Good article on *** about spinnerbaits comparison. you should check it out.

I saw there is a lower ratio one for 115...I'll keep my eye out. Looking at tackle tour, the daiwa has a stronger drag but less stable (18 pounds) while the Lews Super duty gets 12 pounds before it become a little unstable.

Where are you finding Tatula R @ 115?

As some of you know, I've got a 13 *** H 7'3" for christmas. Right now I have a 7:1 Lexa 100 on it. I want to replace one of my low quality baitcasters in my lineup and I was thinking of moving my lexa to my MH daiwa rod. I was thinking of getting the new *** BC reel in maybe 8:1 speed for the ***. But at $180 it is really pushing my financial limits. Are there any other good options at 150 or less that have a solid drag (lexa starts to go at 7 lbs) and fast speed (7:1 or higher). The *** at 8 to 1 sounds interesting but I don't know how the reel will turn out and what drag it has. I suppose I don't need a super strong drag as I'm usually using 3/4 oz weights to punch a layer of watershield. Thanks for the help.

I don't care for eagle claw stoppers

Anyone ever use a push pole? My dad is considering a raider and is thinking of using a push pole to silently make our way through water shield fields instead of paddling.

their new line through soft swimbait looks great, but TW only has in trout pattern. I'll need the baby bass around here

Get 6th sense stoppers from tw. very easy to put on and cheap. No reason to waste time or money on anything other than bobber stoppers (should be called weight stoppers now)

I prefer 4/0 for dbomb

The only problem I have is when people think they are better fisherman or even a better person than others because they can afford a 300$+ lure.

Thanks for the advice fellas

It catches more fish

Lol he must be fishing with alka seltzer hooks

I think it's important to stay fit and healthy period.

I have a lexa100 that is a 7 to 1 reel and I'm thinking of moving it from my 13 *** to my daiwa rod and getting the 13 BC reel in 7 to 1 when it comes out and put it on the ***. Will 7 to 1 lexa be too fast for throwing spinnerbaits, swimjigs? its a mh rod and I'll likely also pitch jigs and trigged plastics.

Is that in USD or local currency?

6th sense bobber stopper

I got my gama trailer hooks yesterday. neat thing was that they come packaged with clear tubing that you can cut to keep the trailer in place. I just watched a video tip on doing just that last week.

isn't the BB more of a power reel?

It casts well...but the action is lacking as I drag it across the ice.

Some people just love sharing their knowledge and passion with others. I know it's cliche, but it's true. Ike can go for 2 hours because he loves it so much and he wants you to love it to. It's a cult really. I'd have no problem creating power points for fishing techniques when compared to powerpoints about the correlation of foot size to foot diseases.

I heard about dsg having curado on sale so I checked it out last week and saw they were 130. should have asked them if it was on sale but not marked

There is really no info on these rods yet. Going to have to wait until spring when people start using them.

7' mh with 6.4 ratio reel. I use braid as it allows me to rip through grass easier. I use revenge's bluegill pattern but have caught them on shad too. I want to try their crawdad color sometime
