Caught it on a BPS Riverbug. Green pumpkin, blue flash. I dip the flappers in JJ's magic. Chartreuse garlic. Hootie

Definitely not ready for snow yet...lol. Hootie

Was a bit chilly, but the bass didn't mind at all. Hootie

"Perfect"..... Hootie

The devil is in the details. This old man needs to look closer....lol. Hootie

Did I read that right? You broke it and now it's 2" longer? Hootie

Interesting for sure. I never realized that there were so many different reel seats. Guess I never really paid any attention. Not surprising then, that there are so many different opinions. Hootie

Should have posted this here. Didn't take a week. New JDM Shimano Scorpion XT 1500. I put line on before the photo so Goose wouldn't yell at me...lol. Sorry for the lousy photos. Hootie

Are there any reels other than the St Croix legend tournament using the SK2? Hootie

Digs in to what? Hootie

What is the reason some don't like it? Is there a problem with it? Hootie

Y'all know I am a Loomis guy. Well, today I was at Field and Stream and picked up a St Croix tournament legend rod. Had to put it down and get out of there. WOW....those rods are nice! Hootie

1 This topic took a a left turn somewhere. Hootie

I think everyone makes this bass fishing "WAY" more complicated than it needs to be. Just fish! Hootie

While I am a Loomis fan boy, my Shimano Stradic is mounted on a St Croix spinning rod.....shhh!. Hootie

I am much older than you Bill and I am in the best of health. I don't trip over anything, don't fall off of anything. I do all my own work around home. Last year I put up 110 ft. of privacy fence entirely by myself. That's a whole lot of post holes and concrete. I was offered help but refused. Just wanted to see if I could do it alone. I am not gloating.Just after reading your post I realized how blessed I am, and how grateful I am to be able to do all this at my age. Hope you get to feeling better soon. Hootie

Nah, I'm purtier than that...lol. Hootie

Hootie

John, you got all this fantastic gear, and you have to get motivated to go fishing? I would have to get motivated to go home...lol. Hootie

Just reading all these posts gets me fired up. Hootie
