I just got this for my topwater setup.I can't wait to try it.

I used to fish this small pond next to a dam and used to encounter beavers all the time.The strange thing was they would always swim by my line and slap their tails on the water.I was never sure if they were trying to scare the fish away so I couldn't catch their meal or if they were trying to knock out fish on the surface.They used to do it constantly.

Do you guys leave your reels spooled in the off season,or do you take it all off and start fresh with new line come spring?

Never used it.

I just bought 12# Yozuri Hybrid for that And jigging

Online order from BPS? You should have it by May ?

I've never fished the M to say for sure.But I've never had an issue with sensitivity with the MH.

I believe TW has gift cards at 10% off right now too.So you could get 115$ gift card for 103.50.Then use the card to buy the zillion for 103.50

Buy more gear

On the Veritas if you want a MH get a M. Its a very stiff rod.My MH 1st gen is my frog rod.

Expensive equipment will never be a substitute for knowledge,skill and common sense.But it sure looks good.

If what you have works for you then it works for you.Are you going to catch more fish on a Curado 70? Maybe maybe not.If your equipment is beat up replace it with what you can afford to replace it with.

Ppicked up the last 4 bags on the shelves at BPS.2 Okeechobee craw,one purple grass and one junebug.All 3"

Carrot stix is under new ownersip.I know a guy who loves his wild orange.Not sure how you discredit a product you've never used.

Booyah pad crasher

I have the BPS one just like it.Its an excuse to buy 16 rods and reels!

Just took some time to clean up a couple of my reels.The Orra winch was a mess.50 qtips and a dab or 2 of grease in the worm gear and a drop or 2 of oil on the bearings its like brandy new.I use Quantum Hot Sauce oil and grease.What do you guys use?

I never make it to the end lol

We do it every year.Some successful some not so much.What's it going to 've this year?? Mine is to give up alcohol and smoking.(chew is a maybe).Also to read more books.

I haven't done anything for new years in a long time for that reason.No need to get killed because some idiot had to have 30 beers before driving home.

I have a Stanley multi tool in my bag at all times.I've used the saw to cut branches and pesky pickers out of my way more times than I can count.

Happy new years! I hope everyone has a happy,healthy and successful 2017 on and off the water.

They pack them pretty good.Plus they bubble wrap the tip

@massyak85 I was at BPS yesterday and they started carrying the Zako.They only had one bag of white in stock unfortunately.

Already starting to see the Cabelas stuff in BPS as they are now starting to bring in Daiwa. Its a good thing
