Ok...I will try

[fishballer06]

This is a top notch, late January post and we're getting it here in early December. I'm rather impressed. 

 

Come on man, you have this awesome proprietary jig/spinnerbait head design. Sell it without the skirt and unpainted for those of us who like to build our own. 

 

Come on man, just sell me a cheaper crank/jerkbait without any hooks/hardware on it so I can put my own on there. 

 

Come on man, every casting reel should come with at least a 92mm handle.

Come on man!   Will some one please make a swimbait in sexy grass carp.

 

Come on man!   Will Diawa please make a Zillion without the T Wing.

Come on, man!!  If you’re gonna powder paint your jigs, the least you could do is pop out the paint covering the hook eye for me. And to make things worse I have a jig buster but I can only seem to find it when I don’t need it. 
 I know, I ought to look at them before going out, but come on.

GoPro Battery problem:

Buy a portable USB charger and plug the GoPro into that and it will last all day.

Come on man!!! If everyone keeps buying the products they are complaining about, not much will change. 

[DomQ]

Come on man, they can make a scent to attract fish but not repel a bait monkey, so unfair. 

 

All soft plastics should come with a shell to keep them true!!! I'll pay more for that!

 

Just sell the scorpion in canada so I dont have to go to some site I dont understand to get it!

Come on man, design me some horizontal rod storage that'll connect to a kayak crate lid.

[MN Fisher]

Come on man, design some vertical rod storage where the rods never get in the way of casting.

[Mr. Aquarium]

Come on man! List the lure rating for your rods.  Mostly for saltwater tho. I hate not knowing the lure rating.

Fun thread. Agree this feels cabin feverish. Guess I'm in that mode now too, though, since I'm iced up here.

Whaaaaa???? Why did they take it off? Backreel is essential

WHAAAAAAATTT?????!!!!!!!! Blasphemy!!! My dad just sent me the Sigma 2200-035 I bought for him back in the 80s. It's still spanking new. Simple. Adequate quality (seeing my 030 is still cooking along). Love it.

  C'mon man!  PUT THE WEIGHT OF THE LURE ON THE PACKAGE!

Yes! And true weight at that! I bought a small electronic scale a while back, and you might be surprised. Anal? You bet. 

 

Also, buoyancy (along with diving depth) on diving hardbaits would be helpful: Positive, neutral, neg: -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3.

 

More full-sized lightweight (1/4oz or less) lipless cranks. With true weights; You'd be surprised.

 

"Sebile" (now Pure Fishing) dropped the FlattShad 1/2oz! Are they crazy???!!

 

Some powerful fully Moderate action rods. I think they could take over the industry.

 

Most hook manuf have gone this way, esp Japanese companies, but micro-barbs are fish savers. Cheap hooks with mega-barbs, like all we had in the old days- are just... barbarous.

C'mon man! If I'm paying premium for tungsten sinkers, is it too much to ask for them to have the weights printed/stamped on them? I've seen a few with them, but not many. Honestly would be nice to see on lead sinkers and baits as well.

Yes!

Mine hold four rods: Two at 45deg off back of holder, 2 vertical. ABS glued so rod tips point inward, keeping them out of the way of all casting angles except perfectly vertical. Works well for me. Never know they are there. (Except when a lure comes rocketing back at me.?) My yak has recessed rod holders just behind the seat, so it's an easy mod.

Mine holds six rods, but if I'm casting starboard-forward I have to be carefull

[DomQ]

Come on man why cant rods have proper hook keepers that dont destroy the finish on my rods. Cough zodias Cough

Can you get them directly behind the seat? A minor challenge to reach... maybe 5 there sans the middle one? You do have more beam than my yak does. Just a thought.

Sure - if I don't want to be able to work the TM...also I'll be adding another rod-rack to the starboard side since I now have 7 rigs with more in the planning stage.

Also, all rods should come with a friggin' hook keeper. I shouldn't have to buy a Fuji EZ Keeper for my Expride and Orochi.

I might be the odd man out here, but I don't use the hook keeper. I just hook it to the body on my reel.

That's definitely an option. Personally I don't like doing that. It shouldn't be hard for a company to add a hook keeper to the rod.

[TriStateBassin106]

I'm not paying 8 dollars for something that rips in half during a cast after catching one fish. 

 

 

I will stick with a certain company that has a Y in it's name.

Don't blame you. I think I have like two rods that have a hook keeper that I like the way it's set up. It's just not something that enters into my thinking when I'm shopping for rods now because I've done it this way for so long.

[QUAKEnSHAKE]

Come on man: Loomis make NRX blanks available for builders.

 

Come on man: Bring back 2 speed selectable low profile baitcasters.

[Bass Rutten]

Come on BR give us a dark mode so I don’t blind myself at night!
