  8. Better? I wouldn't go that far, aluminum is strong yet its better at absorbing shock. Can't say the same for carbon fiber. Far as durable goes, I'd stick with aluminum over CF
  9. Great job on the biggun, and welcome to the site
  10. Way to go Bluebasser86's wife!
  11. I would say the same confused With all the choices the weight and line weight rating can narrow it down better. I would still lean for the St Croix Salt offerings still though (Avid Inshore)their rods can sure take a beating I give them
  12. Nice surprise! Their fights are better since they die quicker for faster cookin, be nice of crappie and pickerel went like that
  13. ^ It's still the case, look at ads/flyers these days, they all have fine print that states if a price is incorrect it won't be upheld due to typographical error. The price listed anywhere from the store is law, for legal reasons.
  14. Round handrail bases bolted to the plywood floor, as an easy removal you can use cotterpins to secure the walker to the bases

  16. Well it depends on the line, it is meant for smaller applications If you wanna meet up some time let me know, weather permitting
  17. Since I only shore fish the pointers I can give you is use heavier line, texas rig/bullet weight plastic worms with bargain hooks from a discount bin or outlet store and recon the area your fishing, learn the bottom where you fish to give you a better understanding on how to target the surroundings. It's tough on snags and there is little you can do to get it back but if the tug doesn't work walk up or down quite a way and try it again.
  18. As for the question, I don't care, there's enough wrong labeling that goes around to where you end up losing more anyway, another common is its the right price but the label is wrong since no one wants to print a new label It was retail stores that started the tag line. Another was if the price was mispriced they would give the lower amount regardless.
  19. Born and raised here Wouldn't mind a meet up if the weather is good Yeah cabelas went nuts with rod types for a bit, good to see they reduced them, bad that I have one that needs to be returned under the 25 year warranty and the length isn't made anymore On that 51E you might not have enough room to cast far
  20. As for both being dramas, they still can't compare genres. I'm just glad these shows are good, SOA, Breaking Bad, Walking Dead.
  21. From what I've been hearing, sounds like he was a legend in the making
  22. I was thinking the rod manufacturers make it seem more feasible to have 7'6" and longer rods be Heavy action for choice
  23. When I said I checked out the Mojo I was pertaining to what my fishing stores have for a selection in 7'6", which I find is very poor. It seems like whenever I want to look at a new rod somewhere the only ones that are paid the most attention are 6-7' mediums and medium heavys, so it's very slim on me checking out something outside that range just to compare. When it comes to sea rods they're usually over 7 foot but mostly thicker and don't have the same feel as a fresh rod. The part about distance doesn't bother me, it's trying to get more length out from fishing parallel to the shore, I find certain areas I would benefit from extending out a few more inches Yeah, it looks like the 764 is a heavy
  24. Who the hell is crying? OP made a rant and I'm confirming it with facts. You been here for one month and have no etiquette here, grow up.
