  1. Not really. It's about the same level as without because it's fixed and up turned. I've used them with great success.
  2. They've only sold like 1500 of them. I've seen two in person. It a big fan of the front looks, but on paper it's super capable.
  3. I'm sure it's quality considering this is a $95k vehicle.
  4. I would be using it to tow a boat.
  5. Looking hard at the Rivian.
  6. You'll need to be able to lift half of it over your head.
  7. Pretty hard to take that slack out of the line without pulling the senko.
  8. Braid to mono or fluoro leader has zero sensitivity on a slack line, which is almost always the case with a senko.
  9. 2010 GMC Sierra 1500 extended cab. I can fit 8' rods no problem in the passenger front seat with it slightly reclined. There's even room for someone to sit there if they don't mind the reduced footwell space.
  10. Might be time to upgrade to a graph w/ GPS?
  11. Well, you need to be able to see it because you won't really feel it on that setup like you would with straight fluorocarbon.

    Fresh means within 5 miles of the ocean. You aren't getting fresh in Kansas.
  13. I'm not sure what the performance means in the context of a reel. I mean it holds line, pays it out, reels it in. It's not pulling 1g on a skid pad.

    I didn't get it from oysters. I was working at a tropical fish importer and got some infected tank water in my mouth. I still eat oysters where they're fresh.
  15. So it dissolves in water. Doesn't sound ideal.
  16. I'm m willing to die on that hill for it. Standards man! And I know Catt will find this and give another history lesson.
  17. Gear ratio has zero to do with perceived smoothness. It could be a lot of things, but I'd start with a deep clean and rune from someone like DVT Mike.

    I've had vibrio, it sucks.
  19. I put the scent on the bait right before I fish it. No issues with softening or swelling.
  20. These are nice. They can also be used to make Jika rigs.
  21. Nope, no point in it. Mike Siebert makes them perfectly. Buy quality baits, and trimming isn't necessary.
  22. Nope. I fish baits straight from the package with no mods. I don't have time to fuss.
  23. Senkos are the sinkiest of the sinky baits.
