Thanks for the advice!

What's a good size fluoro to spool on a BC, the heaviest jigs I use are 3/4oz (most are 1/2)? I would like to use the same setup for deep cranks, if possible.

By far the Power Pro 8! Have #40 and #30, love them both.

I just looked at that, hadn't paid close enough attention to the weather...let's just say...I'll be inside this weekend enjoying me kids! *Daydreaming about fishing*

@Sam: I did ok, out on the lake. Caught only a few. We didn't get there as early as we wanted to. Going back this Sunday.

Jig w/ Rage Tail Craw or Grub

Thanks, I'll let you know first thing how thing went.

@Sam:I'm finding this to more true than ever. The Chick has been a rough spot for me. I've only launched out Eagles' once/twice. Hopefully this fall season changes things for me.

I'm hitting the Chick Lake this weekend, I wanted to know will this still hold true for this time of the year? Never had any success out Eagles, looking to head out tackle it agian.

Endless: Since that day in Powhatan, I've been casting and flipping jigs, but more so swimming jigs w/ rage craw trailer. Swimming it slow, bumping the bottom and occassionally dropping it dead and letting it sit. Or I'll pop it off the bottom and sink and sit, before repeating. I prefer casting jigs over any other, for all applications. All I change is the size for depth. Still like the T-rig craws and white/chart spinnerbaits w/ double willow in the fall.

Welcome to BR! You'll find plenty of fishing here and near in Richmond, VA.

Ruined my chance to go smallie fishing on the James this weekend. With the predictable raising water after rain, I won't be fishing there for at least two weeks.

I haven't, but I down for any location.

What do you think about new PP 8 versus Sufix Performance? Is color fading and running huge with Sufix Performance, I know it's too early to determine that with the new PP 8, unless someone experienced it. Thinking of getting a hi-vis color...since I don't fish very clear water, so color shouldn't have an affect on catch rate.

Any thoughts on PP Super 8 Slick? Has anyone tried it?

Not concerned with collor fading. More so I want to spool the reel with quality braided line. What color does the Sufix 832 fades to...a lighter shade of green or is the color completely striped to white?

I have PP #20 on my spinning tackle, never any concerns of digging on it. I only narrowed it down to those two because they were the most mention on the site. I'm opened to other suggestions. @endless: I have a Citica 201e, under sure of the rod right now.

@Sam: Only one place I can think of....INNSBROOK(LAKE ROOTY)!

What do many of you recommend for first time use of braid on baitcaster? The setup primary use would be for pitching/flipping jigs and plastics. From reading other topics, higher diameter lines are recommended to reduce digging. But what's a better line; PowerPro (moss green or hi-vis yellow) or Sufix 832? And should I use #40 or #50 line?

I'm ready whenever and where ever. Any thoughts on where, what res.?

Where can I get them now!!!???

Thanks, I looked at a few of these rods online. No time table to when I want to get it on the water. I'm pretty content with the two spinning rods and one BC I'm using now. I know definitely by next spring...lol. Thinking about putting the reel on my current Carbonlite 6'6 MH rod with braid and put my carbonlite reel on a Carbonlite 6'6 Med rod for casting. Who knows...

Not sure yet, been looking online. I'm opening to suggestions on what rods anyone on here perfer.

The Citica 201d from s13john. Met up with him on Sunday. Can't wait to find a rod and use it.

I stayed with mono, just spooled some sulfix seige 14# and loving it. Just got another reel, a Shimano (should hear the excitement in my voice saying "shimano"), and highly considering spooling it with braid. After talking with s13john and hookingem out briery, I'm feeling a little more confident in trying braid on my second bc. Considering pairing it with a good rod for flipping/pitching.
