For the money, the technique specific All Star Instinct Rods are tough to beat, 60$ no matter which one....team that up with one of the New Abu Garcia Maxx reels ($50)......you got an economical, but great quality in your reel and rod I've got em but with the Revo and they are awesome, but the Maxx is the newer and more affordable low-profile version....

I've been using this stuff for a little while now, but really just want to know whats everyone's ratio of flouro to mono now, and how many times a year do you guys change the line also if you had problems in cold water, as I have broke off fish/lures from abrasions, the stuff just didn't seem to hold up.....and if anyone has tried the new Trilene, as Ive used XPS and Berkley Vanish..... Anything else on the stuff I'm interested Thanks in Advance.....

has anyone caught bass on em yet?.....how does the finish hold up?

Hey has anyone tried Oakley? I know they are around $225....I notice KVD wearin em....
