Went to a pond in Norfolk 75% locked.Not a bite.Pulled off to greens pond in Franklin 20% locked and got stuck in the snow on the side of the road! Left instead of fishing it.I just want to catch a fish already.However got to play with the new mojo bass spinning rod for a little bit!

50# Power pro or Sufix 832

I personally like the hooks in the packages,I just cant find anything anymore.

Decided to finally organize my terminal tackle.I used a BPS 360 box and used a Zerust divider on every other slot.I wrote hook size and weights on small pieces of cardboard to keep everything identified.I was tired of the mess and digging around to find a hook I needed.How do you guys keep your bits and pieces in line?

Its just a fun basic question.

You can find the vengeance at Wal-Mart for 20-30 bucks.I have both but haven't taken the vengeance out yet.I love the lightning though.

Better?

If you were upgrading a setup andYou could buy one now and save up for the other.Which one do you buy now??You have a spare reel and rod to pair up.

Tie right to the line tie/split ring.Yes

I have snaps.Stopped using them.Just tie direct unless your changing cranks every 2 minutes.One less thing to fail.

Its a slip jig.Slide it on the line,then tie your hook on.

Welcome back!

Or you could sell off a setup to upgrade.For instance,sell off the T-Rig setup to pay for the soft plastics setup you want.

So i was at BPS today to check the 6'8" MXF out today.I paired it up with a Daiwa BG 2500 and that setup was amazingly light and balanced.That BG was super smooth too.It will be mine.Im going to pick up the pair next week!

Great rod for a great price.The BLS get a TON of love on this forum.Throw a 7.3:1 Tatula CT on there and you have a great frog/flip/pitch/swimjig/light swimbait rod

Berkley Lightning Shock.You wont be disappointed.

Stick to 4-5 good setups that pull 2X duty.That is an attainable goal.You'd have to bag groceries/flip burgers for 2 years to attain your list.Having 15 setups,while as fun as that sounds.Is a bit overkill and you'll save a ton of money.

Is Okuma a new sponsor??? I just noticed this

A good old black Booyah Pad Crasher,black/blue swim jig/trailer,black/blue worm.Pretty much anything black/blue.Did i mention black/blue yet??

I picked up an elite at the store the other day and its pretty heavy.Id get a Berkley Lighting Shock for the same price.

Ive fished the Falcon and the Veritas.Veritas runs heavy.I liked both rods.Cant go wrong either way really.I liked the Falcon a little better as i felt it was a little more sensitive than the Abu.

Using 13# Defier Armilo for topwater and jerkbaits.Love it so far.

Id be pitching that thing into bushes!

Sounds normal to me! She has a makeup obsession i have a fishing obsession.I call it a wash.

Definitely multiple good ones.If i had 400 to blow on a setup id have a St. Croix LTB and a new Tatula CT!
