  1. 2 favorite combos for lite stuff and plastics, both with 10# Cabelas ProLine Mono 1. Cabelas Fish Eagle II 6'6" Med/fast & BPS Extreme ETX05HB 2.Fenwick HMX 6'6" Med/Fast & Pflueger Trion LPNS no problems, any backlash is always my fault and it is minimal at this point That is an excellent tip from Gene, come to think about it I use more line hanging off the rod with lighter baits
  2. Yea but then you gotta deal with OLD LADY BLUE HAIR
  3. Hey Micro: Dodgeguy has it that the BPS and the Pflugers are made by the same folks, you may wanna ask him. He has never once given me bad info about either label, as I have used both. PS Something I noticed, mind you I am no expert. The brake setting and maitainance info for the Pflueger Supreme is the same word for word as the BPS Pro Qualifier, the recent gray one. They look identicl when you hold the info side by side.
  4. Do you prefer the tank type or the autmatic flush ones Mike? :
  5. The lakes in and around Harriman Park and the Resivoirs have good populations of both LMB and SMB. PM Mike D of Lunkerville and Dodgeguy, they are very knowledgable and can lead you to more information
  6. Hey Sharkbite call me. None of this is really important,except for the tackle afficinados. These guys buy stuff they do not ever use!They look at their stuff and make comparisons concerns weights as little as a grain, if you are not planning on going to that level, none of it is really important. It is just who makes the reel. The truth is most compaines put their names on products that they contract others to make for them , no big deal.
  7. So I guess that makes you the first BLUEISH preacher man
  8. OK I was wondering if it was because of possible problems with the reels themselves, I am a little slow on the uptake sometimes.Thanks ps If thats the case it is not something I would have interest in finding out
  9. I use a 6'6"Med/fast Cabelas Fish Eagle II, I agree with hookem, I would have trouble trhowing anything bigger than a Rapala DT16 with it, but I don't so it is not an issue for me. The fiberglass experiment is over cause I do better than OK with this,
  10. Prospect Park lake in Brooklyn Some 5lbsers pulled out this uear Catch and release and shore fishing only
  11. I am full of something, can't put it up here, family site and all that ;D
  12. Then how do you explain fish breath ?
  13. Why? If you like the product, what difference does it make? Just curious why there is always this discussion about house reels. I would really love to know, before I purchase any other BPS reels this coming spring. Thanks Dominick
  14. Absolutely but NO TOUNGE ACTION
  15. The 5.2:1 ratio would be used for deep cranking, the other is kind of a reel to use for more varied applications I would go with the Trion, if it is low profile, especially if it is Narrow Spool, either way i would go with the Trion GREAT REEL mook
  16. I would rather take advice based on years of experience from an older , very experienced rod builder like Reel Mechanic, who has been fishing and building rods longer than some of the posters here have been alive. This is not said with malice or to stir things up, it just makes more sense. Dave has given me a lot of sound tips and has always been truthful, based on years of experience. I prefer full grips, but I have very limited experience using a split grip so I am not qualified to give an opinion. EXPERIENCE not Opinions is what counts! PS And Yes ReelMech is aka ROD and REEL MOOK! :
  17. Can JIMZZE account for his where-abouts when this film was shot?

  20. Boggs was not on Chapionship teams much of his time, he was mostly with the Red Sox who did not win any rings while he was there. Keith Hernandez has won more consecutive gold gloves at first base than any other in NL history and it will take a miracle for him to get in. It is important that the Hall sticks to a high standard. 8-)
  21. About as long as they have been looking for JIMMY HOFFA! ;D
  22. Nice trip! Thanks for the pics 8-)
