Good but reasonably priced polarized glasses?
Strike King S-11 is a good choice

carp
I'm not sure, however I have caught them with senko's and skirted jigs. Hooks in the mouth, not snagged like a lot of guys do with crankbaits.
-
Yum Dingers
I have know idea why the quantity has increased. Like others before me, dingers are the lightest stick baits around and the main reason I do not fish them. I was at my local Walmart yesterday and the fishing aisle was shockingly bare.

Chatterbait supplanting Spinnerbait?
I have confidence in spinnerbaits. Based on that alone, spinnerbaits will not be replaced by chatterbaits anytime soon.

Anybody ever had a rod shipped by cabelas?
Selling and shipping fishing gear is one of their specialties. Not much to worry about here.

Anyone else hate super slick
I love the original SS, the reason I went with it was the lack of wind knots on my spinning gear. I use fluorocarbon leaders so knots are not a problem. This will be my fourth year without changing to new line, yes it has faded and frayed, however that hasn't hurt the performance one bit. My question is, is new and improved on SS2.

I need help with these Owner hooks, couple of questions
The owner twist lock light 3/0 is what I use for all of my 5" senkos when fishing weightless. For the ol monsters I would use a 5/0 ewg. Sorry I really do not use flukes very often, can't help you there.

Things that really frustrate me about some fishermen.
The trash part is always going to be there, unfortunately As I bank fish the majority of the time, I will always police the area before I leave. In other words I always leave the place better than when I arrived. The taking of fish, especially from ponds or small urban park settings will always be upsetting to me. If harvesting is permitted, not much I can do.

Braid for medium/medium-light spinning application
Plenty of good choices available. Since you like Suffix, I would go with 15lb 832 in hi vis yellow.
-
Your wheelhouse...
Swim jig, spinner bait, plastic swim bait(little dipper, keitech), weightless senko.
-
Scent
Megastrike and pro cure are what I use. After watching MLF, I have come to realize that the pros rarely use the stuff. Because of that I have drastically reduced my use.

Out of line ?
Nope, especially if the bucket heads have shore access.

Disrespectful Fishermen
Louisiana yard dog would be a better option.

No fishing boats in Michigan
Quick update, no actual language in executive order or law passed banning the specific use of motorboats or jet skis. DNR has not responded to my request for a clarification.

ICAST 2020 Cancelled
Since icast isn't open to the public, I'm not sure what the big deal is. The majority of the info that we received in the past was from you tube videos. Companies can send their own videos to prospective buyers and release them to the general public when they see fit.

Those vessel's require physical activity, that's according to the executive order.
