Jigs, jigs, jigs, but what size?
The trailer and the weight of the jig will determine your fall rate. I usually fish a 1/2 oz keitech arky head with a ragetail craw or baby craw trailer. The keitech jig head is made of tungsten so it's a smaller profile. i generally fish the arky head in every situation except rocks.

seaguar red label, mistake??
just because it's made from the same place doesn't mean it's the same formula. hostess may use the same factory for twinkies and ho-hos but the end product is different.

What is the best piece of fishing advice you have recieved here?
it's about how you present the lure, you don't see chefs lobbing steaks in the air crashing down on our plates they're gently set down in front of us.

your best big fish tip in 3 words or less.
jig and pig use your head "better bring beer" is actually painted on the front of one of the local piers you can only see it on a boat, the people standing on the pier are oblivious to it lol. ;D

Zillion (reel) owners chime in!
Just wondering what rod you guys like to use this reel with? I tried it on a Zillion rod last night and wasn't too thrilled with how it fit in my hands.

Ever had a combo that just "felt right"?
to me the steez combo feels way better than the zillion combo. the zillion reel's profile is a bit higher and it doesn't sit the same on the rod.

Drop shot plastics
What style and colors do you use of Roboworms? I am interested in picking some up. I found their website and the worms look pretty good. I like the ribs sticking out of the sides. Thanks i exclusively used this one last season in a variety of colors. http://www.***.com/Roboworm_Straight_Tail_Worms/descpage-RW45ST.html my personal favorite color is "morning dawn chartreuse" aka pink with a chart. tail. but they all work the same, i just like the pink and green. ;D

Who do you go to for reel repair?
I just got a Daiwa TD-ito 103m (zillion) that needs a complete rebuild. One of the springs came loose and caused a few gears to get chewed up. The previous owner took it apart and now there might be a few things missing. I'm wondering if theres anyone or any place out there that could rebuild it with a zillion high speed gear set, supertune and clean it for me? I've emailed the alabama reel medic but didn't get a reply, also tried to send one to D.R. but the e-mail form oh his site doesn't work at the moment. :
