    I usually try to buy Power Pro @ $10/150yd.

    Phenix 682 or *** Aussie model 6'10" ML, depending how low you'd like to go.

    CH51E is the best you're going to do for a $200 "finesse" reel. I have one and recommend it. It's going to look like hell on the bright blue LTB though.

    Sweet Jesus, that's red! Do they make lefties?

    You may find this interesting since we fish the same lake. Yesterday I went out with just a Blue Fleck KVD Finesse Worm and a Shell White LC Gunfish.

    I do love expensive topwaters. However Zara Spooks and Pop-R's work just fine. I throw Gunfish, Sammies, Popmax, and Giant Dogs, but my PB Smallmouth came on a KVD Sexy Dawg that I got for $3.

    Rage Craws fit well if you've left the skirt untrimmed. However I trim my jig skirts so I use Chunks or pop a section or two off the Rage Craw.

    Get him a 7" Mike Shaw Slammer. Throw in a couple Siebert jigs and you have one heck of a $50 "thank-you".

    My wallet is terrified. I have a Sol and a Fuego that need matching rods!

    I don't care for walking baits on spinning gear, but poppers I like.

    Personally, I believe that the Crucial is a good step up from the Veritas. The 7'2" will probably need a heavier reel to balance well, but it should work nicely for your intended purposes. It's also possible to throw 5" Senkos on the MH Crucial and put the lighter tubes/jigs on the M. Do what feels best.

    I'd add a 6'8" MH Crucial for the Tubes and Jigs, depending on the weights. I assume you're talking about the older black Crucials; the MH's in that line aren't terribly stout. If your tubes and jigs are on the heavier side, a MH Veritas, which is a more powerful rod, would be a good idea.

    Not quite. Last I heard they were considering it but no plans for anytime soon.

    X2. That clicking drag upgrade is quite the boat-floater. Tatula handle assemblies are a great place to start. I have a PX Type R handle on my Sol and while nice, it is short in length and very pricey.

    The only issue with Dirty Jigs is the price. Siebert is like a buck and a half less.
  17. Cgrinder
    Sounds great! I eagerly await technical details.

    I'm going to buy a 7" Slammer on Labor Day. Maybe that.

    I don't know if you want to spend $100, but Dick's in the area has Curado G's for $99.97. It's good to have options.

    If you can afford $100 rods, buy *** Omens. You said you wanted to stay under $100; they're available during sales for $85. If you can swing it, they're very good rods for the money. To directly answer your question, I have a Skeet Reese glass crankbait rod from that line. It works and catches fish.
  21. Cgrinder
    Poppers no, spooks yes. Braid is awesome for walking baits.

    X2. Even stock, I have one brake on and the tension loose. I don't want to ruffle any feathers, but for me there is no scenario in which that Revo comes close to the CH200E.
  23. Cgrinder
    Bummer.
  24. Cgrinder
    How do they work in grass? My lakes are very weedy.

    Sounds like a nice setup for frogging. Those pads on Kent are looking gooood.
