braid bad to use on every setup?
Totally up to you. Me personally, I only use spinning gear. So it's all braid for me with flouro or co poly leaders.

Spooled spinning reel wrong!
Will break just as easily, backwards or otherwise. This sums up my vanish experience.

You tube channels
I've dropped five or six of them so far. I call them the LTB or MTB mafia. Once they start that unboxing stuff, I hit the unsubscribe button.

The ubiquitous Ugly Stick
Another vote for Berkley Shocks. Check your local Walmart, mine has them on clearance for $30

Flukemaster no longer number 1 on YouTube
I quit watching the LTB mafia a while ago.

Novice 3 Rod Setup
These are the same setups I use fishing from the bank. The only difference is in line choice, and that is very minor. 15# yellow power pro on the ml and med. 20# on the MH. Red label seaguar for leaders.

Catch & Release
In my neck of the woods, 14" is the smallest you can keep. I personally only practice catch and release. The only time I get upset is when the regulations are being broken . To each his own when it comes to catch and release.
- I want a tackle backpack but which one?

Aaron Martens Edge Rods
Yep, bought one way back in September of 15. Since the majority of comments are about color,There is no need for an in depth review. I will say, this rods performance far exceeds it's offending color.

Is the consolidation of brands going to limit Crankbait innovation?
That is my point. Whenever companies merge, they are in effect eliminating competition. Less competition, less innovation, higher profits. None of that benefits the consumer, IMO.

Competition is a consumers best friend.

Okuma rtx 30s, I have this paired with a Diawa 7'2" Med/Lt Diawa Lexa rod. That's how I Senko fish.

Need help with Carp fishing
You tube is a great starting place. I would recommend using a spinning set up. Although corn is great in catching carp, I would imagine that you are going to see a lot of different carp specific baits being used. This will probably be an eye opening experience for you. Enjoy it and have fun!!

Dye coming off braided line?
It is definitely normal. I might add, from experience, You need to spool braid with tension, it needs to be tight on the spool. I use canvas gloves with the braid intertwined between a couple of fingers. You can also use a damp rag of some sort. Pinching it between your fingers isn't going to be tight enough,.wind knots are in your future if you don't get the line packed tight enough.

Picasso Undressed Shockblade
I have the dressed version, a great alternative bladed jig.

BPS Classic - dissapointing turnout
Unfortunately BPS is just a destination to me, and the Fishing Classic is just an event at a destination. Really not much of anything on sale, considering how over priced they are to begin with.If you think it's bad now. What's it gonna be like if Johnny gets a hold of Cabelas. I've never been a fan of competing companies buying each other out. The consumer always loses in the end.

POLL: We need a Pond/Bank fishing forum!!
Most of the guys on here won't admit that. Out of eighty four instructional videos on this website, two are vaguely about bank fishing. Trust me there's a lot more two it than that. Perhaps a thread of some bank fishing tips and tricks might be appropriate.
