This is awesome. And no matter how crazy people think this is, it will never top the Zebco on the Steez rod.

I agree with J Francho, BigRickRolled and K_Mac. I don't think I would call switching brands, selling out.

Wow. Just wow. I always look forward to your posts in this section. Good job.

The video is just crazy. As fourbizz said, it was part of the delta so I have no problem with it. The rest of the contestants could have tried to get up in there too. I have heard of people in tiny little club tourneys that would tear the hell out of their boats to get back in a cove blocked by a fallen tree. I don't really see how this is any different. They had to have a lot of confidence in this spot for sure. It took them forever to get in and they had to be out before low tide.

When fishing I hold three fingers in front of the trigger and leave my pinky finger behind the trigger. When casting, I leave my index in front of the trigger and move everything else behind.

I would say the Curado is a better value.

With all the new stuff on the market this year, this thread could really be revamped. As is, it is still quality information for anyone interested.

I don't think you will be disappointed with a Citica. And 12 lb. line is fine for Senko baits.

Its gotta feel good to catch a monster on your own design. I am glad that fire didn't ruin your night.

PM sent. Thank you for the opportunity.

It is deceptively easy. I know what you mean. It seems to work best with heavier lines. I tired it with some 10 lb. mono and it kept breaking off at the knot after a considerable amount of pressure. I then tied the palomar with the line and it was much harder to break. 15 lb. P-line CX Premium was unbreakable for me using this knot though.

Fantastic video!

Another Kentucky guy here. I primarily fish Yatesville lake. Good to hear from you all.

That sounds like an awesome trip. Those pictures are amazing. Thanks for sharing.

This thread makes me want to go carp fishing real bad. The only success I have had with carp have been with vegetables. I got a hold of an absolute monster years ago while using zucchini. Corn works well too.

Whoa. That is ridiculously simple. I am going to go try this for myself.

Buckethead is the awesome. The dude has no set style.

I hate catching bluegill.

I think he is magic.

I enjoy me some split grip. I really don't buy into the "it completely enhances your rods performance" argument but I do think it looks awesome.

Dude, you need to buy a Powell cranking rod so I can see if I want one.

Thanks snoopy2. I have no idea what I will eventually settle on. I was mostly asking about the Loomis because I can get it at a great price. I have no idea what I will eventually end up with though. There are a ton of options out there and I don't have the slightest clue where to really start.
