I hear ya. I have that happen occasionally, and I always just let them have the spot. The lake is too big and life is to short to let someone ruin my day. But believe me, I feel your pain....lol.

People that criticized the G series Curado, weren't criticizing the reel, but the price point.
Now that they can be had for $100.00, guys are standing in line to get them. If you can find one, grab it.
Very servicable reel.

I see some people who hold on to the rod handle. I can't do that. I feel it makes the whole rig top heavy and I have no control. My hand is on the side of the reel and the line running over the top of my forefinger or between my thumb and forefinger.

When you are holding your baitcaster, where is your trigger. I noticed mine is usually between my pinky and ring finger. Never thought about it before. Like I said, silly question.

I hear that. My first rig was a Zebco
606 and whatever rod came with it. It was a kit.
Also, I was more noticing pros (new guys)that don't have any particular sponsor for a rod or reel.

I have noticed in magazine photos, and on fishing shows a lot of pros using rods and or reels that get regularly slammed on our forum. Have we become a bunch of tackle snobs?

Did you ever see a bird fly straight down? I am sitting on my back porch and just saw this bird drop about 40 ft. straight down. I actually thought it was falling until it landed on another limb.

I really couldn't see the point in passing up a $69.00 BPS Pro Qualifier that can do the job, for a $270.00 reel that can't. It WILL do the job. I'll get back with you at the end of the season, and one of us will eat crow. AND IT WON'T BE ME!....lol.

Have ONLY used mine for jigs. Help me out here. Where is the problem?
Maybe, just because it's new, people are a little scared. Don't be....it's fine and up to the task.
