I like the Owner Down Shot Hook for T-Rigging a DS. I use 1/0, 2/0, and 3/0 hooks, depending on the size of the bait. It's a light wire hook, so it just takes a wrist flick to set the hook. Works very well in the conditions you describe.

Nice! I did work on a few Pro Max 3600 reels. They were well built. Thanks for posting those, and the info.

While technically not forbidden, first time posting items for sale is often met with skepticism. Also, with your location in Italy, you might have a better time selling via local channels. We do have a few members from Italy, however. Please See the terms of use before posting:

I don't think I've ever seen a 1600. I've built a few 1500 and 2500 size, though. They are very capable at light stuff.

Nice fleet of Hobie kayaks!

A Personal Best (PB) is simply the largest bass you've caught, ever. You can't predict or will when you are going to catch a bigger bass, but time on the water, and learning to become a better fisherman almost always results in better size fish. Happy Birthday, and have a good time fishing.

Why are we making recommendations on a year old thread? The OP bought a boat. If there are new questions, start a new thread. Thank you.

^^^ Whole lotta truth in that post. It's amazing what a complete break down, degrease, clean, rebuild, and fresh lubricants can do for a reel.

My Stradic CI4 2500 takes up 34 IPT. Spinning reels have a larger circumference spool relative to a low pro baitcaster.

That's exactly what I would do, and exactly what I'd expect to find. Fun place!

Navionics, Google Earth, Dark Sky, TourneyX, Windy, and the Camera, are apps I use regularly.

Mark Croxton can probably fix the prop to better than new. Then you'd have a back up. I'd be wishing for a new LU as well. Good luck getting her back!

Fourscore and 12 years ago, someone fished in the rain.... I know of no set feeding time for bass. They are more active at dusk and dawn (crepuscular). Overcast days are my preference, but fish don't always read these forums, or follow the rules.

Living rubber skirts are great for dead sticking. They actually open up slowly, revealing a the trailer.

Looks like your using the Mat Daddy rod - one of my favorites! Really good job on this one!

Pretty cool!

Mike @Delaware Valley Tackle should be able to take care of you. http://www.delawarevalleytackle.com/

I've been fishing as long as I can remember. So, at least 45 years.

I'm actually not sure what company it is. I thought we opened the door to talk about thirteen. 13 one three

We're hiring. And we have a pond out back. Just saying, start brushing up on your Javascript skillz...
