Loomis
I have a BCR803 GLX and its easily the best rod I fished... EVER. Rods that are in the same class are also awesome so it depends on your point of view.

What is your favorite lure or softplastic that they no longer make?
Rebel Jointed in Gold with a Black back & white belly... Challenger makes one similar but I keep repainting and retuning my old one. It holds a special place in my pike box. A real Hula popper would be nice too. The new ones are shiza.

Lefty shimano cranking reel?
I have a Curado 201E7 which is great. For cranking I went with a Revo Winch. If you feel like stepping up to a Core you can get a 6.2:1 or a Curado CU51E in 6.4:1...

Fishing Backpack
Looking for a new backpack for my fishing gear. I have several plano boxes, tackle systems but really like the backback for my shore based activities... What's everyone use? Cabelas Pro Angler looks pretty good. TW also carries one... I read the TT review of the Lowpro Dryzone Rover but seems more towards photography than fishing. Thanks!

Best frog baits
Spro Bronzeye frogs (natural or black) or rage toad. My hookup percentage was much better with the toad but I had some youtube worthy strikes on the Spro.

St. Croix LegendXtreme
Same here but everything else with the rod is top notch. TT review was very favorable but for that price range it had better be extreme.

Would you like to look like this ???
Yeah the softball and fishing circuit is brutal for me...

polarized lenses
I have one pair of Oakley Gascans in black and a older pair of amber Costas. As stated the light conditions are key.

This was my primary interest. Again thanks for the tips and the vid. After looking around seems like you can't get the Karu chatterbait anymore? Bummer, looked pretty sweet.
