+1 RM's the real deal! Thanks for all of your help! Ronnie

Top 5 4 Shimano 50 Mgs 1-Calcutta TE200DC I love them Mgs, I'm never afraid to cast to the smallest hole in the thickest cover. They are so smooth & reliable, they instill a lot of confidence. The Calcutta DC will cast a feather into a stiff wind. LOL Ronnie

Thanks for the post.....also... The Word (Jesus) became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. MERRY CHRISTMAS FISHER..... from a fellow fisher of men. Ronnie

Savor the time they only want a Barbie car my friend. My youngest daughter was campaining today for a Honda CRV (a real one). They grow up fast and they get more expensive if you can believe that! LOL God Bless, Ronnie

Not sure yet what my daughters have gotten for me, but I already know what I got for me. LOL My youngest just laughs out loud when I ask her to wrap a present I bought for myself and put it under the tree. When she asks what it is i say " I can't tell you, I want it to be a surprise" LOL It's a Chronarch 100BSV, like I need another reel. LOL MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ronnie

You can believe anything you like, but this is cut and pasted from Shimano's website.... "VBS weights need to be adjusted to the bait you are using. Turn all weights on and start casting while turning one off at a time until casting distance is good and backlashes stop." One at a time suggests to me that it is OK to use just one and not pairs to correct the braking. JMHO Ronnie

OK Wayne, The counter is up and running. Now you can count right along. Ronnie

I agree and have kind of been operating that way recently. As a full blown deputy in the Shimano Posse, I will henceforth try to give only requested feedback and opinions concerning the equipment I use. Ronnie

Dom, It stands for Rich Site Summary RSS. If you keep track of a lot of weblogs or news sites and message boards like this. The RSS service will constantly keep track of the areas, boards and sites you frequent and display new content for you on your homepage. You usually have to subscribe to a Global RSS provider like Google, Yahoo, MSN to provide the service. Bass Resource now supports this feature. COOOOOL! I hope that helps. Ronnie

Here's a pic of the 340 Dart.(not stock)..........easily confused. my mistake. http://carnut.com/show/05/bcd/bcd055.jpg Ronnie

My Dropshot rod has 'Recoil' guides. No inserts to break or come loose. Ronnie

For those not old enough to recognize 'flippin4it's' dream ride, it's a Dodge Dart 340 - six pack. It was the quickest stock production 1/4 mile car for many years. My dream ride is also a Chrysler product......... 71' HEMI CUDA' Yea baby!!!!!!!!!!!!! And my other dream ride, which I actually own...2003 Honda GL1800cc Goldwing

FIXED! Thanks! Don't know how I missed that one. LOL Ronnie

If you scroll down in the ad the guy says the spool also fits the Sonora 4000FA. I don't know personally, just going by the Ad. Ronnie

Cliff, Glad you are liking your Revo. I hope the rod is still working well for you. here's a new spool http://cgi.ebay.com/SPARE-SPOOL-FOR-SAHARA-4000FB-BRAND-NEW-LETS-GO-FISHING_W0QQitemZ280133178785QQihZ018QQcategoryZ36147QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem?_trksid=p1638.m118 Ronnie

Merry Christmas!! Thanks for all you do! Ronnie

Shimano Posse, yep, but it's still not fair to compare a Revo ($100 to 200) to a Core ($350-400) they are not in the same class. JMHO Ronnie

Excellent! MERRY CHRISTMAS! Ronnie

With no other information about what size, how you plan to use it, etc. The Core is worth more money than a plain Chronarch. I am tempted to buy a Core. Ronnie

Rod- G. Loomis custom MBR844C spiral wrapped. Reel- Shimano Chronarch 50 Mg with 50lb Power Pro braid with Vanish leader. Baits 1 - 7" Culprit black shad worm with 1/4 oz bullet Texas rigged. 2 - 1/2 oz Terminator black & chartruse Jig with Uncle Josh black widow eel trailer. 3 - 5" *** black *** weightless. 4 - 3/8 oz Spot Remover with pumpkin seed Zoom finesse worm. 5 - Zoom Horny Toad in black. Ronnie

"The Jerk" Steve Martin's classic. Ronnie

I use a G. Loomis DSR820S GLX dropshot rod with a Shimano Stella 1000FB reel and #6 Yo-Zuri Ultra Soft line. Ronnie

I have caught a few 3+ lb bass on the fly. There is no reason you couldn't catch a big bass with fly tackle. There's a guy on VS TV that catches 500lb billfish on a flyrod. Ronnie
