  1. What kind of line? Is it slipping on the spool?
  2. I used the 7ft micro with no probs. I prefer them to the regular guides, thats just me.
  3. xtackle has it on a google search
  4. Nice reel. You throwing swimbaits with it?
  5. alternate ending *she is filleted and beer battered, served with fresh veggies and crinkle cut fries*
  6. snakeheads and salt water fishies(if I get invited on a boat)
  7. pm this user LgMouthGambler He will answer your question
  8. you are limited at that price in all honesty but you could order a mettle reel from academy for 49.99 but its rh...probably the best reel in this price because its aluminum framed and has centrifugal brakes. You can get a berkley lightning rod/shock from walmart for 40 bucks and some lines for 10-15 and call it a day. If you can find a good used reel in the market that may be a good bet for you, walmart also has some abu combos on the shelf for 99 and under, they are graphite framed but will work well
  9. sweet catch! I have been hitting up spots crazy and as recent as today, the heat is unreal out there
  10. They come from the same factory...so I hear...abus also
  11. Thanks for the clarification. If I cant dispose of them "properly" Ill let them back because Id rather do that than this @5:00 and 10:00, which I find disrespectful to do that to peoples homes
  12. griffin canal and the connecting waterways seem to always have them from around university to flamingo
  13. Almost melted yesterday. 14 shades darker and the bugs were biting
  14. It finally happened, I killed one on a hookset yesterday with a koppers 65, it looked paralyzed before it died and became gator food. I did end up killing another from being out of the water too long trying to find my friends to take a pic. I did catch a nice 4lb bass in the process of trying to catch snakes. It was way too hot to fish yesterday but we had a friend from out of town who loves to fish, he only caught a bass tho, but was better than nothing.
  15. I fished Friday for snakeheads, finished at 5...passed out at my gfs house from the heat after dinner and drove home after midnight. Im 4 shades darker. I cant imagine what tomorrow will feel like My friend who is a novice hooked a bass that looked like it was about 8lbs. It came off the line, it pulled so much drag, it was locked down and the hook wasnt even exposed from the frog. My biggest bass was 6lbs and it looked much bigger at the surface.
  16. Diggy replied to nickw234's topic in Fishing Tackle
    I like to use black and cricket/brown color since it looks similar-ish to what we have locally. In heavy matter vegetation, I feel any color will work since they just hit it based on movement since they can barely see it.
  17. You could have probably added a ten dollar off coupon to that also
  18. thats so 2011, step it up Or you could ask my friend to show you his patented angel of death hook set
  19. fb is basically their fishing site now
  20. I used to but for what? All that happens is there is less snakeheads in the spots that I used to fish like (Coral Springs). Wild life officials also said they dont want people tossing the carcasses onto the banks as I used to do (im sorry fwc). I thought you had to kill them but you don't, so I dont bother anymore. I found some new spots noone fishes filled with snakes and still tons of bass to catch if people choose to do so, but noone fishes them. I see bass swimming next to snakes and no extreme bass killing is going on so I have come to my own conclusion on the matter. I have witnessed bass hammering the snakehead fry also. If I do decide to get rid of some, Ill sell them to the Asian Market if they are buying =) Don't you have a 12 paragraph rant to go write on why lew's reels suck and Shimano es numero uno?
  21. You dont have to kill them here. I sure as heck won't eat fish from these canals unless I'm forced to, so they go back. I used to kill them thinking I had to but it wasn't true so I let them be, especially because they are fun to catch.
  22. Capt shane has one, he might be able to help
  23. No, that wasn't me. Boatless fisherman here
  24. Thats what I was thinking. Booyah frog, basically swallowed by the fish
