New Combo
It was a baggie with 2 washers in. I didn't take anything apart. If I do an extra click it isn't a fight for the fish. If it's where I think the drag should be set just reeling in the bait the reel makes the drag sound. I could just keep it where it is, but then it isn't much of a fight I guess. Idk. Maybe I'm just being peculiar.

New Combo
Yea. I bought 2 of the carbon x ii. I only had one spool of line. As soon as I get more, or decide if the small amount is worth putting on ill try the 2nd rod. Maybe I should add the 2 washers they sent?

New Combo
Today I got my new Dobyns Sierra in. I paired it with my Piscifun Carbon 2. I found old line in a tackle box. I can't afford much rn. It is 12lb copolymer. I took the rod and reel immediately to where I catch smallies almost every time. 3/16 oz weight with zoom cotton candy worm curly tail. One thing I noticed is that if the drag is too loose it will click while reeling in just the bait and weight. We'll when I tightened it it just horsed the bass in. It wasn't really a fight. I do love the rod. The reel is good. But is there anything I can do to solve the issue for the reel, or just keep it a little tighter on the drag? The labor day purchases I got were these 4 reels and 2 Dobyns rods: Piscifun Torrent 2 6.6:1 Torrent 2 8.1:1 (or something close) 2 Carbon X 2 Dobyns Kaden CB Casting 7 4 med hvy fast Sierra 7ft med hvy fast. Apparently my pics are too big to upload.

Spooling line
Labor day weekend i ordered a dobyns cb casting rod, sierra spinning rod, and 4 piscifun reels-2 baitcasters 1 low gear 1 high gear, and 2 spinning reels. In the past I've tried spooling my own line. It didn't work well. I have a fleet farm near me. But people have told me it's mostly inexperienced people there. I also have a Cabelas about an hour away. Do I just go to Cabelas? I was thinking of doing mono to braid for spin, and fluro on the low gear bc and braid on the other bc. Any recommendations?

WISCO BASS CLUBS
I know if a few bass clubs. But sadly I can't afford, or own a boat. I almost bought a kayak, but I lack space. How does one become a coangler? I offered on a Facebook post that I'd pay both the entry and the side pot for me and the boat owner. Nobody had taken me up on it.

It's been a long time since I have been on this forum. A long time ago I was on bass pro shops talk forums as tattoodfreak. I picked up fishing again last year. I recently ordered 2 dobyns, 4 reels, bought a champion xp and curado k last month used, and a lews mach crush with a duckett used last week. I am just saying hi again.

2 Questions.
I was really accurate with a slingshot 1/2 -3/4 block away during dark. Anyway i know guns are different. I will get practice after i buy. I was looking at a springfield armory xd service model .45 or a ruger sr .45. Both are under 415 dollars. Was just thinking about getting it. I just heard about a shooting at a Miami club and the sick thing in Oklahoma. I cant stand bbeing worried if something is going to happen to me or my family. If i have this then i would feel more comfortable.

Might Get Wi Concealed Carry
Wisconsin carry offers the class free..... I believe. It is four hours. I found a place that rents out guns. 8 $ per hour and I forgot how much for shooting lane plus you buy the bullets there.

Might Get Wi Concealed Carry
I totally understand the concealed carry course is 4 hours. Im not just going to go then get my permit then start carrying the gun without ever practicing or firing it. I do travel to Milwaukee quite a bit. I believe if you have the owners permission at that bar as long as you re not drinking you can carry. Bouncing wouldnt be a good idea with it. I get that. I seen the s and w shield and the springfield xd line both have good reviews.

Might Get Wi Concealed Carry
I work ft at a facory too. I would like a gun for protection. I meant things are getting crazy in the city where I live. The heroin usage is up 600 percent alot of robberies. Stabbings and shootings are happening here in this city too now. I wasnt concerned couple years ago. If I don t have a hand gun and its a concealed carry state, I understand being a bouncer its not bright to have it ok, but why not have it for protection? Is it because I would be new to guns? I see flyfisher stated I shouldn t get one. I was just curious why?

Might Get Wi Concealed Carry
I understand. I was thinking that as well. I m not getting a gun just to get a gun and feel badass. Im getting a gun because things are getting crazy here.

Might Get Wi Concealed Carry
Im fine with learning. It would be for self defense. There was a girl several months ago that was waiving a gun in the hip hop level. The owner doesnt have it posted no guns allowed. I would feel more safe. Some of the people are feom milwaukee. They had 12 shootings there this past weekend. My wife and I travel there as well. I would use it if I had to (the gun). Also I can have more rights with mace in self defense if I have ccw. I would definitely take classes and go to someplace to get acclimated with the gun.

Might Get Wi Concealed Carry
My boss suggested it actually. No other bouncer uses force there. I ve had people threaten me and my life. I'm not saying I would use it. Also wisconsin if you don't drink and you have bar owners permission you can have it This ccw also is beneficial for having mace as well.
