Who's the best pro angler right now?
Impossible to answer. This isn't as simple as saying Tom Brady is the best QB in the NFL.

LSU Basketball in Trouble
I don't know if Devonte Smart and Ja'vonte Smart are the same person or not. But Ja'vonte needs a bigger top and I have no idea what is going on with his shorts.

Cleaning and lubing reels
No, it isn't.

Not sure what show you are talking about, but you can watch The Hunt for Monster Bass with Ott DeFoe which has what seems like the same basic idea. Just be sure to check your pulse every once in a while. Ott seems like a GREAT guy, but his voice and that music make me sleepy.

Best Budget Fishing Line
People buy a $1,200 bow, $150 arrows, $200 sights, $125 rest, $100 stabilizer, and then ask "what's the cheapest good broadhead". Blows my mind.
- Winn Grips or Cork? What do you prefer?

dock talk...
If I am leaving the lake and someone getting ready to launch asks me if I did any good, I will tell them where I caught them, what I caught them on, and how many I caught. I'm just an honest guy. They can take it, or leave it.

Reel Snot or KVD Line Conditioner
I have used both. The Reelsnot is pretty greasy/oily and it can get on your grips, handles and reel. I am pretty new to it but I have used the KVD for years. After my small time with the Reelsnot, I would recommend KVD. Nothing against the Reelsnot, just a little bit too much "oil" for me.

Rod companies with the best balance?
No matter the weight of the reel? No matter the length of the rod? I am no rocket scientist, but I don't see how that could be.

Fast tip with what line
I use Sunline Super Natural Mono in 14 lb as my "all-around" line.

Favorite creature baits for skipping?
Texas rigged with whatever weight you choose and I always peg the weight when skipping. I have skipped them weightless to change up the ROF. I am sure you could rig them on a jig head as well, I have never done it that way though.

Favorite creature baits for skipping?
You might look at Berkley Chigger Craws and Reaction Innovation Sweet Beavers, I really like them both.
-
Rod companies with the best balance?
Wouldn't the weight of the reel determine the answer to the question? A Steez at 5.6 vs a Antares at 8.2? Call me crazy

Johnson 175 idles a little rough
Please, please, please take it to a mechanic and let them look at it. There are very knowledgeable people here, but I don't know if they can help you.

Judging fish by pics
My apologies. I prefer not to estimate. The reason I say this. Take the two pics I posted as an example. When we catch a fish, we always guess before we weigh. The fish that weighed 4.15, I guessed 3.8. The fish that weighed 4.8, I guessed 5.3. To me, that was just mind blowing how being there and actually seeing the fish vs seeing a picture of a fish can make a HUGE difference.

I have seen guys post pics of deer where they are literally sitting so far behind them it makes them look like a horse.
