Buying Rod, Need Advice Please
I would definitely add a MH to your arsenal. I prefer a MH for almost all applications aside from some treble hook baits, then I will use a M. JMO

Tatula Vs Duckett
I have Daiwa Tatula reels and was dead set on getting the rods to match. I went to BPS and there was just something about the Tatula rods that I didn't care for. I don't know if it was the reel seat and the length of the front grip or what. I just went to look at the ghost rods and I ended up getting the ghost rods. I used them this past weekend and was really happy with them. I have read about all of the problems with them, so I just hope I got some good ones. I am in no way saying one is better than the other, just personal preference is all. I can't handle the old saying that they are "ugly". I think people drive cars that are ugly, but if they like they way it looks, then who am I to judge?

Cod Ghost Or Bf4 For Ps3??
COD SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I haven't bought the new maps or weapons and if you get in a lobby with someone who has upgraded, you might as well kiss it good buy. EVERY game I play against someone using the Maverick, they are first place every time. I will buy BF4 this week and I will use COD as a coaster. I hope Activision goes under........................... Rant over.......

Classic On Espn2
I have watched it. It was decent. I did laugh when seeing Randy Howell say "I will touch the trophy" or something along those lines. He also said "I have 2 bananas in my boat, so oh well" Pretty funny since I already knew the outcome.

Braid To Floro Knot
I don't like it going through my guides. I usually only use a 12-16" leader and don't reel it past the tip. I also sometimes use a bead on my braid and the weight above it, so the knot stops the bead and it is sort of like a Carolina rig.

Yes, BPS exchanged it. I didn't have my receipt, so I advise that you keep yours.

I had one break, but I am not real sure what happened. I had a spinner bait hung up on a stump and I was leaned over the boat trying to get it unhung. I had the rod in my left hand and thought I had let out enough line. I think maybe the line got wrapped around a guide and it snapped. Other than that, I was very happy with them.

Shimano Crucial
I used Crucials exclusively last year. If it were ME, I would opt for the MH for an all purpose worm rod.

Oklahoma, where you can experience all four seasons in one week.

Chronarch 50E Question
No hard feelings. I just think with a full spool it would be hard to throw all your line out on any reel.

Cod Ghost Or Bf4 For Ps3??
When you are on "lag" as I call it, you might as well quit that game and join a new one. I have watched kill cams before after I have been killed and as I was playing, I was shooting them and they killed me. Watched the kill cam and it never showed me take a shot. Very frustrating.

Without the promise to add the Bill of Rights, the Constitution might not have been ratified.

Your partner is casting over 100 yards????? WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

Random Thoughts And Questions
Trust me, I have a full understanding of the Constitution and its intentions. The Bill of Rights was added to ensure that individual rights would not, or could not be infringed upon. However, the 3rd Amendment is a prime example of the founding fathers still putting much of their emphasis on England and specifically George III. There was no way they had the foresight to see how bad things have got in America, and that is why the Constitution is a living document. It can be changed, and I am sure women and blacks are thankful for that. I am PRO gun, so I don't want to see any more anti gun legislation passed. The bad guys are gonna have guns no matter the laws. All anti gun laws do is punish honest people.

Chronarch 50E Question
It will hold about 85 yards of 50lb braid. That's about twice as far as someone could cast a 3/4 oz jig.

Chronarch 50E Question
It will hold more line than you can throw on one cast.

When Is A Fish No Longer Considered A "dink" In Your Opinion?
In our trail, it has to be 14" to be weighed in. So anything under 14" is a dink, lol.
-
Jig Setup Question
The Core 50 is a great reel. I would opt for the 50 over the 100. I don't always throw jigs, but when I do, I use 65lb braid with a 17lb Fluoro leader.
