Would more like to have seen a downsized Tat. to compete with the 50e. DAIWA WHY U NO LISTEN?!?!

AR Pawl?

Auto or manual? Can you describe the "hucking and bucking" furhter?

My dad's birthday was last week and I bought him a pair of 580 costa's, so this week he just got a wawa gift card haha!

"Flow" kills time for me. Actually, thats the only game on my phone, FWIW, lol

All you pretty much ever need is about 1/3 of the lines rated strength (except braid, the equation would be off). Remember is a chemically/surgically sharpened hook depending on the brand. Locking the drag down isn't really necessary unless your flipping it pitching into nasty stuff and you "have" to do it to actually get the fish out. I would say backing off would make a bit if difference. If you feel it's not tight enough to set the hook, put your thumb on the spool (assuming it's casting gear)

For 90$, I would jump on it. But also remember, you can Bnib 580's on fleabay for sometimes 40$ more depending on how popular the frame is

You are playing the fish to hard/fighting him too aggresively. Your ripping a bigger hole in the basses mouth with the stiffer rod when fighting the fish, and the hook is coming out easier. With play the fish a little softer, especially after a hard hookset

I have a 673, so FWIW, close enough to me. 1/4 with trailer is about the sweet spot, 3/8 will push it, (unless your just pitching), but I wouldnt throw 1/2 on it. I also dont really like the length for jigs. I would opt for a longer rod, atleast 7' , especially if your from the shore.

A special hat; it was a Rusty Wallace black and yellow MGD hat with the snap closure that my dad had when I was little. I wore that things everywhere and all the time. Then one day I guess it got lost or something. Ive been searching fleabay for years to find the same one. Found some similar ones, but not the exact same one.

I work at Jiffy Lube, and its usually about the price of the filter +10%. Its one of the easiest upsales, but also one of the least profitable. But for people who often neglect there cars and maintenance, (atleast in my area), MSRP +10%(ish) is worth it for them to have us do it, rather than try to do something they have no knowledge of how to do (regardless of how easy it is to use the internet )

Trust me, there will be many more powells in our future if you like that one

I like it It makes sense and is a really good idea i've never heard of before!

Good advice here guys, the more knowledge the merrier! What I think would be a good plan for now, and tell me if its stupid, is to mainly use the card for the purchases I make every day on my debit cards, (Lunch, drinks, smokes, gas, etc) and just pay it off right after, and then maybe like a $100 purchase and pay it off over 2-3 months? The repayment think is not an issue because I make almost $1200 a month, and I dont want to realistically go over 20-30 % of my limit. And A-Jay, that is interesting, I did not know that you can sort of prepay it seems like? So I would essentially put money on my credit line, and then it seems like it turn into a gift card essentially, with my money already on it, and I can make payments to keep my "gift card" up to the balance it was at, if I interpreted you correctly? That seems like a good idea to me!

Glenn, didnt think it was blatant advertising or anything prohibited, will re-read FAQ's. Edit: Just read FAQ's, Glenn, expect a PM soon to clarify
