Heading out to the river this later tius afternoon...any new reports since the water temperature went up these past couple of days

Look on ebay. I just got the Tournament Pro today for $100. Cant beat that deal, that's for sure. Plus not a lot of people are bidding on them right now, so jump on it quick.

I ended up getting the 641 since ill be throwin more shallow cranks than DD

Well guys i got a hell of deal today and got a Lews tournament pro for 110...know just have to get the rod and hit the water

Hey yall just joined the forum today. I fish the occoquan all the time. Haven t been this year but might head out tomorrow and use the new kayak. Seems like everyone is saying that there still sittin pretty deep.

I live in walking distance of royal lake and I'm out there all the time when I'm not at the Occoquan. There are some good bass there but its extremely over fished. Once you figure out the honey holes though its hard to get skunked. Its public and you don't have to worry about people telling you to leave. Theres plenty of cats there too, my dad has caught a good 20 pounder just using a worm and bobber. Also check out "The Ponds" in Burke, I haven't fished there for a couple of years but I pulled my biggest bass out of one of them.

I will definitely look into what y'all are saying. Again thanks for the responses everyone. Fish, Pray, Love, you seem to really know what your talking about and both of your comments really helped. Thanks

Thanks guys for the responses. I really cant afford know more than a 175 dollar setup. I pretty much decided last week that I was going to get the BPS crankin stick, and from what yall saying it sounds like the right choice for me right now. From what I read and from what yall said sounds like instead of the 6'6 I need to get the 7' MH. As for the reel, this is where I cant decide. I really like the revo winch but its out of my price range unless I can win a bid on ebay for a good deal. I have also been lookin hard at the lews speed spoil and see it has some very good reviews and I like the curado too. Just cant decide which one to get.

Hey everyone first post on here. Im looking to get a rod and reel for just crankbaits since I fish them about 80% of the time. I am in college so I do have a budget on what I can afford. I mostly throw KVD square bills 1.5s, DT6's, DT10's, and red eyes. I'm thinkin about gettin a reel in a 5.4.1. and a 6'6 rod. What yall reccomend?
