Rain Gear
I have a good roll up set of super lightweight rain gear that works great when it's middle of summer/ high humidity weather. This set is primarily going to be for the rest of the year.

Rain Gear
Looking to pick up a new set next week or so. Was thinking about Cabelas bass angler set jacket/bibs. Always on sale half off. Reviews seem to be good all around. Just seeing what you guys use and has been consistently waterproof without issues. Warmth is not a issue as I tend to layer up with a jacket. But bibs on the other hand I prefer something warm but not too warm for summer. Early spring and late fall I usually wear underarmor under jeans or khakis. Throw me some ideas fellas. Thanks!

Seagar Red Label
It's solid. I picked up a spool to try out in 10#, gave it in my fluke/Jerkbait combo. No complaints.

Scorpion Vs Core
Awesome thanks for the info. I have bright orange, black and dark orange tabs between my Curados Citicas and Chronarchs. Im gonna order some sets and play around with it. never knew this. Edit* On all but 2 reels I only use 2 of the 6 brakes, 1 I use 4 the other none. I'm wondering if maybe just 2 light brakes and thats it not even put the other 4 on.Leave the tabs empty.. You ever try this?

Scorpion Vs Core
Thanks, So anti reverese is 100% on the one way bearing? And do you know the differences in the brake tabs? what each one is?

Scorpion Vs Core
Also, what is the Scorpion, the Chronarch E equal? This thread just got me interested in a jdm reel lol
-
Scorpion Vs Core
Hey can someone elaborate the different colors further. Thanks
-
Scorpion Vs Core
wait a minute, the different color brakes weigh differently? Is there a chart or something? Ive only ever used whatever came with the reels and typically all of them have only 2 set.

Scorpion Vs Core
smoke brakes?

Lews For Salt?
the reel is awesome! I like it a lot! Definitely worth every penny at $100.

Is The Type R Worth The Extra 50$?
I picked up my type r for around $140 including shipping. Theres deals to be had so dont think its a huge $50 increase for a lighter spool. Reel is awesome as is the regular Tatula.

Yo Zuri Hybrid
Report: While Ive caught a bunch of fish on the Hybrid, I'm not crazy about it for bottom contact. Tried throwing Keitechs on 1/2 and 3/4 oz footballs and dragging them. Couldnt really get a feel for the bottom. Maybe it just comes with constant use. However for shallow running moving baits, ie: spinnerbaits, squares etc. I think this line will excell! It does cast great and memory didnt seem like a issue although I did spray LnL on it the night before each outing. Verdict: Dependable line, good value for the money. It will find its way into my arsenal for more applications.

Review: Shimano Stradic Fj Vs. Shimano Stradic Ci4+
Alot of people didnt realize the FJ had x ship and the original ci4 didnt, hence the smoothness of the fj. The + now has x ship. #win

Talked to Mike last night, Im going balls to the wall and getting the guides you went with. 1/8-3/16 SHs + worms are gonna be the main purpose and 5" senkos w/ 4/0 ewg on occasion. I don't know how I'm going to wait for this in suspense for a month!

Custom Rod - Guide Choice Help
it will only be a stradic ci4 2500 so he can do a sic guide set at the perfect measurements same as Roadwarriors basically same rod but for Shaky heads and senkos rather than just senkos. Dvt will vouch I came to him for said rod while RW's was still being built so I'm not copying lol

Custom Rod - Guide Choice Help
Hey all, DVT is going to be making me a rod. Spinning exclusively for shaky heads and weightless t rigged senkos. Theres 2 guide chains that are up for grabs on this piece. 1) Microwave - Never used them and never even heard of them until DVT made the referral. I guess the weird stripper guide helps by allowing you to use smaller guides up top to reduce weight. Seems cool but.. 2) Fuji SIC - I have this set on my previous gen Cumara and love em! They simply work. Never have wind knots, twist, or any issues casting. So... Should I stick with what I know or are the microwaves worth a shot. Its not like I'm buying a $100 pre fab rod. This is gonna cost me more than I'm used to spending on a single rod and don't want to be kicking myself in the arse first day on the water with it. I will also say Ive never had a issue with any of my Kigan, Pac Bay or Evolve(13) guides. Also the new KR concept from Fuji is supposed to be a improvement from the SIC set... Any input is appreciated! Thanks
