Thanks - The Calcutta D's will need to be pried out of my cold dead hands. But there's a load of Limited Edition KVD Quantum Casting reels that will be looking for a good home after the holidays. Until then, lots of Ramen and PB & J for this guy. A-Jay

I vote that one indicator light itself has gone caput. A-Jay

Looking Hard at the Shimano Bantam MGL A Casting Reel ~ Might have been looking a little too hard . . . 😎 A-Jay

It's a Bait Monkey Christmas up in here ~ A-Jay

Hide your credit cards ! A-Jay

Is the position of the hook hanger behind the reel and down in the split grip effective when you hang a jerkbait there? Or perhaps you don't use it ? Seems like a PIA to me. A-Jay

I'm with @FrnkNsteen Med spinning is as high as I go. In my bass fishing, a MH spinner is a niche stick, most anything I'd use it for I'd rather throw on casting gear. If you need that then go for it. A-Jay

Sorry. My bad. A-Jay

And a Real Looker too ! Congrats. A-Jay

Pssst ~ Hey @Koz You might be trying to fix a problem . . . . . you don't actually have. Just saying . . . . Sounds like you need a puppy. A-Jay

@WaskaCrank12 I'll be looking to replace the AGM's I'm currently running in a year or two. So, still trying to read everything I can to decide which way to go. There's a lot to digest both the good, the bad & the ugly as far as reviews & comments are concerned. It's hard to know what the real deal is. And considering the cost of the newest models & the battery chargers that go with them, I'm still squarely on the fence. Also, there's at least some chance this will be the last set of batteries I ever buy; regardless of what they are. The boat monkey is a persistent and persuasive fiend. Good Luck with your decision. A-Jay

Sorry you had a bit of time but glad it's all good now. Thanks A-Jay

I'm confused. Seems there was some type of issue(s) with that battery as you posted in Oct. https://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/263301-need-some-help-with-new-lithium-battery/?do=findComment&comment=3107554 Has this been resolved ? A-Jay

Completed Workout Day 4 as scheduled. I got no complaints. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

Don't have a kayak but a canoe. Sometimes I stand (unit has a 40 inch beam), but sometimes I sit. The number one factor for me being effective with a jerkbait from a small craft and in a seated position . . . . IS THE BOAT NEEDS TO BE STATIONARY. So I ANCHOR. Otherwise the drift of the boat, however slight, jacks up 'the pause' sequence of the presentation and I get far fewer bites. Other than that, the seated jerkbait presentation is the same as standing, might be a little harder to get used to at first, but basically the same. I do prefer spinning gear but have done fine with casting gear as well. Good Luck. A-Jay

LOL ~ That was Big Fish Jeff First/Maiden Voyage across Lake Menderchuck in the Pro-V Bass. #bigeyes 😅 A-Jay

The days of Franks Sinatra & Bing Crosby Christmas music have long past. And some might feel like they are gone forever. Heard this one the other day #polaropposite https://youtu.be/D5zBF-zPXpU?feature=shared A-Jay

Thanks. I've had quite a bit of practice in some pretty sport conditions. Night time & zero visibility in fog is fun too. A-Jay

I have a couple of the spinning rods that are decent What's the all purpose rod ? A-Jay Spin E - Ehrler Spin B - Feider

It got our attention for sure ~ https://youtu.be/jYDqRk6ghyE?feature=shared A-Jay

Nice Rig ~ Over kill is simply a decent way of being Prepared. 😎 A-Jay

Black Rifle is most decent IMO. I really like the packaging ~ and the military discount #25% A-Jay

I don't drink anywhere near the Joe I used to. Retirement does that. But when I do, it's usually for effect and happens late afternoon. Also has to be a dark roast. I go over pour, so 1 cup at a time. I switch back & forth between these two. https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ A-Jay

After an extra off day, spent blasting another foot of snow away, I was back in the home gym for Workout Day 3. Despite the late afternoon time frame, I still felt pretty decent during this one. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

Yup. I will often build them on wire when fishing toothy critter in fested waters. A-Jay
