    The up sized 4/0 helped last saturday. Caught some weeds but I could shake em loose and keep going.
  2. Well...had a good outing Saturday but lost a combo due to negligence. It was a daiwa team t 7' MH xfast action. It fished more like a fast. Had a 7:1 lexa paired. I want a replacement MH but not sure if I should go tatula or team s. Tatula has a fast action 6'10" which might be good for swimjigs, soft plastics, swing heads. Or they have a longer MH xfast. I already have a 7'3" 13 *** xfast that I use for pitching and punching and sometimes frogs. I'd also like a 7'4" team daiwa s rated to 2 oz for sanother sitembaits and punching that has a fast action. This would probably overpower and be too long for placing vibrating jigs on target. The 6'10" tatula is hard to find for good price while longer tatulas can be had for less than msrp. As for reel. Should I move my 7:1 tatula to new rod and get a 8:1 type r for *** or get a 6:1 tatula for new rod. Thanks for any discourse

    I just up sized my spro hooks from 3/0 to 4/0. Looks much better and should improve hookups greatly
  4. Spro Their entire frog lineup is exceptional and come in a variety of colors.
  5. I broke down and found a pop max and pony gabot on ebay.
  6. Drag it till you feel a good rock and jiggle it a bit. Looks like a craw trying to back into a hole for defense. Then hop it over and repeat.
  7. My girlfriend mentioned that she spent so much money on a makeup website that she is now a preferred customer and gets early access and exclusive events. Wish TW had this
  8. I'll give you 10 for it. To be honest this should be moved to general discussion. This could turn into an auction which isn't allowed.
  9. Looking at getting one for shakey/drop shot. All kinds of info on the baitcasting rod but not spinning. I've held a few and they are light and balance well.
  10. Megabass pop max That's about all I got scheduled
  11. I buy spro. On the moderately expensive side but they are durable and come with good hooks I don't have to replace
  12. Eeeh...even if you reel slow you are still bringing in a lot of line. I've noticed my chatterbaits ride higher and don't creep through the strike zone even when I reel slow with 7.1:1. Biggest problem is trebles and hauling a fish in too fast.
  13. Had one and sold it. Walks pretty easy. Never caught anything with it. Doesn't really glide, just changes direction.
  14. Out of price range for now Very tempting with tws
  15. Yes, but there appears to be limited colors.
  16. Seaguar smackdown
  17. Anyone ever use one and know where I can buy them?
  18. Is the gamakatsu replacement frog hook the same hook that comes on the spro frogs? I find it impossible to bend the stock spro hooks out from the body and the gamakatsu hooks description says that they stick out. Owner also makes a hook but comes in sizes 4/0 and 6/0 and not sure which would be best for spro 65.
  19. Type r comes in neither of those speeds.
  20. Yeah...had a passerby ask if they were biting well.
  21. I doubt anyone has had their hands on the s rod. I want one but there is very little info.
  22. You mean the skirt was ripped off?
