Great man i always read your posts and i am happy for you keep it up, life gets better!

That made my day!

Nice fish i'll be sending back reports next time i go to sparrow for some hardcore bassin!

Nice fish man!

I have never used a flouro leader while using braid and still catch fish along with others who use braid without a lead i don't believe in that stuff.

WOW that is an amazing piece of art!

Yeah, I know - I almost didn't post, but I figure all the other Carrot posts have been so positive, might as well get a counterpoint right? : Honestly though, I stand by what I said, and again, the Carrot is a nice rod. IMO, the Crucial is nicer Skillet - you're in for a treat with the Crucial. Now I haven't tried all the $140 rods out there, but I can't imagine for the price it gets any better than a Crucial. I agree I have an avid a carrot boyd duckett and st.croix legend elite bait casting rods and my 2 crucial i like just as much as them. Same goes for spinning rods

Pfft i wish i'd get sponsored especially at that age.

Thats pretty sweet grats to you, one day ill have to try tourney fishing out.

Try to throw baits the fish haven't seen and try to get reaction strikes. my 2cents

Give us a budget The sweet spot is the 100+ area.

G- blanks use diffrent blanks theres no such thing a g blanks blanks.

Mad props to you guys for helping them because if you flipped over your canoe wouldn't you want help.

What? ;D

Theres no hopefully you cant rely on anyone but yourself to get you where you want to be.

Starting off with a better reel would have helped try using a heavier weight and make short casts while you train your thumb.

Im 14 and 5' 9 ive been using 7' rods since i was 11. If you have a balanced rod no problems.

crankbaits... Or jerkbaits, possibly spinnerbaits, deep crank baits, large treble hooked lures.
