Any recomendation for a bass guide in Orlando?, probably on Lake Toho or anything close by. I have a free day before work conference and I should probably hook into some giant FL largies before the boring speakers corporate ra ra melts my brain. Thanks for any help

Im not far from you in WNC and fish Douglas from time to time. Cherokee is a good lake and Holston is not far from you either.

Thinking the 806 with a tatula 200 should come in around $360- $440 range which is about about I had budgeted for a heavy bait setup. Would this hold up some coastal fishing in Murrells Inlet, Folly Beach, and random SC coastal inlet fishing? Not sure I can have it both ways but wishing for a swimbait rod in highland reservoirs of WNC/ East TN and some inlet fishing a few times a year.

anyone have thoughts on IROD Genesis 3 vs Omega's. Leviathian is about 100 more expensive, is it worth it for 3-5oz swim/glidebaits?

This is a great lure when fish are stingy and bite is tough. I love the LC 90 SP which might be discontinued. I fished a tournament in Febuary and the winner caught all his fish on that crank and I went out and bought 5. The next weekend I tried it out on the same lake and caught 8 when I got skunked the week before.

C Rig is one of the most effective ways to catch em in my area. Wind and Bottom cover matter but I've caught a lot of fish dragging over rocky points and peagravel banks. Also love to C rig parallel down a riprap bank or dam wall. Hookset matters with a side sweep instead of overhead hookset will catch a lot more fish. Babybrush hog, creature baits, stickbaits, flukes, trick worms, twintails... just sink that thing and let the boat do the work while staying in touch with the line. Some bites just feel mushy without a lot of action but turn out to be nice fish.

5oz would be few and far between and mainly at the coat. I mostly looking to throw 2-4oz swimbaits and glidebaits. I already have a Tatula elite cranking stick don't mind the reel seat. Shouldn't be a problem I wish.....not ready for that price

Looking for a deal on swimbait rod that can throw bigger swimbaits and possibly go to shore/inlet fishing on vacations. I'm on a budget of $200 and below. Looking at the Dobyns 795, Shimano SLX A, and Daiwa Tatula 7'9 heavy. I've read good things about IROD but never had one or held one. Thanks for any suggestions on making it a good christmas and even better spring with swimbait/glidebaits action.

I just bought the Daiwa Tatula Cork Spinning Rod 2 piece TTUL682MFS as back of the truck setup for pond and river fishing in my area but mostly to teach my kids and neighborhood kids how to fish with a simple but quaility setup. I paired it with a Legalis 2500 and will spool it with braid to floro and chop the leader for top water pond fishing. I've never had a back of the truck setup because everything has always stayed in the boat. Does anyone have any experience with the tatula 2 piece cork? I'm careful when seperating the the two pieces but putting them together I always get a little cautious I will do damage or get it stuck. Any suggestions on truck storage/protection? I was thinking about pvc or a pool noodle or something to keep it safe. Thanks

Yes I fish spooks, pop r, sammys, ploppers, sexy dawgs, gunfish etc. Not a lot of matted grass or lilly pads in the high mountain lakes around Western NC and East TN

Looking for advice on line suggestions for my Expride B. I fish lots of JB's and topwater on this rod but can't figure out a line situations that allows to switch between the two. Currently have a SLX MGL spooled with Sunline Floro and wishing I could tie a topwater on something that floats. Any suggestions other than buy a second combo?
