I was in Montana several years ago on a Church Mission trip. I took my 4wt 9 ft Loomis fly rod and some one picked it up inside the building and it got stepped on. I called my dealer and he Fed Exed me a brand new one at no charge. He said Loomis would take care of it and they did.

I have been out of bass fishing for several years. Back then the only line was mono which seemed to get the job done. Now we got braid, floro, mono, co pol and maybe several others. I used to fish rats like a lot of people fish frogs now. I did buy a Curado E7. Now I need to get a good frog rod. Something under $150. Now for line I was thinking50# braid. PP is everywhere around here. Is that a good choice? what about rod action? I wil fish some grass in Guntersville and some stumps and laydowns around here.

My kids got me a Shimano Curado E7 baitcaster. All my other reels are 5.3 or so. What should I expect for general all around use. Is it a good reel for light jigs and plastics. I understand it reels in more line per hjandle turn.but in the grass will I have problem with frogs?

Does he have a email address or website?

I need a new BC. I have several issues. Is the Curada worth an extra money over the Citica...would I like the Revo STX HS over the other two reels. My local shop happens to have an employee that is going to rig all 3 reels up using the same rod, line ect and meet me at the boat ramp Monday evening. He says then make a choice. Sounds pretty good. He is also my neighbor. That helps.

Back in 2001we retired and moved form Florida to East tennessee. When they delivered our furrniture some things were unaccounted for. One being a big box of fishing rods. We never got any satisfaction from the moving company. Last week I got as call from a guy at the moving company telling me they found a big long box that they traced back to us. Did I want it shipped to me. Oh yes. I got that box today. It contained 7 All Star rod all purchased during the 1990's plus some odd ball rods. The rods were GT1, CSH, FRH, WR1 and a SJ2 casting rods. Spinning rods were MS1 and a MS3. I have not bass fished in 8 years due to Cancer and Heart issues. However I am now on the mend and hope tp be fishing within the next 60 days. While I am not sure which reels I am going to pair up with the casting rods I plan on buying a Curado E& and maybe a Revo STX HS. I have a dozen AG 50, 550 reels and a couple of Quantums laying around. This may not be the place for this post and it is my first one.
