I met two goals this year I finally cashed in a tourny and learned when to downsize. I also figured out a lake that has owned me for years by fishing it over and over and over again until I learned what, where and why. Ended up putting a good bit of fish in the well on a ton of different tactics and in many different conditions.

Jet Skiers

My lews is composite...it really do like it for the sensitivtiy and light weight but I do prefer glass when it comes to crankin. Even though I no longer own a glass rod lol

I own the lews speed stick crankbait..nice rod overall especially in its price point. It handle square bills up the 6xd with ease and is quite sensitive for a crankin stick

I take a dump before I leave the house and that's about it lol

No combos for me yet...did get another *** 7'3MH and I have an *** 7'3MH on order Still in the fence for reels

This thread needs to be a sticky...good good info!

Chronarch ci4+ on a 7'3 ***. Mh

I use flouro for everything but heavy cover jiggin and froggin

While the blank is important the finger is the real indicator of sensitivity..line also plays a role

I don't lol I have a croix ltb, 2 croix premiers, 2 loomis gl2s, a lews laser speed stick, and a *** lol Gonna have a dobyns 735 or a 13 *** soon lol

I like the coffee tubes as well ib green with black flecj and good old pumkin seed...like the bps and gitzit brands as well I especially like to texas rig them

I say that because the 735 is a finalist for my next rod lol...735 or 13 ***. That is the question...or another LTB

If you don't like it ill pm you my address...ill pay shipping

Gettin my first fishin buddy back after 17 years

In that price range I would check out the following: *** *** black St croix premier Fenwick Elite tech Lews tournament SL Bps carbonlite For a few bucks more you could be lookin at a St croix avid or a dobyns savvy

Maybe a litte bit...but my gen 2 is heavier than your gen3. I sold a mojo crankbait for the lews and I'm glad I did. The lews is a good bt better imo. Sensitivity is better and the rod handles much better...if only the lews had a cork grip though

I have the Laser speed stick in a 7ft m cranbait.. With a gen 2 stx on it. It is my crankbait rod and it works pretty good. Nice and light, Sensitive and casts a 5xd a mile! Solid piece for 100 bucks

My cousin has one and loves it...I tried it out and ended uo getting a tournament pro. The MG is d**n hard to beat in its price point. Same goes for Lews reel imo

St croix 7'3 LTB MH/ lews TP/ #20lb invisx - jigs *** 7'1 MH / Curado 201e / #20 invisx - trigs and frogs Lews laser crankbait 7 M/ gen2 abu STX #12 invisx - deep crank baits Loomis GL2 MH / citica 201e / 14# invisx - spinner baits and assorted topwater Loomis GL2 MH / Calcutta 101/ 14# invisx - jerkbaits Plans for this year are a dedicated frog and topwater rigs During the summer my jerbait rod is replaced with a st croix eyecon with a 2500 stradic for drop shots

My only hold up between the Ci4 and the team lews pro is the handle lol...I really wish the ci4 had a cf handle and clicking spool tension

I have a gen 2 stx for cranking. Love it. Casts a 6xd a friggin mile. I bought a gen three and loved it for the two weeks before it broke

Indeed...my salt setup was a stradic 4000 on a 7ft croix premier M. And my tarpon rig was a spheros 6000 on a c7, 6 croix tidemaster.

Sammy 100 or stanley ribbit frog...d**n I dunno lol

Ironically I was just searching for some new swimjigs lol
