Diggy

Possibly, see if the other one swims fine, rigging it once. This bait works, every time I use it I catch fish. Gave it some use again yesterday and caught 3 on it. The biggest fish is still 4lbs 4oz. Ive caught about ten fish now on the same bait and its still in tact.

I believe all of the max reels are graphite framed. Get the PQ, I think they are on sale right now.

Which one is Rick Clunn? jokes on you Thats cool tho, not a routine thing. Im still waiting to run into Jimmy Houston one day.

Awesome, hopefully you do some catching this weekend. Which rod are you throwing them with? Im going to order the mod-pack in 3/8ths next week and see how that goes.

I thought the reel was smooth and casted awesomely. I don't own one but Id have no problem buying one at a discount.I don't see why not if you want one, but I'm sure someone will try to sway you elsewhere though.

You have tons of choices with the BPS stick and the customer service is top notch there so Id go that route. I have one for shallow divers.

I used it as main line, terrible experience with breakage on the spool, but it works awesome as leader material(red label). I ended up using it as that.

That sounds awesome. Probably do this shortly, def cheaper and closer than lake O for now.

I have the exact same reel, I wasn't that fond of it at first but I love it now. I have few issues with back lashing if any..more overruns if any at all. The trick for me is to keep the spool tension a little more loose than normal. Brakes go up to 5 max now if that. The reel is smooth, really smooth. I have 12 fluoro on it for jigs and it sends them flying. The spool holds a lot of line. Like others said you can get it off the bay cheap and the more upgraded reels for around the msrp of the MG or slightly more.

Thanks, never used but will try

I used it again today, 3 fish caught in less than20 casts in different lakes. One went 4lbs 5ozs, these flat out work for me. The same bait is still being used and still looks unscathed. The fish have been inhaling these baits.I'd buy more but I'm still on the first.

Sounds like great fishing can be had but already swapped plans,still going to fish tho. We will try next week. Thanks

thanks, we put the fishing off until the weather is a little more stable

Do you know what the wind was? This would be a rental boat so I assume it would be much worse than your situation. I think its forecasted 13mph

Id like to go there on Sunday since the wind is a bit too much for the lake o trip. Has the fishing been productive there if anyone knows? Thanks

I got a jig hung up on 12lb today and I had to fight to try to break the line off. I got frustrated but I actually got my jig back. Same thing happened yesterday and I pulled a tree limb in until the limb would move no further. I had to wrap the line around the reel feed to break the jig off. Ive broken PP braid easier at times.

0 luckily, other than normal hook pokes

After that video, Im retiring!!!!

sweet

I love the trilene knot..I hardly waste any line on the tag end and its so easy to tie and cinch down

Ive had great luck with zman lizardz in watermelon red. Caught over 50 fish on the same lizard. I also use zoom in junebug and have had great success started with one of those walmart luck e strike 4 buck packs

Hopefully you capitalize. Thats awesome you have a kayak. The wind is crazy outside, Ive been getting bitten on jigs but that all Im fishing at the moment. I caught 2 today on some finesse jigs, dinks but fish is better than no fish in the cold

I have one straight braid reel I use all of the time, I may switch it to high vis yellow to see if it helps "line watching"

I will patiently wait to get an ugly stick from the flea market
