or send it to bass pro shops reel repair and let them fix it.

bass pro shops johnny morris signature or elite series rods.

i'd get the pflueger.

my elite with recoils makes less noise with braid than my signature series with braid and sic guides.

gotta love a guy who can admit the truth!!!

and i've never seen a spool that holds as much line as the manufacturer claims it holds.they all tend to be way over the real amount they hold.

in that range i would pick a pflueger president2.

the wide spool version when spooled with heavier line would only hold around 100 yds.it also recovers 2 more inches per handle turn.this makes it a very good choice for frogging etc. with heavy braid.

2 inches

Value is about far more than price. AND IT'S ABOUT A LOT MORE THAN SHE MAN O'S ;D that woud be shimbindo!!!a few years back shimbindo spinning reels were binding up all over and they did nothing about it.it caused many loyal shimbindo fans to go to diawa.

i let you know when mine comes and i use it.all my other pflueger reels have no problem with lures that weight.

if you fish at night why use flouro?

pflueger trion narrow spool.

i would get a pflueger trion narrow spool for $99.

the new berkley fireline braid in 65/14.

Beyond the 6'6" medium power range is where I start to have the most problems with Bass Pro rods. If you move into the 7' Medium Heavy and above classes of rods, their weight significantly increases while their sensitivity drastically decreases. In this class of rods, there are significantly better choices out there, but they will almost always cost a little more coin. then u haven't fished a johnny morris rod yet.

looks bent to me.

any quality telescopic rod is extremely sensitive.on a good rod u wouldn't be able to tell the differencne.

johnny morris 6-6 mh signature series.

a buddy of mine loves the stuff.

johnny morris signature series

a lot of guys use black because we can't find the original matching powerpro green in a permanent marker.the black makes the line less visible than the whitish pale green it turns as the color wears off.does it help catch more fish?who knows?

thinner braids like 20 lb are better on spinning.thicker braids like 50,65 and 80 work better on baitcasting because they help stop line digging into the spool.

it was 12/50 pp on a pflueger medalist 6040 spinning reel on a 6-6 mh rod.
