I always use trailers, and never use trailer hooks (gasp!). But when you use these tips, you'll never need trailer hooks:

Yup, I know. It's a known bug. However it's been difficult to nail down the cause. Still working on it...

Wellcomb a bored! Weir glad your hear.

^^ This ^^ You must have a balanced outfit for finesse crankbaits, which have small, thin-wired hooks. That dictates using balanced gear that "gives" during the fight. This means: A reel that has a smooth drag (doesn't "catch" or vary - just smooth and steady at all settings) A medium power, moderate action rod that bends and flexes during the fight, thus absorbing the violent pulls and runs from an angry fish. A line that's sensitive, yet can stretch to absorb head shakes at the source - where the bait is. Braid doesn't stretch, which eliminates it from contention here. Merely backing off on the drag is an attempt to compensate what the rest of the gear is lacking. Which means it won't perform the way you need it to when that PB is on the other end of the line. Stop compensating, and set up your equipment the right way for better results.

LAST DAY! There's a big sale going on now for all branded apparel for Booyah, Yum, Normark, Rebel, Bandit, Smithwick, and more! Quantities are very limited, so jump on this now before they run out of your size! Go there now! This shirt looks better than it shows on their website, plus it's very comfortable because it's a performance tee.

I'd go straight fluoro. The knot is just another point of failure. I was crankbait fishing just a few weeks ago gear I borrowed from a buddy, and he used a leader. A few casts later, I did the 400 yard cast with his brand new crankbait. Yup, the knot failed. He acknowledged it was his fault, because he tied the knot. But it's just another reason (among many) that I never use leaders.

I'm a big fan of mine. Especially the Bed Rug! Of course, you don't need a cap to have a bed rug, because it's designed for outdoor use. But man, it sure makes crawling around on your knees a whole lot more comfortable. Note I have the LED rope lights on the ceiling too. They really light up the interior very well. Perfect for early morning, pre-tournament loading/unloading.

Ok, this is pretty good deal. Surprised that nobody has said anything yet. Are you trying to keep it to yourself?

I guess we just have to agree to disagree then. You can't use the Fuji if you have motor issues like from a stroke, like you can with the RTD, and it's certainly not as easy nor as fast. But to each his own.

Kinda like comparing a bicycle to a Harley.

You may have seen me demonstrate this last summer at ICAST if you follow our Facebook page. This is makes stringing your favorite rod a breeze - especially for those of us that need reading glasses, or have limited motor skills. I was pretty jazzed about it then, and now.... I'm happy to announce the Erupt Fishing RTD is available for pre-order now at www.eruptfishing.com!! Order before December 10th to make sure you have this revolutionary new product before Christmas. Quantities are very limited, so act fast. This is a great stocking stuffer! http://www.eruptfishing.com/

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

That's awesome! Glad to help.
