family guy

:-?i don't understand? are you upset that the tourny was cancelled?or are you mad at IKE?or are you just saying you had a good day fishing in the rain ?

worry about yourself,dont concern yourself with anyone but yourself.what a wonderfull philosophy/concept! so all you boaters out there dont start crying when the senko goes fling past your ears! gee my next tournament should be fun! ;D wow how dumb am i? here i thought it was about sportsmanship,two guys fishing having a good day on the water.boy do i feel stoopid now! thanks for imput.

Tectan premium plus,Very thin,Very strong!Gammakatsu G-Power, also Very thin, Very strong. these are by far IMHO the best mono/co-poymer lines i have used.

Has anyone tried the Daiwa Steez flourocarbon line? What about Yamamoto Sugoi dropshot flourocarbon? what has been the best flourocarbon line you have used for spinning reels? what brand has been good for you? i.e, easy to cast,good knots,ect. thanks,FG.

thanks for the advice guys,your right, it was a learning experiance all right, one that will hopefully never repeat itself.i just wanted to know if i was the only one that thought it was hinky or if it was just common practice.

you are fishing a tourny (co-ang) your boat is 10-12 feet from shore(12oclock) the boater is casting to the front towards the shore(10-11,oclock) your casting towards the shore(12-1clock),before your lure even starts to sink the boater hits the trolling motor to chase his lure and your lure starts to get draged through the water.the boaters lures stays where it is and the guy in the back has to reel and recast.this happend to me almost all day long.without sounding like a beeacth,what do you do/say?

As for reels the Daiwa Luvias 07,or the new Fuego,(200-300 range).as for rods. the Yamamoto line is worth looking into,i have a 7fter drop shot that i use for senkos,and DSing,small minnows as well.the Daiwa TD Tierra line i have two, only 70$ a piece i lovem! i use those for everything,have a medium and a medium lite.

i was thinking the same thing cause i am fishing the back of the boat(co-angler) and the motor kept getting in the way,so what i am going to do is get a Daiwa triforce shorty rod,it's only 3ft,so i should have no problem skipping now,their not much money at all 15.00 tops.

i always use a flouro/mono leader on braid,call it a shock absorber if you will,like the uni to uni knot,very strong,and if/when you get a snag it's easier to brake off the leader than the main line,cause braid always breaks more than what lb's it's rated,in my experiance anyway.

your only dropping two inchs,so you probly wont notice any differance at all,in casting distance.how much shorter or longer is the handle of the shimano?cause handle length was the only reason i dropped from a 7ft to a 6'6.i really didnt see that much of a differance in casting distance at all.but handle length made all the differance in my case.the handle of the 7ftr kept hitting me when working plastics.no problem now with the 6'6.
