  1. With what? No picture posted.
  2. P-Line CX has worked well for me. I have no problem with Stren line either. They both work well as leaders.. All my reels are spooled with braid.
  3. I handled a rod with a full ACS reel seat.. I liked it.. I'm actually leaning towards the going with full reel seat on the build now.
  4. I re-live it and re-live it and re-live it. Ouch! I know where he live's................................ I'm going after him Saturday.
  5. Believe me, I've been beating myself up... I was so worried about loosing him I took the short cut. Lesson learned.
  6. Congratulations! You made a good decision and you got a great deal. I own eight Lews reels. Two of them are TPs.
  7. I just talked with "Brian at TackleTrap".. He is sending me a 735 and a 736 so I can get a look and feel of both rods. Can't ask for more than that!
  8. I like the Tatula.. They're groovy!
  9. I lost a 10 pounder in mid air today... I was flipping when he hit. I set him and it was on. I knew he was big.. Very big. When I got him up on top by the boat instead of reaching for him or grabbing the net which was right at my finger tips I lifted him up. He was so heavy the hook just tore out of his flesh and I watched him fall into the water. I've never had a problem like this.. I've never caught a 10+ pounder. Awful feeling.. I'll never forget it.
  10. They're all good, buy the reel you're most comfortable with.
  11. I absolutely believe the rod was labeled wrong. It was a whip. So much so I never removed it from the plastic. I shipped it back..
  12. The 734 Champion arrived this morning.. nicely built rod but It's a whip.. a medium action at best. I just don't get it guys. I had a 734 Savvy in hand and it was by no means a whip. I expected at least a similar action. It's not even close to being similar.
  13. I'm interested in knowing more about Kigan guides.. Opinions would be appreciated?
  14. What was the weight ? Nice job!
  15. No color... Pass on it and buy some P-Line CX.
  16. I'm glad pgersumky was able to determine which reel seat Lews Is using.. I couldn't find that split seat anywhere..... Way to go pger! No one else knew what it was... including you Mike.
  17. I've been using the Stanley Ribbit Hook. I have to order the Owners.. Can't buy them around here... I use the Gambler double now and then. It's a little heavier than the Ribbit.
  18. I had the best year of my life.. Over 20 Five plus caught.. One 8.55..... Hope the Dobyns can keep up!
  19. This is my home on the water! Toads, Frogs and Punch Jigs... Here he is uncovered...
  20. I had a Savvy arrive and the reel seat nut would only turn onto one thread.. I sent that one back. After reconsidering the Dobyns, I decided to upgrade to the Champion. I use Lews reels, I don't know if the reels foot lengths are the same as the Daiwa and Shimano. I like what I'm reading about the rods. Sounds like I'm going to step up to the 736 for Frogs and toads since I'll have the 734 for sparse cover. I'm sure both rods will do great with jigs on them. I also want a 683.
  21. The recent LTB had a bag of Hot Pick and white tubes in it. When I saw them I though to my self.... Where the heck am I going to use these? The answer was simple.. I won't...
