Nothing scientific here but. I’ve straightened out a lot of jig hooks and pulled up a lot of crap from the bottom with 30 pound power pro. With 50 pound sometimes branches come with it. I’d be shocked to find out if I’m not pulling at least those weights. If I’ve re tied properly. The 50 almost never breaks. The 30 sometimes, but not very often.
I’ve thrown one a couple times weightless t rigged. I really didn’t have the right rod for it then. maxed out my MH rod. I caught the same 1-3 pound fish as normal. It definitely has potential to catch bigger fish. But don’t be afraid to throw it cuz you’ll still catch some. Even if the bite is slow. rigged up like that. you’ll find your self quite entertained in your own personal casting Olympics. That sucker will go a mile.
No doubt, wasn’t arguing that with you. I was thinking if it holds 250 yards of 12 pound mono. It would be a mind blowing number of 30 pound braid. I don’t know anything about j braid though. I would imagine if you were buying that reel, it wouldn’t be to put 30 pound braid on it anyway.
No doubt, could have counted Mississippi’s on that cast. How far away do you try to set up from you’re target. Or is it a big flat with those small schools of perch. You’re always mentioning.
Not much to brag about here. Fishing was terrible almost all season. No rain, hot and really low water. Made fishing from the bank pretty tough. About the only thing I feel like bragging about is. The week before Christmas I was able to score a 7’2” mh expride from TW on sale no less. This rod has eluded me every time I was looking for a rod the last two years. I’ll be more then happy to not catch anything on it. If next season is the same.
Reminds me of the image of my father at the beach when I was a kid. The pockets on the Jean shorts were longer then the shorts themselves. Not cool man, not cool.
Agree with the falcon finesse jig rod. It does really well with allot stuff. To me it feels on the faster side of moderate fast. At least in the Cara line.
