  1. Not to poke a stick but do you have any basis for saying they are more sensitive than the Veritas or Shock? My Veritas is pretty d**n sensitive. Even my Shock is pretty sensitive
  2. Baby wipes! Man those things can take the bumper off of crome
  3. 18 wow. I never thought I would have lasted 11. I have days where I wonder. The puge divers always seem to get further ahead with less work.
  4. Will do sir! Thanks
  5. When does the Green Pumpkin Purple/Gold/Black come out? My old man used to have a jig he made that color and it was killer
  6. Ive worked in Law Enforcement for almost 11 years now. 4 of that inside a Max Prison. Getting compliments from bosses being there are so many of them are few and far between. My old man (retired 29 year LEO) told me that if you need a pat on the back, go work at McDonalds. Your paycheck each month etc is your reward. Not changing the door codes on you at work is your reward. That badge on your heart means that you have the integrity and what it takes to do the job over someone else. The saying goes not everyone can be a cop. Not everyone can be a Dr, lawyer, sales, own their own business etc etc etc. The fact that you have been doing something at the same job for a length of time without getting fired, wrote up etc and get paid is your pat on the back. I will take 1 thank you from a civilian over 1000 pats on the back from a supervisor. Twice in my career I was chewed out for being out of uniform followed up by two different sets of stripes pinned on my collar. No pat on the back or attaboys at work compares to that. Yesterday I got 4 brand new tires on my truck. Went to Bass Pro and bought me the rod I have been researching for months. I did this because I have money from the job I bust my butt at 40 plus a week that I don't get pats on the back for where I d**n sure am not appreciated like I should be. But with that said the tires and rod..........that's my pat on the back
  7. I watch all the videos read all the reports but am still a big goose egg on frogs. As for d-bags on the water........karma will catch up and I am willing to bet they don't have the afflack duck to plug holes in their boat when it starts taking on water.
  8. You could probably flip or pitch it maybe 1-2 casts, but anything else would be a freebie to a fish. I bet that sumbuck would have some killer action though
  9. There is a pond I hit every so often like that. I started asking around what people were using. Found the small department/sporting good store nearby and asked what people were using. It was so bad that people were crossing over each others lines. Turns out most were using small crappie jigs, live bait and spinners. I threw a few trick worms and had decent luck. So much so that people would come over and throw to the same spot. Long story short I don't fish this very often but for my son he has a blast as its small no wind and flat banks
  10. I recently switched over to #50 pound braid on all but one set up. I have been fishing a few really small ponds with lots of trees for shelter so I haven't noticed it. With the cooler 80 degree temp and the 3" of rain this morning I hit one of the open lakes. I swear every time I made a long cast, my line Kinda acted like a sail. I have #17 pound fluoro on my crankbait set up and didn't notice it at all. Is this normal with #50 pound? Should I drop down to 40# for normal conditions? For what its worth I was using a 1/2oz jig with trailer and a 5" hollowed body swimbait with 1/4oz weighted hook so I don't think to light a bait was the issue. Wind was a small 5-10 mph nothing major.
  11. What type of fishing? What bait? What presentation?
  12. I was waiting for a LMG plug in this thread!! I wish the rest of the line of Sellis rods had the backbone as the flipping stick but what i can't find another line of rods that are tech specific for the price
  13. Looks good. I like Knocksville so this otta be good
  14. I had seen that posted before and made note when looking at the in Bass Pro. Everything seemed inline to me there
  15. Is there a chart that shows what length and power of rod are tech specific? I know the 7'6" is the flipping stick, but I am curious to know the others. I am slowly upgrading all my rods and have decided on the Sellus due to reviews and them being tech specific. Splt grip, love the color and the price is perfect. Ive checked on their site as well as TW's and they dont say. THanks
  16. I have both Suffix and Power Pro. I prefer the Suffix myself. Seems smoother and more limp. PP was very stiff and took more line conditioned and use to soften up. For the price difference I choose Suffix.
  17. I grew up watching them and love em all. I cant wait for expendables 2. Classic killem all Sly!
  18. Thanks alot guys. I will do that. I know where I can get a pot load of PVC for next to nothing. THanks again
  19. What do you guys use to ship them. 1 piece 6-7 foot rods. I have a couple and can't find tubes long enough that don't cost 20 bucks. Thanks
  20. I use mainly shallow cranks. I have no boat so I have to go more shallow
  21. Thanks. I am using an Ugly Stick MH 6'6" and it has a bouncy tip. I looked at the WM and the KVD cranking rods and they are similar in bounce. Is this what I want?
  22. I should have added, Im a smarta** lol
  23. Im not a math expert here, but 54.99-49.99 is only 5 dollars?
