Compre or Crucial?
Just to add something off Reel Mechs post....the compre's have Fuji reel seats as well.

Shimano Citica
Yeah but why order from there when you can get it 20 dollars cheaper before rebate at TW?

Cold water shore fishing questions
Nothing again yesterday. Tried a Rapala DT-4 really slow and also a Fat Ika VERY SLOW. I did some some minnows grouped around shore but no gills or bass yet to be seen. Maybe next week they will start to move up. Water temps are still pretty cold. I'm fishing on shore by the way.

Shimano Citica
That thing still has two more days on the auction. In the end there is no way that it will go for under 69.99 Go with *** for the piece of mind.

citica combo
From an unbiased person that owns both a Revo S and a Citica 100dsv and Citica 200d, you can expect it to perform better IMO. I have played with both a lot in the past two weeks and I can cast farther with my Citica and it just feels more sturdy on the retrieve. You will definately enjoy it.

Weird line problem
Doubt it being the weather. For me anyway...it was almost 68 degrees out.

What are your fishing STRENGTHS?
Wormin and fishing creeks.

What to look for in a plastic bait rod?
I love my St Croix 6'8" Avid spinning rod. Medium power/Extra Fast action. Great hooksets

Cold water shore fishing questions
I have seen no fish activity at all so far on the spots that I have fished. Not even bluegills or pumpkinseeds. How long do fish usually stay deep after ice-out?

Weird line problem
Didn't have a backlash that I noticed but like you said it could have been just one small loop.

Cold water shore fishing questions
Really? I'll give that a go too. When I went to my local 20 acre pond there was still some ice around the east end edges. So I'm guessing the pond melted just earlier in the week. Going tonight.

Cold water shore fishing questions
I'm going to try some plastics today. Water temps are around 42 and I wasn't getting hit on traps at all this weekend. Also tried a jerkbait with no luck. Guess I'll give the Ikas a whirl after work.

Weird line problem
Went out this weekend and was skunked just after ice out.....just felt good to get out there. Anyway I was throwing some Rattlin Vibes and Traps on my crankin setup. 10lb Cabelas line. After a couple hours of throwing I noticed that deeper into the spool there was a piece of line coming up that was not connected to anything. So I pulled line off the spool until I got to it and sure enough it was frayed off. How could this happen in the middle of the spool like that? Obviously being in the middle of the spool it never touched water. Was throwing the lures and line on my Citica 100dsv. Thoughts?

Okay, so what about Toyota Tundra's ???
Seriously Chris..........you won't need that warranty anyway. I have a Tacoma that is three years old this year and I have'nt had one problem with it. The brakes feel just as tight as the day I bought the vehicle which is crazy since I use to change brakes once a year on my last chevy. Buy Toyota....you won't be disappointed. I fully expect my truck to give me at least 200,000 since everyone else that I know has there Toyotas going strong over that. The bodies will rust out before you have any major problems. Go for it.

Muddy have you used the Eglass rods from Cabelas?
Thanks for an honest answer. I'm assuming there a two piece casting rod because they didn't hit me with any extra shipping charges.

Muddy have you used the Eglass rods from Cabelas?
Thoughts? Picked one up for 14.99 on sale. I already have a 6'6" Shimano rod for cranking but I wanted a 7 footer for when I fish this one particular spot. Obviously I didn't want to spend a ton of money on a glass rod for cranking on one fishing pond.

Line conditioning questions
It was pretty close to an 1/8 but I did remove some just to be sure. Probably didn't help that I spooled up 15 minutes before we fished. ;D
-
Line conditioning questions
I threw some on all my reels last night and my sons spinning reel as well. Last night he had a lot of problems with 6lb Yozuri Ultra Soft springing off the spool (yes I put the line on correctly and tight). This stuff is very nice and like others have said....it's not sticky at all. Can't wait to see the results this weekend.

fat ika on spinning or baitcasting gear?? how do you guys fish it??
Spinning gear 8 lb test line 4/0 Gammy or Owner EWG hook Rig it backwards and fish it with short hops like a jig and let it flutter back down. Also when I first cast it I let it sit for maybe 20 seconds before I start my short hops. I think most of my hits last year came on the initial fall though so be ready to set that hook.

My new Revo s!
I just started this year but its the same size as a Citica 100dsv pretty much. I like it. The Revo S is larger than the Shimano 100's. That is why I said pretty much. There not that much bigger when just looking at them.

WHat's WRONG WITH THE WORLD?
My son is in third grade and DEFINATELY knows the difference between real and fake. People need to stop with the excuses in this country. Parents need to stop being selfish,partying, and neglecting there kids and point them in the right directions in life. I agree with the spanking comment. I spanked my boy a couple years back and Protective Services came to my house. Told them the truth. I only have spanked my kid a couple times in his life. There is a reason why he behaves most of the time lol. Putting them in a chair for 10 minutes or grounding them from video games isn't going to do any good. There is a difference between spanking and pounding your kid. If your throwing your kid around everyday than yes that's not going to help either. Christ said it best.....Love others as you love yourself.

This is going to far ( Just Got To Vent )
One of my friends just lost both his legs in a roadside bomb right before Easter. He is back in the states now recovering but they still don't know the extent of brain damage. His wife is due to have there second child next week. The reason I say this is because there are people that were protesting this young troops journal pages and local news stories online. You think people would have a heart during times like this.....but there selfish and go off to puff themselves up. It's darn right rude and disrespectfull if you ask me. Glad to see things went well.
