  1. Ill be the desenter on the Merrells never will I buy another pair. I'd grade them a D on waterproofness both will leak in a 1" deep puddle a D on wet surface grip and if there is an incline on wet surface a big F. They get an A on comfort and an A for grip on dry rocks. If I was able to returned them I would have.
  2. I tried a jerkbait for the first time today didnt catch any bass with it but managed a couple recently stocked trout. Also got a perch with a 3" keitech paddle tail.
  3. 1/8th ounce comparison not my video I have both prefer the 70 as well.
  4. My grandmother as well Wooton Kentucky. Even up here Northern Illinois a truck stop has fried apples for their breakfast buffet.
  5. An educated thumb can feather that out rather easily.
  6. BAMA BUG colored senko for these
  7. Okuma Helios is a very good rod I have the 7'MH/F very light well balance and sensitive. Its on sale for $102.46 at walmart. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Okuma-Helios-Mini-Guide-Cast-Rod-7-MH-1pc/34742965
  8. Straight braid even in very clear waters
  9. Did you pay for the pinnacle and helios or were they given to to for review?
  10. works for me with 4 different zman products
  11. There is also a LTB walleye version 8'6" mlxf with a little less lure rating 1/8-3/8. Most feel a FnF rod should be more moderate action not XF.
  12. Senko no, ned rig nada, paddle tail very little. Spinnerbait has been great for me and even a savior some days. White/chartreuse skirt they (crappie bass pike) have hit on the fall as well as dragging near bottom 20-24fow.
  13. A tighter spool tension also makes the handle turn a bit stiffer. I like a free loose handle feel so keep spool tension to a minimum always, dont change it lure to lure.
  14. I dont know about others but I have great success retrieving them slow. I use 24"-26" per turn reels mostly and even turn them rather slowly. This slow retrieve is where the keitechs shine above the knock-offs.
  15. Got this one 18" 3pounds dragging 1/2oz SK Rocket Shad along the bottom 22fow through weeds. Reel Tatula SV, rod brand that cant be mentioned 7'1" M/F , line 16# Sniper.
  16. Few by-products again from a spinnerbait
  17. Wait for the Keitech website 50% off sale and load up. Like a Senko there really is no substitute.
  18. Read that about the SV105 and the Tat SV then purchased them and disappointment buyers remorse followed.
  19. I did not know it's the same person.
  20. He sure does trigger the daiwa fanboys. Simple solution do your own distance casting videos featuring daiwa reels mostly, I will gladly watch.
  21. printed one for me one for my wife and one for my 18yo.
  22. same issue I had with mine random clicking noise on the retrieve "Well unfortunately my Helios developed some issues with noise on the cast and a ticking noise on the retrieve. The ticking noise I believe was in the thumb bar action but didnt bother going into it I just returned it for another brand of reel."
  23. Fish-n-Fool knot(aka -through eye twice uni knot) easy to tie and stronger than the palomar knot to boot.
