its amazing how many folks actually read your questions before they tell you what you need! i have been looking for a Floating worm for awhile and they difficult to find. from what i have found roboworm, strike king, powerbait shakey and gambler are your main choices. beyond their selection the japanese have some cool ones, they arent the size you are after but i did see a very big one that floats just cant remember the name, try google. if you really need them big, i would try a custom worm from a smaller company. you never know you could be onto something. ;D

my name is nick, i am in northwest ohio(defiance). there aren't many lakes around here so i usually go to indiana and hit the chain o'lakes. lots of ponds around here and one tiny lake(oxbow). i fish from a 03 nitro when i can find the time!

good to hear!

just picked one up at basspro for 70 bucks! i was turned off of baitcasters after a bad go with a blackmax. i was then told i needed to spend a little more to get quality and i would have a better time. well i went in to buy another spinning reel and walked out with this. anyone use one? i just got it spooled up but have not cast it yet.

just get some x-raps! they wont kill your wallet cuz you only need a couple colors and you are set! i use the green backs and black backed ones. these two produce more for me than any other jerkbait i have. ;D

i agree with thad. do a little homework, feedback, etc...ebay is sweet if you can use it properly. the best deal i ever got was 12 lucky crafts for $20. they werent even listed as lucky craft. the title just said fishing lures. ;D

i talked to eric directly and had my 701med in 3 days with just a phone call! maybe you should go up the ladder. i called e21golf and talked to the warranty mgr. himself. great communication and great response. not trying to rub this in, but i never settle for joe secretary. give me the guy that makes it happen! hope this helps!

the funny thing is...for every one person that bashes carrots, their are 10 that love them! as far as durability, i bang my stix around from vehicle to boat to cabin to the house with zero issues! the guides dont say fuji(nike,bmw,gucci, insert overpriced name here) but for some reason i have never heard anything bad, just that they are cheesy. doesnt st.croix have fuji? oh yeah the ones that fall out. does st.croix suck? i stepped on one of my stix and had it replaced with a phone call in 3 days! opinions are like... i'm not sayin, i'm just sayin... viva la stix!

boy if they are knock offs they got every detail spot on. i compared them to a few of my buddies and the best i can tell they are the real deal. even if they were knockoffs, 20 bucks is 20 bucks. i'd blow that on one lure.

i was the only bidder. they had 2 other auctions just like it with pointers and cranks! i was after the sammies but now wish i woulda bid on them all!!!

someone didnt know what they had! just picked up 12 lucky crafts for $20.00! they didnt even have them listed as lucky craft! the pics told a different story as i saw sammy written on the bottom of a few. upon further investigation(colors,sizes,etc...) i realized they were all lucky craft. 5 sammy, 3 gunfish, 2 g-splash, 1 waketail, 1 splashtail all in different sizes! they arrived today and none of them have been fished! woohoo! it pays to do your homework!

i have used both and there is a difference but not that much. if you were catching $100,000 fish(bassmasters) it might be worth the advantage of mono. fish what you have or are comfortable with.

i have both and believe it or not, there is a difference! mine are 20 and 30 sizes. i dont have any 10 size but the difference between the bigger ones is noticeable. my opinion is get the tour and you will never wonder what if. there is a reason the tours started out at $279.00! i would gladly trade my energy for a tour! the new pti-b's are awesome too. i just bought a catalyst20 and its crazy nice! on par with pti-a tours and its only got 8 bearings. so its not all in the bearings. hope this helps

i use spinning gear 90% i used 30#powerpro 100% of the time last year with 0 problems whatsoever!!! if visibility is a prob use a flouro leader. braid is the way to go! i am however going to try co-poly this year. just to see if it is all it is cracked up to be.

i too had one break through the mail and the one i wanted was backordered. instead of using that store i emailed e21 directly and had a new rod in 5 days. sean@e21fishing.com is who i dealt with. great guy, i told him my story and he said no prob just email me a pic of broken rod,action and power section. great experience. i now own 2 with more to come as soon as the wife says.
