  1. Get some braid line and never worry again. I'm doing just that for pitching and flipping. I bought Sufix 832. I use CX 15 & 20 moss green.. It's extremely low stretch line. In fact I personally like it better than FC.
  2. I'm not familiar with the reel but I do own a Black Tech rod. No complaints from me.
  3. I was tempted for the price but I decided not to be cost conscious and bought Sufix 832.
  4. I know we're talking braid here but I'd like to add this since you mentioned distance. I've started using P-Line CX.. The line casts a long way. Give it a try if you are in the mood to test a line one day. I'm not sure if braid will get out any further. You guys can tell me.
  5. That makes good sense. I just bought my first spool of braid. I went with Sufix 832.. I like the feel of 16-17 so I opted for 65#. Hope I did the right thing. I'll be using it for pitching. Seagaur lost my business....... Farcem!
  6. I just ordered a spool of 832. I don't like thin line so I bought the 65# which is about the same as 17#. Never used braid before.. I'm looking forward to trying it. If I went to heavy let me know your thoughts. I'll be pitching with it. Nothing more.
  7. You can buy a Lews Tournament MG on sale.. Great reel in a tiny package. As for rods 6'6' is a good start. Check out the Tech rods at Dicks a Berkley Shock or maybe a Bass Pro rod to go with the reel. If you're on a lower budget get the Black max reel and a Berkley Shock MH rod and go have fun with it. Cost will be under 100 bucks.
  8. I'm sticking with the MJ's.. My eyes are extremely sensitive. They're the only lens that keep my eyes from burning and watering.
  9. I got the go boating app.. works great.
  10. Boy am I glad Anthony Wiener isn't on this forum!
  11. Maui Jims are the best you can get. I've been wearing them for years and years. http://www.mauijim.com/
  12. I've been fishing for 50 years. Fished BASS in 80's and 90s in the North East. I'm no rookie. .... Brand new invisx line, second cast breaks off mid way.. over and over.. emailed Seaguar. they responded by telling me it was caused by a backlash. They blamed me for bad line. There are post all over forums about how bad invisx is.. I'll never invest in Seajunk line again. There are as many guys who hate the stuff and been scr*wed with it as I have. They got the same response email I got. I offered to send the line to them for evaluation. They ignored that........
  13. This one gets yelled at a lot, he has a permanent pout face.
  14. I'd like to try 16# Sniper.. I'll buy some this week. Before I bought the Seajunk I was going to buy Sunline Reaction. They didn't offer 1000 yard spools so I passed. BIG mistake.
  15. I'm not familiar with Mccoy I have used YZ. I'm having good success with P-Line CX. Mike, What didn't you like about P-Line? Which lines did you try?
  16. I'm using P-Line CX now. The line does everything well. You may want to give it a try. Invisx was an absolute nightmare and Seaguar owns up to nothing negative. I will never buy Seaguar line again nor will I endorse them positively in anyway. Bottom line is they took $100.00 from me and laughed all the way to the bank. They're line sucks and so does the company.
  17. 2 mph with a single blade beetle spin.
  18. I had the 15 on a Lews Tounament Pro 6:4:1 and a St Croix Premier Rod. Light cranks and spinner baits. The 20 was on a Lews Tournament Pro 7:1:1 and a Fenwick HMG I was worming with it. The other 20 was on a Pflueger XT 7:1:1 and a Lew Magmun One Bass I was using for jigs. I ran the line out on all three and reeled the line back in to get a nice tight spool. I'm doing this religiously now on all of them. No line digging after doing it. It was flawless on all three rods and reels. I'm sold on it. Caught 3. Hooks sets were spot on and the line offers great feedback from the baits and it casts silky.
  19. I used 15 & 20 lb test CX moss green yesterday and today. I was very impressed with the line. I'll keep using going forward.
  20. Thank's for that information, It must be the Yo Zuri line I used with it, a boat load of stretch..I'll re spool the reel and see how it goes. The bend test results must have been typical of the blank. Although it always seemed stiffer to me. Like someone else mentioned I must be getting very use to my newer and heavier action rods.
  21. I bought a 1000 yard spool... Junk all the way thru. Customer service was garbage.
  22. I used PLine CX today for the first time. It's a quality line and priced very reasonably. Made in Japan. I like it.
  23. I'm using CX, I was using Floroclear. I'll have to give the fc a try. I wasn't thrilled with seaguar red or invizx at all. It sucked!
