CTBassin860

50-65# PP or Sufix 832.Depending on how bad that slop is! Gotta cut through them weeds.

I'd love an NRX/Met MGL for a worm rod.Just not in my budget lol.I could get 3 really nice setups for that.

We do it all day everyday.Thinking,dreaming and scheming about that next weapon in our arsenal.Whether its a rod or a reel upgrade,or a whole new rig.Whats it going to be??? For me,its replacing my Veritas with a 7'4" Tatula XT and buying a new Tatula CT Type-R to go with it.New frog/flipping/pitching setup.

I didnt mean phasing out the 70.I meant that the current "new" curado isnt even a year old. Could be that they know Daiwa hit a 500ft homerun with the Tatula CT.For under 150 bucks.

Im still going to but another Tatula CT. That i believe

Isn't the 70 less than a year old??? Maybe something in between the 70 and the 200I?

Yea there are a lot of guys on the Lews wagon and im sure for a good reason.However I can't see Shimano or Daiwa scrambling to compete with Lews prices.

Just finished spooling up and tying a few on.5 rods to fill out this years arsenal.I think I'm going to keep it at 5 and sell off/upgrade as needed.Ready to get this season going! 1. Abu Garcia Vigilante 7'MM/Abu Garcia Orra Winch 5.4:1 spooled with 12# Yo-Zuri Hybrid for all my cranking needs. 2. *** fishing OhMan 2 Black 6'7"/*** In Ception 8.1:1 spooled with 13# Sunline Defier Armilo for topwater and jerkbaits. 3. Berkley Lightning Shock 7'ML/Browning Stalker spooled with 30# Sufix 832 for worms/light jig heads/swimbaits 4. St.Croix Mojo Bass 7'1" MHF/Daiwa Tatula CT 7.3:1 spooled with 12# Yo-Zuri Hybrid for jigs 3/8 to 3/4 oz. 5.Abu Garcia Veritas 7'MHF/BPS PQ 7.1:1 spooled with 50# Sufix 832 for frogs and jigs up to 1 1/2 oz.(1st in line for an upgrade as the rod is down to 6'8" from 2 tip breaks)

You quit the jig when the ponds and lakes freeze over.Never quit the jig.

How do you like that SR??

I could care less where its made.still have to adhere to the quality standards and specifications regardless of where its made.

1st bait tied on this year was the LC Pointer 78.

I've had a lot of issues with the 90 not plopping for the first 5-10 feet of the retrieve.Catches fish still.Never used the 130.

Was trying to throw a weightless wacky rigged senko into the wind with a baitcaster today.That wasnt a bright idea.More overrun today than last season combined.Then i said to myself "i wish i had my spinning gear with me".I did throw the neko rig for the 1st time today though.

Ladies and gentleman we have a winner!Great comment

Hit the pond today!!! Nothing on the pointer 78 or the RES.Couple guys catching them on a jerk and a wacky worm.Ill try again tomorrow.

Only kriet and evers moving on for me

If shipping was free yes it would be ?

Kriet down to 22nd.I blew this one lol

Right now I only have kriet above the cut line.I expect Martens will catch his limit and make it through to tomorrow.But only 2 moving on and 1 top 10.Man

i got the spro rat in morning dawn too.I cant wait to chuck that thing in the water

Yep! Another cheap but fun bait is the BPS Egg wakebait. That's a big Chatterbait

31 for Ott! 2 8lb 6oz fish!

I hope basstrak is way off lol. According to BT Martens hasn't caught a fish yet
