    I only buy them on sale, but then that's how I aquire most of my bait and tackle. They do work, but really I like strike king cut-r-worms better. I think the best stick bait of all are Megabass Dot Crawlers, but if you think Senkos are expensive and not durable enough, don't even think about Dot Crawlers, even if they are on sale.

    Snaps only or a nonslip mono knot if you know you won't be changing your bait for a while.

    I like owner ultrahead wacky hooks myself. They let it fall horizontally and get down to where the party is. Just use light line and light drag because they have realm light wire, needle sharp hooks.

    my type r is like that, but not the regular one. I put a little oil on that seal and it helped a little, but it's still a pain. I want to make a hedgehog order anyway...

    what you think are gears may be spool or level wind bearings, too.

    you might get away from fast action and go more moderate. I got a shallow sv spool for my T3 and I'm thinking the med light tatula will be the best match. It fishes mod fast and is rated 1/4-5/8, but from what I've heard it seems more like 1/8-1/2. Anyway, a more moderate action will aid in casting distance and hook sets with small, needle sharp hooks while helping protect light line from shock.

    Wow, thanks a lot, man! Learn something new every day.

    Hmmm... Maybe it would help that guy who wants to flip and pitch with a spinning reel.

    never mind. It's LBD...

    Daiwa 13 plaiso 2500h-LDB ldb=lever drag button?
  11. poisonokie
    its a Daiwa Plaiso. They have a couple of models like that.
  12. poisonokie
    that's why I think it serves some other purpose, because these are fairly high end jdm reels

    I saw a cheap bass pro reel like that once. I don't know, I think finculture is right about it having to do with the drag. What little I could make out in the item descriptions about them seem to say something like that, but there's just so much lost in translation with those that I have no idea. Some make it sound like it's a two speed reel, too, but like I said who knows

    That's about all I know. Heavy jikas and pegged punch rigs are about the best ways to get down there. Now you could stay on top and hop a frog or rat across those mats. Or attempt to rip a trap or chatterbait, or swim a jig or underspin around the perimeter.

    They are similar, but not as snagless. They are more for dragging across hard/sandy flats like a football jig, but with a free swinging action.

    I don't know, I mean they do actually test the rate of deflection, mass, and other dynamics of the rod, as well as break down the quality of the components and overall value.I feel like they're pretty thorough and objective.

    you don't want to reel any knots back through the t3 line guide so it's best to use the least amount of backing possible to make sure you don't have to.

    The shallow. I would've done that if I knew exactly how much 20# I could cast off of it. I'll use it for 1/2 oz cranks, too, and based on how the 1016 spooled with 30lb line casted those, the sv with 20# should fling em into the next county.

    Daiwa PRCN702MHFS

    For me, 100 size reels are the best. I fish lakes and ponds for bass with typical bass tackle (1/8-1 oz cranks, t rigs, topwaters, etc etc. No big swimbaits) and never have any problems with line capacity. In fact, for weights at the bottom of that range I like an even shallower, lighter spool that will start up with less effort. Some reels are actually smaller with shallow spools for finesse baits like the Curado 50 and Alphas sv 105.
  22. poisonokie
    With Daiwa its the same frame, a 200 just has a deeper spool. So it's for throwing heavy baits a long way with higher test line to fish that make huge runs.
  23. poisonokie
    Oh, me too. I'm just saying that finesse baits aren't necessarily light. I've got a reel set up to cast down to an eighth and it does it really well. That's around the weight of a Crosstail Shad on a #2 hook, which is the lightest I'd ever use. You're right, it wasn't cheap, but it's worth it. Come trout season, I'll still be out there with my UL rod and 500 size spinning reel, though, throwing single salmon eggs on a #10 hook, though. I don't think there's any escaping that. Catching anything on a setup like that is a total blast.

    I haven't used those, but they look nice. All I use is owner lead and I love those. Tungsten would be awesome, especially since they're hard to lose, but owner only offers those in a package with hooks.
  25. poisonokie
    Well, to me a topwater needs a pretty moderate action, not good for pulling pigs out of the weeds. But it is pretty much just a long, heavy jig rod, just with a softer tip.I prefer more moderate than average actions for all my rods, though.
