You are welcome .

Leaders are for fly fisherman.

Palomar and crazy glue tag end so it doesn't fray. I crazy glue all braid tag ends no matter what knot is used.

i feel the same way

Only if it's worn. But then again what does it cost ?

So go leaderless with braid. I've tried flouro a bunch of times side to side with braid. On tough days it made no difference.

Never change one gear and not the other !!!! Just like a differential that makes no sense since they wear into each other.

Why bother ? Dump the leaders.

i tried flouro for years including this year. i ran the same baits on different rods one with flouro the other with braid. i can honestly say flouro yielded NO MORE BITES THAN BRAID OVER THIS SEASON SO FAR. given that i hate so many other things about it im done with flouro. back to straight braid for me. im done wasting money.

Being that I just warrantied a BPS Patriot for a peeling Wynn grip let's hear it from you guys. Especially those who have Wynn grip rods. At this point I'm unsure if I would purchase another.my other Patriot grip is ok but I guess time will tell.

So far so good. Casts far. No backlash Handles big fish with no issue.great with small baits like a new and for pitching jigs. Definitely want another.

My other Patriot Rod has had no problem with the grip

So I went to customer service at the Bridgeport Bass Pro Shop and returned my Patriot. The guy said it's a 30 day return policy. I said it's a 10 year guarantee.He asked for recipt and I said it was a gift and I don't have it. So up the authority level we go and I finally got a new rod. No Patriots were available but I knew going in I wanted a Johnny Morris Signature series with cork grips.wound up with a 6-8 medium extra fast. Rod was 149.99. Patriot was 199.99 .I got credit for extra 50 plus tax. I threw in another 50 and bought a new Lews lfs left handed 8.3 to 1 to replace an old one I have. Had to order online from store but no shipping charge. All together it was a good experience so I will keep on shopping there.

Awesome rod.

I love the blank. Light sensitive and strong. Fuji SIC guides are the standard.

The grip on mine peeled. Going to return tommmow.Other than that it's awesome. The grip on the other one is ok.

Measure it

If you call half as much stretch a little I guess I get it.

Nice. Did you take measurements ?

I keep trying flouro but dont get any more bites than straight braid so eventually I wind up going back to braid.

They ship for free with no tax.

Sufix Advance

Anybody ever had Wynn grips peel? The one on my Patriot rod is peeling off the first layer of color.My other Patriot is fine. Should be fun getting warrantied since they have none in stock.

Try lubing it with really thin lube. Maybe bearings are dry.
