Can Rods Warp?
You're telling me that if the tip of my rod bends a few 1/8s of and inch to the right, that's nothing to worry about? Also, I did the same thing, and stored my rods leaning on the waal a bit. ( Only for 3 days, though.)

Hi, I have a question about my rods. When you lean rods (and reels)on the wall and the handle is really close to the wall, is this bad for the rod?

Indoor Fishing Practice
Hello everybody, here in pennsylvania, there are about 5 inches of snow outside, so I was wondering if anyone knows any ways to practice fishing inside? I usually go outside and cast into a hula hoop, but with the snow, I am restricted to the indoors. Any advice?

Dumb Question
Hello everone, I have a dumb question. So, on Berkley chigger craws and other soft plastic baits, on the claws of the bait, there are these thin, plastic connectors connecting the claws. Should these be removed? Are they meant to be removed?

Reel Oil
So a drop of oil on the worm shaft will do it?

Star Drag
I read that to help keep your drag good, you should back off the star drag all the way. On my old Black Max reel, when I back off the star drag, it gets easier to loosen, then tighter. This normal?

Reel Oil
I have a Shimano Citica, and I was reading the reel maintenance instructions on Shimano's website. It says to use Shimano's "bantam oil". I have Abu Garcia reel oil. This will work the same, right?

You Don't Have To Be Fancy To Catch Fish...
My uncle (a great fisherman) catches tons of large bass with a very old Abu Garcia rod and a very old Mitchell spinning reel. It's not what you have, it's what you do with what you have.

Extra Room In Tackle Bag
I just bought a nice big tackle bag with lots of boxes. It has 7 boxes. I used one box for jigs, one for crankbaits, one for soft plastics, and one for terminal tackle. What should I use the last 3 for?

Citica Question
I also hear a very faint noise when I reel in (It is very small). I haven't fished or cast with it yet, does it just need to be broken in?
