Daiwa Diehard Might Have To Make A Change
If they followed shimanos path I hope they don't add $100 to the price for their imported jdms!

Ebay Rant: Won The Auction But Did I Really Win Here?
Some sellers don't pay attention to listing the shipping process. When I ship I listed as free, the type of shipping was always left alone through the listing process. I always shipped 2/3 day priority mail though And it was immediately.

Why stick with one brand anyway. Many options out there to just wait for one brand to come out a with a new product

What Size Line For Baitcaster When Throwing Jerkbaits And Weightless Senkos?
I use 12, I would use 10 if I didn't have fish with teeth around

St Croix Spinning Rod Owners: Need Your Opinion On Legend Elites
It is much better when it comes to sensitivity. In the weight/feel and power/action wise they feel similar. Though it'll really depend on needed it with what you'll be using it for.

Looking At Light Lure Spinning Options
Would also through out the Lews Team Gold Carbon, it's $130 and 7.3oz for the 2000 size which is fairly light as well

Kayak Vs Inflatable Fishing Boat
For kayaks, I'd look into Point 65 N modular kayaks. I'm still interested in picking one up some day to get into tiny water. You could get a front and back piece and keep them in a suv

Curado I Vs E - E Is Outperforming I. Is This Your Experience?
There is no issue. The E style was set-and-forget, no dialing in, no tuning for different types and weighted lures, it was simple and effective. I could simply throw a 1/8oz bare jig/grub, switch to a 1/2 jerkbait, and off to pitch a 3/8 jig with out brake adjustments. On the svs it's a chore compared to it. The SVS added more 'hoops' for adjustment.

Curado I Vs E - E Is Outperforming I. Is This Your Experience?
I've said this about the ci4 chronarch too, the braking system is too fineky vs the old tried and true E system.

Don't See How You Guys Do It..
Prespawn is the best time to go out and catch bigger bass, followed by fall bite. You should regroup your efforts and try something different.

I Think I Got The Wrong Reel And Rod.
That's a good start. Stick with the duckett instead of the mojo, it's not bad but just not worth it in its price range, there's many better options in that range and you will want more sensitivity for your techniques you're using. There's other brands in that price range, maybe others will suggest options

Rank In Order.
All of them are equally important, I would also add the lure too since you don't want that to fail either

That is true but there's too much teeth up here. I would trade the pickerel for them.

Which Setup For Swimbaits?
One thing I do when looking at new combos is see what else I can use them for. My swim bait rod doubles for A-rigs and is my striper rod. Okuma did their homework before releasing the big bait rods and they have an excellent price. Even if you turn to not liking the whole experience you can resell it fast.

Field And Stream Retail Store
I have never been to one, but it is DSG's answer for a more outdoors than sporting goods store, which is far better than tripping over the golf section that takes up 2/3rds of a DSG to get to the tackle.

Field And Stream Retail Store
Their locations are based off the demographs. When I go to Cabs or BPS the parking lot is full of cars from Canada and Virginia. They have to get into the middle of everyone
