Let me know maybe meet up

@emowensYes I have fished there once. Fall bite is on. I’m looking to get out this week after work a few times anyone else looking to wet some lines. I got a new Diawa Zilliion to wear out.

It really is a good rod. I used it a lot over past week like it a lot. I have Several high end rods I’m comparing it to. When I say high end I mean 200-400 dollar rods.

I bought one tried it seems really well balanced and sensitivity is on par with the price point. Just my two cents. Pm me this brand we don’t discuss. I’m new to this forum and it’s driving me nuts with what rymes with Halloween. Lol.

You ever get a answer I’m looking for a club also a fishing partner.

I’m chad always looking for people to fish with in the south west part of ohio. I live inCinncinati I’m not far from you would love to fish with ya sometime. See ya on the water. If ya ever need a partner hit me up. I have fished Rocky Fork a ton. I’m game to fish with ya sometime. If you ever need a fishing partner let me know. I fish year round.

I have same reel it’s great. I was so impressed coming from Shimano that I ordered a zillion yesterday. Can’t wait to see it against my Tatula

I have 3 Mojos one is a froggin rod takes a beating and boat flopping. Hell of a made rod for the money. For 130 probably one of the best for the money all things considered.

Suffix 832. Or power pro which ever on sale. Although suffix 832 seems smother.

Looking for fishing buddy to Hit LMR and Ohio River and a few ponds with. Send me pm if interested. Fished Ohio River today pretty productive 3 smallies Around 2-3 pounds and a big channel cat. Not bad for 2 hrs of fishing.

God I’m $642.90 poorer thanks to tackle wharehouse. This is a bad addiction. At least crack dealers don’t take credit cards. Worst addiction ever.

Once you get good there is no tree to high that you cant send a Lucky Craft Sammy fying into the top of. While your buddy laughs so hard and says you have a better chance of catching more fish if you keep it in the water. This is what you get trying to throw to shad jumping halfway across the lake. Those Shimano Core 50s will sail a sammy like no other. Good Luck and it gets better with time and quality reel helps more than you think.

I love it on spinning reels. I only use Power Pro on baitcasters.

SHIMANO Cumara,

I seen walmart spinning vertas 79.99 I believe is where I was at.

I use the Snip from above they work great. I love them when fishing creeks just clip to the vest and its right there.

Vertas 79.99 Light Strong Sensitive.

I fish this same river in Milford if you would like I could show you a few spots. Just pm ME

Spro frog bronze eye for me. Rod tip down twitch it pop it hop it. Very effective in open water along the shore timber lay downs slop muck weeds. Deadly over weeds. Open water is very productive when the bass our hitting top water. There really is no wrong way to fish it just vary your retrive and think realisim what do frogs do and imitate that. Good luck Oh yea big bass producer .

I am going to say that I just really like to have a combo for a specific task and leave it that way. One instance if I am working a bait and all the sudden bas start poping shad on the water I can go directly to a differnt combo and 90% of the time I will catch that fish. I believe more tackle and combos help you deliver a better presentation and give that bait the movement it needs. Just like when I throw spinnerbaits I like to have a softer tip to obsorb the shock of that fish smacking it like a frieght train. I believe the better suited for your situation and the more time you have with your bait in the water up your chances of catching that monster. The downside to all of this my Wife thinks I am nuts and spend to much money on gear. I think Coach purses are crap. Thats my take sorry for getting of track. Welcome to the greatest fishing forum on the web.

Ok I see the Revo Toro Winch in left hand I found it online for 279.99 at Bass Pro. I think that I will head to Bass Pro and feel the calcutta and the Revo.

Is that Calcutta 201te a palmable reel? To be honest I have never used a round reel before.

I think the Revo Winch is something I need to consider TW has them for 159.00 I could buy to and use one for a crankbait reel or to slow roll spinnerbaits and it comes in lefthand retrieve. I think this is the reel I will try I just cant find the calcutta in a slower left hand retrieve.

I have been throwing the weedless grass minnow and 6inch huddelston also the money minnow 3/8 ounce. I know I want a slow real I feel a slow steady retrieve has given me the best results. I really love throwing swimbaits. I live in Ohio and we average bass in the 3lb-5lb nothing really bigger comes along to often it does but its rare so I do not think that throwing the 8inch is something I want to try. I have done a quite a bit of research on swim bait nation and I am just lost on how slow a reel is recomended and what kind of rod it calls for. I am not really worried about losing money I am a gear junkie anyways. I read that 15-25lb mono is recomended but I would rather throw braid Power PRO would be my choice but I would consider Floro or what ever is recomended. I can always use a calcutta for something else I just heard that the Cardiff was just as good as the Calcutta. I figured that was a wash I throw in grass lilypads brush sticks laydows thats where I spend my time losing fish and baits. Thanks for all of the suggestions and help I should have put more details in the first post sorry that was my fault. I looked at the CTE200GT it does not come in left hand retrieve thats anothere problem I am running into is most of the slower gear ratios are all right hand retrieve. It seems that all the lefty reels are burners you would think that their is as many lefty users as the opposite I guess not.

Ok money is not really a issue I can spend 400.00-500.00 on the reel. I am trying to get a good reel for swimbaits. I looked at the Shimano Calcutta& Shimano Cardiff,Shimano Cuarado 300e. I have to have a left hand retrieve. Is the Calcutta that much better than Cardiff? I dont mind spending the money if it is but my other problem is wich speed is best for swimbaits like huddelston? I know it needs to be slow but how slow? What would make a good dedicated rod? How much should I spend on a rod? Is super sensitve important like it is in bottom bouncing? I new to swimbaits so any info is greatly appreciated .
