  1. better than my proposed offer I was going to type up
  2. I rarely ever do purposely for the sake of "Imay lose a fish", unless I see my braid looks raggedy of feel something weird on other lines. I change lures often enough tho or have to repair my frogs so I guess the knots are pretty fresh for the most part.
  3. pandoras box has been opened The chronarch has been out longer and has a solid track record so far. The gen 3 revos are new so the hiccups may not be worked out yet, if any are there. I own neither this review was just posted on the stx http://bit.ly/W2FrevoSTX
  4. great tutorial...easy to follow
  5. I have been catching the heck out of them. Quite big also. When Im using the frog its like 12 snakes to 1 bass. Using other lures or worms its all bass, bass have now becoe the fallback fish.
  6. cheeeeeep, especially when the reel is 80 at tw.com
  7. no I havent, ive seen some decent reviews and its not expensive at all
  8. distance...arbor combo? http://www.pfluegerfishing.com/products/products.php?p=86
  9. did you try what I posted...thats the combo in the pic with the black release screw for the sideplate. Both my lews/revo have the same release mech, even the bass pro pq..but its a pull pin
  10. does it have a screw on the handle side that loosens the side plate on the opposite side(next to the word spool)? It looks like a black screw on the cabellas site....that should loosen then you should be able to twist off the side plate from history of other reels http://images.cabela...wGWhro-LqASAGAM
  11. try the 2 stickies on setup and casting in this forum
  12. thanks
  13. I had a carrot mh, 2 in fact, one lost buttcap within a day and the other had a spiral crack around the tip going down the rod. I loved the rod but the durability issues are ugh, Id still try it again just because I like the color, lol. Only rod Ive ever had a problem with, has to be manufacturing probs because I always raise an eye to people breaking rods. I caught less than 5 bass on it probably, missed 2 snakes on it.. I have a mh veritas also, micro guide version, its stiff like people said, more to heavy side. Its my favorite rod I have a bps mh micro carbonlite which I used to frog fish, bottom contact fish, and I have used it for flukes, it may work for you. I have used it exclusively the past month as my frog rod, I dont fish for bass when Im in an area I can catch snakes, bass happen on accident for me and it handles them too. A few 2-3lb fish, no monsters. It handled these and many others with my drag locked down all the way, so Im sure a bass wouldnt be a prob
  14. http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/97950-villain-first-impressions/page__hl__%2Bvillain
  15. those look like whales, wow
  16. If you want to buy the reg version you can try fishfreak online, they are in wpb off of forrest hill blvd and 95, mom n pop and really nice people shipping is free and should be quick if you dont want to drive up there tomorrow 99 bucks the micro is 129.99 which I know walmart has and is much easier to get at wally
  17. I have a tournament mg in lefty 7. I use it for whatever basically. Got it from gander
  18. You can probably just go to walmart and mess with one first hand. My friend has one, nice rod. Really light and balances well with 7 and 8oz reels. I wish it had a texas rig hook keeper. Made in the usa.
  19. magical day
  20. I have a green one on my kvd swim jig. Ive gotten fish on it but none actually made it into my hands. They came off at the shore. Good sized fish
  21. My boy swears by 45 and 55 size koppers, I use 65 koppers/spro for casting distance. Pad crashers are a bit smaller in size and cheap, great hook up ratios too. I use those on narrower canals.I have been using superglue and mendit to fix them so I havent needed to buy them in a while. 45t
  22. thats good because youll be the snazziest fisheman at the lake....veritas is a great rod, beautiful looking, light, sensitive and strong
  23. Id rather the pq out of those listed in the OP leave that shimano combo at dicks sporting goods on the shelf
