I have an 09 SX. Its been an excellent reel. Initially, I kept the brakes up around 8. Now they're down around 3 or 4. The spool tensioner is more important for me. Just my opinion. The reel took a little getting used to but once you get a feel for it, its incredibly solid.

That, and POS event....

The crazy legs. If I want to tone it down, I pinch the feeler things off.

The Gambler Loco Lizard is a fatty. It has a huge profile. http://www.***.com/Gambler_Loco_Lizard_7_6pk/descpage-GLL.html

I was thinking this as well. I havent had a chance to throw the bait I have with the sure set hooks yet but it does look like it has the potential to bend easy. I might just swap them out to avoid finding out the hard way.

Cant beat the Sluggo

That perch color is excellent. Great work.

Last season is was the Bomber 4A in threadfin shad. This season, Im going to give the XCalibur squarebill a workout.

Great job! We almost have soft water here. I really cant wait much longer.

Wow. That thing is ridiculous.

Parasite weights aren't a bad option

Thanks for sharing!

Good choices. A swim jig may not be a bad addition, especially if that area is getting beat up and the fish are getting spooked by a bunch spinnerbaits clanging around.

Great news! Congratulations! I hope you're ready to spend the better parts of your days tying jigs.

Fishing on the Edge. Its a great read and very informative.
