    Hello and Welcome! Mike
  4. Now that's the way to do it! Mike
  5. I haven't used the "new and improved" but whatever they did, it was certainly needed. I used the "old and unimproved" about a year ago, made 2 pitches with the 60lb and thought I spooled with a steel cable. Took it off and threw it away. Mike
  6. 12# Yo-Zuri for chatterbaits and spinnerbait's on a 7' 2" mh/f Phenix M1 with a Curado I reel Mike
  7. Distance is only relevant to what you're thowing, with what equipment you're useing and how you're useing it. To answer the OP's question..IMHO The "average Joe" useing what he asked, I would think 20-30 yds on average with the wind at his back. An experienced user of a baitcaster with a medium action rod and a 1/2 oz weight should be able to get in the 30-40 yd range. My measured best useing a 7' Phenix X11 composite rod, with a Curado I spooled with 12# Yo Zuri, throwing a Bomber A with a 10 mph cross wind was 38 yds out 3 cast's. It was good enough for me Mike
  8. Check out the Frog Togg line. I know they're marketed and have a reputation more as a wet suit than an insulated, below zero, all pupose blizzard wear. But with a few layers of warm clothing underneath you can be just as warm and less bulky for less. Just an option. Mike

  12. Can't really add much to what was already said except that..I like your Mom! you're a lucky man. Mike

  14. I used the keeper one time and the weight kept pushing it down the line too much. Of course I only use a 1oz so maybe that was the problem. Mike

    Hello and Welcome! Mike
  16. What's the advantage of useing these instead of a pegged bullet weight of the same weight?Seems these would get hung up more if swimming through grass, or are you useing these in open water. Just wondering Mike
  17. Palomar for braid, SDJ for eveything else. Mike
  18. I have a Quantum Smoke with the same specs and I use it for punching matt's or in heavy cover.. Mike
