  1. Senko yes a senko have yet to catch a fish on one. Every other worm I have ever used I've caught a fish on. Tried Texas, Carolina, drop shot, weightless wacky rigged at docks, on stonewalls in vegetation and nothing.
  2. Yeah that one jack a$$ with the Yellow Sea plane is a $6)?477&$(@$!(>€ he almost hit us once and another time landed right where we were casting. He thinks he owns the lake.
  3. How would one go about doing this?
  4. Just went to order one for my buddy and they are sold out apparently.
  5. +1 I returned it and got another, next trip out it started again but not as bad. Had used cabelas points and got that combo when it came out it isn't a bad reel at all just get what you pay for. The rod is pretty good tho.
  6. BC reels at cabelas $30 right now, RH models
  7. I have the 6'6 mh not a bad rod by any means. The ml u could try it for drop shot?..
  8. How soon is soon? I'd suggest spinnerbaits, senkos, cranks in main river and frogs, senkos and other soft plastics in the canals.b
  9. lmao stupid auto correct fail
  10. I got 2 Tatulas that I haven't fished yet, was my experience supposed to be twice as organic. If that's the case I got ripped off lol
  11. So I found a site with abec 3 and 5 bearings cheap. Upgraded my buddies Stradic With all new bearings with single sided rubber shielded ones on each side of the main drive. Night and day difference! Grabbed a bunch of the small ones for reel handles at a buck each after I got ripped off by boca for $8 each. Anyhow put curado/Chronarch knobs on my citica (beefier than citicas tech L grips) and put 2 bearings under each knob and replaced bushings with bearings on both of my curados. Tiny amount of oil and these things spin great plus feel is just as solid as with the bushings. I did leave in the washers under the bearing on the screw ends. Helped eliminate wobble. Also want to give AvidRC a kudos. Shipping was real quick and bearing quality seems great. ... Do wanna note that the added weight of the knobs and bearings to the citica it does feel like the handle is heavier while palming. Not as balanced as the curados.
  12. I'm illiterate with my left hand, tried playing guitar for years could never get hang of it. Anyhow been casting righty and reeling lefty all my life. Never understood the point of rod switching hands.
  13. I've done this I recommend adding bearings with the new grips.
  14. Saw a smoking hot brunette on one of the shows ice fishing. Would not mind at all having a show with her hosting. Gotta find out her name.
  15. Im looking forward to trying this new one I found, throughout this season. I do not know the name but the braid basicly holds the fluoro like a chinese finger trap. Alot of salt guys I guess use it.
  16. Curados are rock solid, they simply work. No extra bells and whistles. Just a reel that does exactly what its intended to do. Another thing about Shimano alot of guys dont take into consideration, you can almost guarantee you can get parts for it 10, maybe even 15 years down the road. With exception of Daiwa, other brands parts dont come as easy just a year or two down the road.
  17. Nvm delete didn't realize boca had a sizing chart.
  18. Can anyone help me figure out the bearing sizes? Boca has a full kit but I only need 2 of the 5. Thanks in advance!
  19. So have been doing a little job research. Pay compare to here. Obviously Id have to move where I can secure a job. Jobs in my field -Texas Pay 30-40% higher than CT -Oklahoma Pay -15% lower than CT -Florida Pay -30% lower than CT -North Dakota Pay 190-215% higher than CT -Utah -20% lower than CT Plus side is all states are Gun friendly Also just saw Gov Perry of TX just recently passed a infastructure improvement bill. I work in public water supply. There are literally tens of thousands of jobs in TX in my field. Hopefully I can make a move in 1-2 years. Thanks for all the posts!
  20. Property taxes right now my 1300 sq/ft house $8,800, my jeep $1,690, my fiances jetta $790. Filled my tank last night $4.19/gal for 89. My buddy in Houston house is 2,200 sq/ft taxes were $2,100 and as far as I know no car property taxes.
  21. Awesome! Happy for the guy! Wish they hammered cranks up here like that.
  22. A lot during season. Barely in the off season. Off season more time on play station or cleaning and organizing gear.
