I have a love affair with the War Eagle 5/16oz. Finesse. Brian.

.....................................................................

My pins are all white, I run 2 on, 0 on mag, and spool tension just enough to remove side to side on the spool. If I'm throwing light baits into the wind, enough mag to keep from overruns. Brian.

Of course I took a pic. PM an e-mail address and I'll get it to you. Brian.

I caught one a week ago in Port St. Lucie Fl. that was 90% pure coal black, even the fins. The only light color was a small belly stripe. Brian.

Full replacement cost, the depriciated value on sporting gear wouldn't be worth the extra cost of the insurance. Brian.

I have a rider on my Home Owners to cover my fishing equipment and BR Guns and gear. If something drastic would happen in you're home, you'll wish you had it. Keep an inventory of ALL you're gear, take pics, take video's, keep all receipts etc., list everything. I learned a hard lesson. Brian.

Looks fantastic. Brian.

What's wrong with another PQ at $80 on sale. Don't fix it if it ain't broke. Brian.

Used a Lew's Team HM85 6'10" MH/Fast for a good bit last summer. Outstanding rod, fished side by side with a Loomis Edge 705-1 Mag Bass, the Lew's didn't give up much at half the cost. Brian.

Couldn't agree more. I still fish a 6'8" MH/Fast IM10 Cumara spinning rod as my main bank fishing rod. I throw from 4" weightless Cuttail worms to 3/4oz. SOB Spinnerbaits and it handles them all with grace. Brian.

Dude, were you in my Rod Locker!!!! Brian.

He'll catch fish for sure now. That was really helpfull. Brian.

I give them to a few kids I take out and they catch fish. The short stocky one casts much better than the long thin one. I have a case beer box completely full of them. When they need replacements, I give them a few. They look fantastic swimming. Brian.

I use Stren Sonic Braid. It's fairly quiet, stands up to abrasion more than most, and retains it's color fairly well. We've been useing it for the last 5 or so years without a complaint. Brian.

Amen. Got a new Custom Rod and went out to the local lake to give her a whirl. On the 10th. or so cast, I launched my LC Spinnerbait into the next County. I retied and 10 or so casts later, I launched another LC Spinnerbait into the next County. I finally decided to see what was going on, I'm sometimes dense, and the transition guide of my new Spiral Wrapped rod had an edge like a razorblade. Sent it back and had the guide changed, problem solved. Brian.

That was July 17, 1988, 11-14 on a black jointed Jitterbug. I think the statute of limitations makes that null and void. Brian.

I don't catch fish big enough that it would matter. Brian.

I called Power Pole and they told me it would be fine with my Pro 17 w/a 60/40 Merc. Jet. If you go with 2, they recommended a front/back setup, due to the flex of the poles. Brian.

Good advice to see your Doc.. Tons of new treatments available. I'm going to get Rooster Comb injections in my knee to start the fishing season. It's supposed to last several months. Brian.

There isn't a kid with interest, that I know, who hasn't been on my boat. I got 2 trips planned to take 2 friends grandsons on, as soon as the school year ends. Brian.

As soon as I can safely launch the boat. Brian.

A Mudhole Kit may be a good start. Brian.

I've used the Extra Clear McCoy Copoly for the last 2 years. On my Largemouth rigs I use 12lb. on move baits, 15lb. on bottom contact baits, and 25lb. on the Big Swimbait Rods. It's some fantastic stuff. Brian.
