smaller swimbaits

SV105. OG Zillion Variants (used at this point) I really enjoyed the T3 models for flipping, just squeezing your hand would re-engage.

Think of Daiwa's "regular" as "Dobyns like". They are mod fast.

Appreciate it

Then look at the 7' MLR Tatula. 12" handle

Dobyns Furys with a Dobyns Sierra 6'8" medium for your jerkbaits. I love the Daiwa Tatula line of rods. Not a stinker in the line. 7'1" or the 7'2" MHR are great spinnerbait, swimbait, chatterbait rods.

You rock.

Anyone know (or can check) if the Tatula spool will fit in a Lexa or Exceler 100 baitcasting reel? Thank you in advance.

For ME: Avid or Avid-X 7' MH Fast for the Rigging and Jigs (light cover pitching) 7' MH Moderate for the cranks 6'10" MLXF for the Drop Shot 7'4" H Fast for the Pitching in heavier stuff.

a 3000 Shimano is the same as a 2500 Shimano, just a slightly different spool.

I went up to the same company's 7'7" ML Green model for Spybaits. The longer rod really helps get the LONG casts that really help with this technique. 7lb Sniper and a 2500 Shimano reel and you have a great Ned, DS and Spybait set up.

Keep an eye on the handle length. the 6'6" Savy's and Fury's are 14". You might not get along with the longer handle while working the bait. I've borrowed a buddy's 6'6" savy and what hitting my forearms with the handle. The Sierra has a Medium 6'8" that's got a 13.5" handle... That's a bit nicer for sure. Champions have 6'3" model with a 12" handle and a 6'8" with 13" that's a much nicer set up.

This is a 5.9 Champlain Smallie with the normal nose. Locals in the up there said that there are a bunch of the tiny nosed ones swimming around.

Snub-nosed creatures of the St Lawrence. Mine (weigh in picture) was 5.2, the other 5.9. The upper section of the jaw/head seemed to have stopped growing at around 2 lbs. Thing is.... there are a lot of fish like this up there.

Road bike handlebar tape. Should get 4 rods per pack.

Zoom UV Speedcraw.

Year round... Retrieves change depending on the season. My Avatar picture iis a pair of Keitech fish from August.

Powell Diesel 705G at TW for $69 right now... Or the previously mentioned Academy.

It's human trafficking along that stretch that's got everyone's attention.

What sort of swimbaits?

exactly this, you have to have your docs and call in to cross.

Make sure you get the NY and Canadian Licenses as well as the Ontario Sportsman card. Check the tackle shop in Clayton, NY (forgot the name) for good guides. If I may give some unsoliciated advise... Small brighter senkos and 1/2 & 3/4oz drop shot weights.
