100 Dollar Bait Caster
Another vote for the T3 ballistic on sale right now. $109.88 is a steal for it.

T3 Ballistic Casting Reel
I picked one up awhile ago when it was on sale, and fell in love with the reel. At $109.88, I think it's an absolute STEAL. It's a lot smaller and compact than pictures lead you to believe. I really wish you wouldn't have posted this because now it looks like I'll be picking up atleast two more of these reels.

Do You Give Up On Lures
I usually don't immediately give up on lures that don't produce for me. I'll give them a honest couple of tries. However, if I'm going through my boxes to thin the herd late in the year, you can bet the ones that produced the least will be the first to go.

Is Bass Pros Spring Sale In Store Only?
I hope the online sale starts soon. I have a gift card burning a hole in my pocket waiting to pick up a new crankin reel!

Who's Used The New Daiwa Exceler Casting Reels
I have two of the new excelers and love them for what I paid for them. The only "geary" feeling I get is in the handle, and TT mentions it in their review. Super smooth, light, and palms well for the price.

Clearance Tackle
Checked my local walmart and a lot of things were on clearance but only like $.50 off. Going to check the neighboring town's walmart tonight to see what they have.

Cabelas Just Pushed Bps In The Mud An Stole His Girlfriend.
That's because it's the old version of the exceler. The new model is a league ahead of the old one, imo.

What Jerkbait Was Brandon Paluniuk Throwing On Facts Of Fishing
The bit where they pulled it up in front of the camera is definitely a RC STX or a 110.

Bass Resource Made Me Do It
I've bought multiple things because of BR but the two most prominent would be Northstar jigs and the Fat Ika. I don't regret buying either because they both have produced quite nicely.

Pond Fishing Help?
Absolutely smashed them today with a 6" roboworm dark purple color with a chartreuse tip on a shakey head. Also caught a few on a LC 78sp in american shad.

Shooting Asian Carp
Although shooting them is fun, there are other ways that are much more enjoyable. We have a section of a river that was dammed off now is has no current and has became infested with the carp. We use two boats one died behind the other that is using the motor. This puts you in perfect position to really whack the carp when they jump. We've used bats, shovels, rakes, chainsaws, weed eaters, broom handles. Basically everything. The most amount we've got in our boat in one day is 110. That doesn't count the fish we whacked that didn't make it into the boat.

Question For The Rage Guys
Craw and Lobster for me. I've always like a bigger profile when fishing a jig. And like others have said, if a smaller profile is desired just bite some off!

Goodbye Diawa, Hello Abu Garcia
X2 The Tdpro in daiwa's line up is like Shimano's caenan. It's the lower end of daiwa's reels. And used zillions are the way to go. I've passed up the chance to buy two of them this week for 140 shipped each.

My First Diawa
I'm pretty much the same way. Bought my first daiwa reel two weeks ago and have since then sold two of my shimanos and am trying to get rid of my third one!

I Just Robbed Dicks
Dang! Wonder if this is going on at every dick's. Might have to take an hour and a half drive to my "local" one.

Rage Tail Challenge
I've fished most of the Rage Tail line and have been thoroughly impressed. The only problem I seem to have is when to put on one type of trailer over the other. For instance when would using a rage chunk be better than a rage craw or lobster and vice versa?
