bass vision
I was told that the last two colors a bass could see as the water got deeper was purple and blue. Well I thought it was more black or green. As the water gets deeper what are the last colors a bass can see? Is there any way to prove this?

Daiwa Exceler 7.1 vs Shamano Catica
I have 2 exelers and I would recommend them to anyone. I love them. And I'm no shimano fan by any means, but I think the citica is probably your best bet.

Can't believe I'm saying this but...
I also read somewhere that the one with all of the sections, the pointer or live pointer. Whatever, the end of it after a few fish, the wire or whatever it is that gives them action and holds them together messes up and it doesnt swim true. That seems kinda lame for a $15-$20 jerkbait.

One click away BPS extreme
Agreed. I've heard good things about the Extremes and I'd say at their sale price they are a good value, but at $80 you have a a few options that would offer better performance, durability, and fishing pleasure for only a little more money. What else is good at $80 and let me just say I do not trust EBAY or anything else like it.

MegaStrike For The Win!
I really do believe MegaStrike was the final touch. I have never before been 100 percent sure when it comes to any scent, in fact until this season, and I have been fishing for bass for over 20 years, I was only 50 percent sure at best that adding scent would help. I mean I have had days where adding scent I caught fish, but was it the scent that caused them to strike? On this day I know for sure in my mind, that it was the final factor. They just would not take the frog no matter how I worked it until I added MegaStrike and with that I am 100 percent sold on MegaStrike. Honestly I have never had confidence in any scent they way I do with some lures. line, rod's, reels and so forth and I have tried many many brands of scent over the years. Edge Hot Sauce Gel I did/do have some confidence in, that being that the bass will hit it, but I have never seen anything like this, in fact I have seen followers before and have juiced before under those situations, but I have never seen juicing (as I call it) actually really make that big of a difference until now. It may have helped in the past, but on this day I know it more then just helped. Wow man, you seem pretty pumped. Maybe you should order some more to get your fix. ;D

Bass Fishing Rules
I honestly have never heard of a season for bass. Luckily we can fish for them year round

Carrot Stix Deal
I have yet to use a rod in that price range that can equal the sensitivity. IMO you can honestly feel EVERYTHING. Try one at night with a big thumpin colorado blade. woooooo!!!! you can feel every blade of grass it seems. I also heard AIRRUS makes a killer sensitive rod.

Sounding off on the Citica 200E
It's really not fair for me to vote on this poll, I am not a Shimano person. But I have nothing negative to say about them. As a matter of fact I still have a Shimano crestfire from when I was young and it still works. It was my fresh and salt reel. Also my first baitcaster ever was a Shimano SG, and I loved it. Now I'm all about ABU and Daiwa.

One click away BPS extreme
in the flea market. For a difference of only $15 (and that's only if your price included shipping) It would be nice and I appreciate it but I am just not a shimano guy,also I need to order some shad raps and more 12" sqirmin super worms from BPS.

One click away BPS extreme
Well I'm one mouse click from buying my first BPS reel. I am getting the extreme with the flippin switch. I just had to hear it. AM I MAKING A MISTAKE BY BUYING THIS REEL? It's only $80 but still that's a lot of lures and plastics i could buy. YES or NO :-?

Super Silver Thread Reviews
As long as it has good strength. That is what is important to me. I spray Blakemores reel magic on my line while spooling and it wipes out line memory.

rage tail toad
That's what that 7:1 gear ratio on that reel is for. buzz them accross the top of the water.

rained out
When I have the itch and can't go fishing I usually go in the garage or one of my bigger rooms, set up targets(cups or plant pots) and practice pitchin and flippin. It never hurts to practice accuracy.

i know i know
I love Daiwa and Revos. But if I had to choose I would go with a REVO SX our wal-mart here sales them for $149. If you sweet talk the nice lady at Abu Garcia you can still get the Wiley X glasses for free.

Working the grass
Is there a limit to how many times you can shake it before people start questioning you? 8-) after 3 shakes you are just playing with it.

Why did they kill the fish?
