Couple years back I had a very mild case of Shingles across my left chest under peck to the back. Yeah. Even a mild case was bad enough. I was fortunate to catch it early and had two bouts of the pill that limited its reach, and was helped immensely by Gabapentin which took the edge off of the electrical fire-like itching. Good luck and recovery quickly, @Ski!

I've been happy with a 6'6" ML Carbonlite from BPS. Not a newer one, but paired with a Chronarch 50, I use for all finesse stuff. Spinning is my go-to, tho.

Heh. Welcome back!

Welcome aboard! I do not use a swivel between braid and leader. I always use a knot. I would think a swivel would interfere with going through the guides and cause damage to the guides, and in turn to your line. Not worth losing a fish over, IMO.

Welcome aboard, Ben!

Some great box styles mentioned. My Kast Kings arrived today, pretty nice, impressive latching mech. Thicker plastic mean slightly less space than my BPS boxes (3600s). I would say for my Ned baits and term gear, one less "square". Terminal tackle - I almost feel the need to move to a 3700 size, but not gonna pull the trigger just yet. Want to see how these perform for my style out on the H20. Edit- Pic added, lighting not great. Open area not yet filled. Also, wondering how the Elastec plastic will behave with the more rigid plastic of the Kast King. The softer BPS kit did warp, tho I would say that was from sun and such as opposed to the Elastec plastics in the kit.

Funny you should post this an hour ago. Earlier today I purchased a 2 box set of the 3600 size off Amazon. Should be here tomorrow. Plan on making one my terminal box, the other my Ned rig box...or cranks. Changing over from the BPS boxes you get on sale often. Those are warping now. Was considering the Plano Edge, but the $$ made me balk, then the search showed the Kast King and I watched some reviews and decided to pull the trigger. $22 for 2.

Really good vid, @Glenn!

Those quotes got me, too. Save the juicy stuff for the end of the article so as not to prejudice us against him.

Very cool tech, and sweet looks, too.

The NFL LOVES this romance. And they'll love a Chiefs SB victory even more! Emphasis mine. https://qz.com/how-much-money-taylor-swift-has-made-the-kansas-city-ch-1851209178 "Swift’s relationship with Kelce and her appearances at Chiefs games has generated $331.5 million in equivalent brand value for the Chiefs and the NFL, according to an analysis the group shared with Quartz."

I think you got a solid one in Eric Washington. Not really happy to see him go, but that's the NFL and he deserves to move up in the ranks. Good luck.

Welcome, Terry and Team! Best bass forum on the internet!

May I humbly suggest SPEEDY acquisitions. Guys who can put the fear into opposing defenses. Guys who can catch, in stride, 80 yard rockets launched from Josh's arm.

They're looking really good thus far. Better than the Ravens. Man, the Bills would have beaten that Ravens team....20/20 woulda coulda....🙄
