Thanks ReelMech
Got my reels back real quick and they were awsome. I cant wait to take them out and use them. Once I get some more cash I've got some more for you. Thanks for the fast and great service. I really like how you sent me an email letting me know when you got them and when you shipped them back. Thanks again for the great service

temp/barometer guage.
I'm looking for one of these to carry with me. I want to start keeping more detailed notes. Well actual notes on my fishing expeditions. I dont want one that hooks to a boat because I dont always fish out of one or the same one. My ? is does anyone make a decent one for pretty cheap.

Work needed
Man that sucks LBH. I picked up a part time job for awhile at a fishing/hunting store. If you come to this area I've got a some extra space in my house. Just bring your fishing stuff. Nothing fancy at all but ist a roof over my head.

First Rod Build Suggestions ........
THis is odd, my buddy and I talked about this just the other day. Same exact rod. I'd go straight with the IMX. Just before doing anything make sure it all fits right and is done properly the way you like it. Remember I dont know anything about building rods except reading posts. But thats what my opinion is.

Hey ReelMech......
I got some with him right now. I'm afraid once I get them back I'm going to have to send the rest of them to him. I should have them back pretty soon he finished them up today. I cant wait to get them back and take them for a spin.

a ridiculous jig question
I mostly put them on with the completely flat part down. Reason is because of the way I typically rig them. It really doesnt matter I dont think

Some Jig Rod Input guys???
Yup, I look at a purchase like this as an investment. Its not something you buy everyday unless your Raul. IMO a GLX is something that you will have to take care of. Its not a knock around rod. If your good to it it will be good to you. This is how I look at purchases like this. If I buy quality once I dont have to rebuy things over and over. I dont belive in upgrading in most aspects. I just save up and buy it the first time around. Cheaper in the long run.

Water or Wine
now I know why people say I'm full of poop. I drink about a gallon of water a day. I'm switching to budweiser.

Stradic and Yo Zuri line=problems? (w/ pics now)
couple things I see. 1. if the line is just falling off in chunks at a time you have too much line on the spool. Which it does look like from the pic 2. If you have a boat, cut the lure off and let about 50-75 yds drag behind the boat (at idle) in the water. This will remove all the twists in the line. Dont let it get caught in the motor. This will fix all your problems 3. Dont crank the handle to close the bail. Use your hand to flip it over and pull the line tight before reeling. I believe every time you crank the bail closed its like 1/2-1 twist. Over time it will build and loop on you. Follow those 3 steps and you shouldnt have a problem.

Why do co. use junkie treble hooks?
its from cost. Most fishermen wont spend over $5 for a lure. You have to keep the cost down some how and hooks are one of the easiest. I bought a 20 dollar split ring plier to change these things out. I just take a side cutter and cut the split ring off and trash the whole deal. Replace with good split ring and hook.

Pitching & Flipping Rig - Advice needed
My pitching set up is a 7ft 1" heavy rod with a 6.3 reel. Works really good. It works pretty good for flippin but when I flip heavier cover I like a stiffer rod or 7'6".

Yo-zuri 8lb and jerkbaits
Well, you cursed me on the no backlash post. ;D 1st cast of the day. Blamo Jig rod reel gonners. I had a CA condor nest in the thing. Not a little birds nest. I caught one dink 12" long off a 1/2oz blk blue jig with rattles and a 2" blue chart trailer. Its ugly but works good. I threw everything even the kitchen sink at them. I did find 51 deg water and that is where the dink came from. 2 fish were weighed in first place a 4lber took first and big bass second was a 3lber. First trip 0 fish Second 1 fish Third Predicting 2 fish LOL
-
Dropshot Hook Keep
I put the hook in my hook holder on the side of the rod. I have a rubberband on the but of my rod that holds the weight. Works great.
-
Yo-zuri 8lb and jerkbaits
Just an update. I tried the 8lb yozuri on my jerkbait rod. Worked great. no backlashes or break offs. Give it 2 thumbs up

Jig and toad rod

Search and Follow-up Baits
Yep, it sure is. I guess I'm a cheater. I bet you are too. ;D I've done this 3x in a row on one fish before I caught the fish. I love fishing clear water with a senko.
-
Search and Follow-up Baits
#1 follow up bait would be a senko. Why, it can double as a follow up for the previous cast. Not many lures will imo.
