    To start off I’m a stats nerd in spinning reels. I tend to fish more saltwater so I know all about what each spinning reel is designed for. However I started bass fishing for bass recently and was wondering if some expert here could help me understand what each of the following reels are meant for? Also how do the different models (I/k) affect the performance. Chronarch Aldebaran Bantam Metanium Antares Exsence Scorpion Also any recommendations y’all prefer? Looking for a long casting, fast retrieve/hg, 150 sized reel as a do everything rod. Hoping to find a used one for under $200. I won’t be throwing large swim baits so most of the stuff will be from 1/8 to 7/8. Would an MGL be too lightweight based? Shimano or Daiwa would be preferred. Thanks

    Just wondering how the shipping times have been and which method of shipping would be fastest. I seem to recall that EMS was having delays and FedEx was quicker, can anybody corroborate?

    What are some of the best JDM soft plastics out there? I recently bought some Imakatsu Hairy Hawg's and want to expand my JDM collection.

    Writing to get other peoples past experiences on the matter, LMB fishing in Japan. I am active duty USMC in the Iwakuni area and having difficulty finding reachable by walking biking or taxi nearby fishing spots. I have had limited success at the mouth of the Imazu and Monzen river and at this time of year (November-January) I haven't even had a hit. What do you suggest I throw? The water is cold flowing down from the mountains, moving fast but on average 1/2 oz can hold bottom, clear enough to see to the bottom at the deepest part roughly 7 feet, and almost no structure with the exception of an abandoned water inlet for a long gone paper factory. I am interested to try new techniques so do not hesitate to throw an idea out there.

    Tungsten in the past 5-10 years has revolutionized bass fishing. Using lead bullet and drop shot weights are a thing of the past for most avid fisherman. Tungsten being two times more dense than lead is a must have in fishing Texas rigs. You can still have the fall rate of any lead weight but at half the size now that is a huge advantage. But the main problem with fishing tungsten is the price! If you go into any of your local sporting good stores buying a couple weights or only one weight can be a whopping 6-10 dollars!! And that is a lot of money; for anyone no matter who you are. But if you still want to get tungsten weights at a cheaper cost here is the link to do so: http://www.omfishingsinkers.com/Tungsten-Sinke/tungsten-worm-weights-green-pumpkin-free-shipping-if-your-order-is-40--or-more-Delivery-time-9-11days_p-80490.html. I have purchased from this site many times and it is 100% reliable. It does come from Asia however so give it a week or two to come in. Enjoy!

    I just ordered a Megabass Levante series flipping rod and was wanting to get some opinions on reels that are out on the market. I know the Levante is a US Megabass rod but I was really wanting to look into getting something JDM for a reel, I would like to say below $250 and wondering what some of your opinions are. I looked into the Megabass FX68, and multiple daiwa reels wanted to get some opinions before I spent money in a market that I'm not fully fimiliar with. Thanks!

    I've been waiting to pull the trigger on this one, very expensive for my taste. Running at 20-25 dollars I'm hesitant, so I was wondering if anybody else had as much luck as this guy? if you did what time was it? How did you retrieve? Looks awesome like it could draw up fish. Love the colors.

    This is a way to fish sack style with three worms seemed a little over board for me. I used: VMC weedless whacky head flick shake 3- junebug 4.8 flick shake worms caught 11 fish all one pound except for a 2.5 I really had fun fishing this. Been fishing whacky a lot this is a good way to mix it up.

    I fished the bluegill colored flick shake wacky style today after a heavy thunderstorm in Va. There was a creek running into a pond on a golf course. Very muddy pulled out a couple of these. I didn't think wacky rig would work after all these hot days. Any other way with success with these worms? I want to use them in every situation I just haven't had success many other ways. If you say flick shake I would like to know when the right time to use this. 3.5 pounds.

    So I just got back from my week long trip to Japan I'll update this post with more details later, but I figure I'd share my JDM purchases while I was over there. I ended up getting some reels that I didn't think I was going to get, but it was too hard to pass up. Saw way too many reels, but decided to pass on some good deals like an Alphas Finesse Custom for $110 (it was in mint condition) because I knew I'd be doing some more offshore jigging this year versus bass fishing. So here was my final purchases: 1) Shimano Exsence DC (Brand New) 2) Daiwa Certate 2506H (Used, but in Excellent Condition) 3) Shimano Ocea Jigger 5000P (Brand New, bought two of them ) Here are pictures: Shimano Exsence DC Daiwa Certate 2506H Hi Gear Custom Shimano Ocea Jigger 5000P

    Hello Everyone! I am heading over to Japan this summer with my family and will be stationed at Camp Zama. I have looked at past threads and can't seem to find any info that is very current. Does anyone have any contacts around the Camp Zama area that I can link up with for Bass Fishing or even just contacts in general? I am not above jumping on a train and riding it for four or five hours just to fish! This is my dream assignment and want to start making contact with people now so my daughter and I can the ground running! Any and all advice will welcomed. I am looking to make the most out of the next three years over there. Thanks for reading, Brad
