First time muddin'
Sam, a cop drove by and gave us a thumbs up. I don't think our luck will ways be that good. We were in the back of a neighborhood on an abandoned lot, so it wasn't a big deal.

First time muddin'
It definitely wasn't slow. Just a big lot of mud, and I just gunned it the whole time. It was a hell of a time. Can't wait till I have a truck.

First time muddin'
You know you're under-equiped when the splash you make in a puddle is higher than the car. It was alot more fun than I thought it would be!

First time muddin'
70 and windy here. This actually started as a joke. I just really wanted to get it stuck, but it turned out to be really good in the mud... considering it's a Honda Accord.

First time muddin'
I took my Accord muddin' today with some of my buddies. It was my first time doing it, and it will definitely happen again. I know that a sedan isn't meant for this, but it held up surprisingly well. Never sniffed getting stuck. This is probably a "teen testosterone" kind of thing, but it was a blast.

How do you thread heavier braid through tungsten with inserts?
Pull the inserts out.
-
Please advise on my gear
6'6 or 7' MH or H, fast action for contact baits. 6'6 or 7' M or MH, mod-fast action for treble hooks.

Tying a leader to braided line
All Braids are NOT noisey, just some of them. Daiwa Samurai Braid is almost slient. PowerPro and several others sound like a saw moving through the guides, I can only imagine what its doing to the guides. Nothing. I bought a Curado from David P and it came with Samurai. I took it off yeasterday and put 50# PowerPro on instead. The Samurai was just too soft and felt like fabric.

First time out in 2011
Well hell I can see why you didn't get out...the deer in your avatar is a BEAST. Nice fish.

braided line colour loss?
I totally agree with Francho. It just makes your combo so much more sensitive, and you get no-doubt hooksets, every time.

At Walmart???
Please God let them carry Rage Tails.

Tying a leader to braided line
Albright Special is easy to tie and very small profile.

Wanting a new reel. Narrowed it down....
The Power Knobs are so comfortable. I don't even want to use my Citica anymore... Plus the Curado is so noticeably better than any reel I've fished it puts the others to shame.

If you had $100.00 to spend on baits
I just stocked up on Craws. Like REALLY stocked up. I also got some Shads, Roosters, and two bags of Hawgs. Those Hawgs are going to be big for me this year I believe. Now all I need to get is a couple packs of a bait that will remain unnamed except to a select few. I think I'm good for a while. Or at least a month. ;D

Rage Tails, Spro frogs, and jigs.

Cumara Reaction Series
Yeah it is. I'm using mine to throw 1/4 oz. t-rigs and jigs up to 1/2 oz. I just want a longer and more powerful Cumara for flipping.
-
Cumara Reaction Series
Ah, if they're for reaction baits (which would make sense), I'll just pay FULL PRICE and get a Dobyns. Grrr. I can get a real good deal on Shimano products now. Wish they made a 7'6 HF in the original Cumara line.
-
what do you like in a frog rod
7'3 +, Heavy power, Extra-Fast action. I use that for everything including open-water walking of the frog. PS- Sounds like you need a Mossberg.
-
Sweeettt I love ultralight!
I caught a 5 last year on a 5'6 Light and 4# Trilene. Midday on a beetle spin. Great fight, took about two minutes to land. I want to do it more this year. I'll probably get some small circle hooks and throw Zoom Finesse Worms when I just feel like slayin' fish all day. Definitely tests your angling skills.

Flipping/Punching setup
Scratch my first post, I'm gonna get a Champion 765/Premier/65# PowerPro

Flipping/Punching setup
Leverage.

Cumara Reaction Series
Just wondering if anyone has fished these, specifically the 7'11 MHXF or Fast. I want to get one for light flipping and pitching, up to 1/2 oz. Just wanted to make sure it's not a parabolic crank rod, even though it is the "Reaction" series, LOL.
-
Flipping/Punching setup
I'm probably going to get a 7'11 MHXF Cumara for flipping/pitching, with a Curado or Chronarch and 50#-65# PowerPro. That will mostly be for flipping plastics and jigs in hard and soft cover, but I imagine it will be a very versitile rod as well.
-
Compre and Claurus
I have, and really regret it..LOL Amazing rod. I love mine.

New PB - 9.06 LMB on a Chatterbait / UPDATE - 6.32lb Bonus Bass !
Haha good lord dude. You're using up all your luck now! You're not gonna catch much in the summer, LOL. I hope I can do something like that soon, I'm sure getting bored of "casting".
