Heading down Orlando with the family in late March and was looking to do a guided trip here. I am an experienced angler but with the family we will opt for shiners. Seeing any recommendations of guide services and one thing that will narrow it down and might even be a negative is, they would need to be able to accommodate 4 people. thanks

Just seeing if anyone knows of or can recommend a community to rent a property for vacation that offers or has bass fishing on-site and it has no restrictions.

At a local dicks sporting goods I was looking at a Stradic fl 2500, when I looked inside the reel I noticed felt/fuzz(assume felt was drag washer) on the reels shaft. Also some fuzz on top if ur looking down into the top(if the top is removed) is this bad or a quick fix as I’m able to get a pretty decent discount off it.

Taking the family to Disney in mid-May and was wondering guides and best route to go. looking for a 4-5 hr trip and was tossing back and forth between bass fishing or a saltwater trip. my boys are 10 and 12 and we fish regularly off our boat for bass, but they are obviously still beginners and learning. any recommendations for a type of trip that will give them a great memory. we are staying in the Disney area but have transportation and will be willing to travel Thanks

Have 2 Denali rosewood shakyhead rods, 1 Abu Garcia fantasista regista 7ft med fast, and will be getting a zodias or Denali lithium dropshot rod

So I handled all and honestly thought the ballistic lt felt best, Stradic fl was smooth and surprisingly the lew custom pro speed spin felt good. It was heaviest but smooth and felt very tough. My buddy who fished numerous trails as a co angler and fishes a ton all up the east coast has 3 years with the lews and says no issues smooth drag and impressed for $130. So I seem to between those 3 all pretty different lol

So after some handling I really liked the vanford, ballistic lt, stradic fl and a sleeper is the lews custom pro speed spool

Just sold my older ci4’s that had some years on them and only negative was the shallow spool. Gonna use for bass fishing 1/8-1/2oz weight and price range $150-$300 what should I be looking at. So far I have handled the revo s, Daiwa tatula, shimano vanford. Tatula felt cheap and hand decent wobble, revo x felt solid and vanford felt the best. I still need to locate and handle Daiwa ballistic, lews custom speed spool spin, Daiwa fuego(a lot of good reviews) and Stradic do. I am looking for 3 reels to use for shaky heads, drop shots, wacky rig, Ned rigs. Any opinions or recommendations to try

Taking a long shot to see if anyone has any experiences or opinions regarding the Douglas xmatrix 6103xf or the LRS 6103xf verse the daisy tatula elite ags Brent ehrler spinning rod

Yea I seen that a lot of there staff is up north. The rod itself felt nice the xmatrix definitely felt better then the ldr not sure if performance is $100 more. Looking for a dropshot rod and others I’m considering is Sierra or champion 702s or the tatula elite ehrler edition

Funny I’m researching the same, was at a local shop and was handling there models. They felt nice not sure how they compare verse rods in there pricevranges

excellent. glad to hear i have the right action for those techniques. Thank you guys for replying

Just purchased the Avid 7'MH/F which will be used for Pitching soft plastics and jigs and some football jig use. weights from 1/4oz-3/4oz. my question is should i have gotten the 7'MH/xf for those baits

Wondering everyones opinions on these reels. Are they pretty much all comparable or does one stand out in performace. They are all within $20 bucks of each other currently.

These are the two set-ups i am currently looking at; 1. Dobyn Savvy 702 ml with a Soron Stx20 2. Crucial 7'2 ml with a Stradic fi2500 Does anyone have any first hand experience with these items. They will be mainly used for shaky heads and drop-shotting
