curado 200 e7 problem
my curado seems to be having a hard time when pressing the thumb bar. its been getting increasingly harder to press down. it will go for awhile with little problem then all of a sudden i have to press quite hard to cast then sometimes it will stay down and loose and floppy after a cast and i have to lift it and it clicks in ive opened it up and cant find anything broken or damaged any ideas???? last thing is when realling you can hear the gears inside ?

Problem with baitcaster breaking line
check your rod and real carefully. i use 30 and 40 pd power pro almost exclusively and have put it through the ringer. i would say like others either you got a bad roll or you have some kind of nick or crack that is coming up during the violent flex of a cast. had it happen before like ta drive me crazy before i figured it out

What do you think this boat is worth?
is he paying for materials ? im in the same line of work and have got some good deals that way the question is if you want a better rig when do you see being able to pay that price for a rig vs just spending your time for it ? often times the barter works better than using cash hat may be needed for other things

hollow body frog mods
well ive thought for awhile frogs might be a lil better with stiffer legs like an actual frog so here's what i came up with i took one old frog with no rubber left and got some skirt material and braided it then tied it into a not with a small flared section for the feet i also did the same with a new frog and added jig callors instead of a knot they look nice in the water legs spread apart and flex when moved more like real legs another thing i did was add an extra jig collar on the hook which keeps the seal from sliding as much ill report how they do

on board charger question
the boat is on the trailer in the driveway its plugged into a grounded plug i cant really fill it on the gunnel rail but have 2 al brackets screwed to the rail and when i lean against those or put my arm skin on there i can fill a lil tingle i dont have anything grounded to the boat i thought the battery negative was the ground ? i dont fill it when its not plugged in the charger is screwed directly to the inside of an aluminum box could this maybe cause this should i put some rubber washers between the charger and boat to isolate it ?
