    Moving batis = no leader (cranks, spinners etc) Slow moving baits = leader (drop shot, shakey head etc) No scientific evidence to prove my theory, just personal belief.

    The E2 heads are AWESOME!

    I am an only child, so I can't comment on how strong a bond can be between brothers. That being said, I don't think I would share information with a brother who had already won a classic. However, if it were my Son, I would give my life to make his better. So, I would do anything to help him out. I know this isn't about children, but I don't have a brother so I was just commenting on what I know.

    Contingency money is where its at. I don't know actual figures, but winning with said sponsor pays a lot more than just endorsing them.

    Wow! That's tough. But, I guess that is about the best attitude one could have.

    I would hate to see how some of you guys dress.

    Core 50 Mg on a new Cumara or Chronarch E series on Crucials.

    What happened with Chris Lane?

    Ike just took the lead

    Would be a great reel. I have a 50E and a 200E7, for the application you are going to be using it for, I would go with the 200E7.
  11. jbsoonerfan
    They are good reels, but I don't think $150 is a very good deal.
  12. jbsoonerfan
    They will probably handle just about anything a 100/200 size reel will. Line capicity will be the main difference. I have a Chronarch 50E and a Chronarch 200E7 and they are great reels.

    I don't have the Cumaras, but I do have both the Crucials in a MH-f and MH-xf. I use 30lb braid and 1/8 - 1/4 oz weights on the MH-f when thowing a t-rig. I use 50lb braid and 3/8 - 1/2 oz weights when using the MH-xf. I will sometimes have the same soft plastic on, but will throw them in different areas (open water vs. grass etc.) If I just wanted one rod to do the things you plan on doing with it, I would opt for the x-fast.

    FWIW I have a 7 MH casting rods with perfectly straight guides. (Guess I got one of the only good ones) Good rods for the price. At $37 they are great rods.

    Would this unit link to my HDS 8? I would like to buy this for the bow and keep my HDS 8 at the console. I currently have an HDS 5 linked to my 8 so I can still see the sidescan at the bow (although I'm not sure that is needed)

    I had two Veritas rods and they both broke near the tip. Maybe the quality is lacking because they are sending out free returns hand over fist. I'm not saying anyone would break a rod on purpose but if you are able to get a new rod for $10 and have your rod repaired to then have two rods, what would keep someone from doing so?

    I have used the high end Shimanos, Abus, and Daiwas. They all make great reels but at the end of the day, I choose to fish Shimano. I have nothing against any of the other reels, just a personal preference.
  18. jbsoonerfan
    I love Trokars. But I am a little bit weird as I believe fishing is a confidence thing as much as anything else that we do. I also wear a collard shirt and slacks to play golf in. Not because it makes me a better golfer, but it makes me a more confident golfer. I want to have confdence in whatever it is I am doing and I believe that Trokar hooks give me that extra confidence. Silly as it may sound, that is how I approach things.

    Bassmaster followed by BassAngler

    They still mass produce the cars used in NASCAR today. If you think your buddy bought the "exact" same Monte Carlo that was running on the track in 88 then you are mistaken.
  21. jbsoonerfan
    I think it is because they are probably trying to take care of the retailers that sell their product. Most companies want to take care of the people who are actually "selling" their product as opposed to the occasional order here and there. JMO though
  22. jbsoonerfan
    I like Christie or E2
  23. jbsoonerfan
    I like 10lb Fluoro as my leader material. I use the Sufix and have been really happy with it.
  24. jbsoonerfan
    When I have gift cards I try to use the approach of "what would I not want to spend my money on" meaning if you don't see yourself buying a LC or Trokars or something like that, then I look at using a gift card as a way to get something I normally wouldn't buy for myself. Either that, or I use that gift card to purchase a larger ticket item. Then it is like a discount. That's just me though.

    I got them off ebay. The guy has quite a few on there. They are high quality graphics. I gave roughly $36 a piece for them.
