Pro Qualifier 2 Spinning Reel
Picked up two of them yesterday at sale. They feel light and amazing. Can’t wait to use them in spring.

Braid on crankbait rod?
For crankbaits I use floro or mono. I want tight wobbles. When I did use braid I noticed how “loose” the wobbles were. It’s definitely makes a difference having the right line. I’d go with floro.

Rapala Floating Minnows & Creek Fishing
Shad Raps work the best but in a creek the original Rapala would be my Joyce. Shad rap dives deeper would get hung up more.

St. Croix Legend X 610MLXF Spinning Rod
I have a Legend Xtreme 7MH I got on clearance several years ago. I use it for mostly bottom contact. Best rod ever. I can tell you everything on bottom with that rod from strike to log to rock. It will help you get bass that bite soft. You feel every bite. Enjoy it you’ll want to fish it with every lure.

Bass Pro Johnny Morris Carbon lite 2.0 Spinning Reel
I seen Quantum has 50% off but this being made by Daiwa and weighing 7.4 oz over 8.4 oz on quantum smoke s3 spinning might be what I get.

Rostertails are underrated 100%
I’m a fan of both but I agree Mepps spin way better. Though I’ve got tons of smallmouth and largemouth on Roostertail.

Excalibur Square Bill

New spinning reel
I’m with majority on Supreme XT! I’ve owned mine for 6 years running. Had to order a new reel handle but it’s an amazing reel. I was looking on TackleWarehouse and I found this sweet deal. A Daiwa JDM Ballistic FW LT Spinning Reel. Right now 39% off originally $319.98 on sale for $194.98. To me that’s a steal for a spinning reel.

Excalibur Square Bill
Don’t know why they call them “Excalibur“ either. I know I’ll be getting a few anyway. The Storm Smash shads look amazing. Looks like these are a magnet for Stripers from reviews I read. Anyhow I’ll be getting both lures.

Favorite Bluegill Colored Lipless Crank Bait ?
I’m with majority on Rapala but I also like Strike King. Rat-L-Traps here are a gem. I don’t use anything but chrome colors of Rat-L-Traps. I’ve caught most of my bass on Rat-L-Traps from Illinois to Alabama. They catch fish.

I was looking at the Bass Pro Fishing Classic sale on March 12th and found on front page “Excalibur Square Bill.” Went onto bass Pro website to not find it in search. Are these any good!? The sale price is $2.99 originally $6.99.

Fluorocarbon what do you use?
You think a copolymer is better? I’ve tried it on Baitcasters but didn’t like it. The Sniper FC I love on baitcasters. Is a copolymer or FC much better? I feel like how well floro did on my baitcasters would be good on my spinning .

Fluorocarbon what do you use?
I’ve used some cheap FC before & it was bad. I do think there’s a difference between cheap and expensive. I don’t use leaders. Don’t think I need them. I like one knot over two. I can tie those knots but prefer just straight FC.

Fluorocarbon what do you use?
I’m going to try it out. I Def know what you mean. Sunline isn’t cheap. To rig tons of poles with it would be costly. Thanks
