That sucks ,I hope he never trips on his dock and fall in.

How's it going JB ? I'm no KVD but can hold my own on the water. I think everyone here struggles with that question from time to time. I think we all fish a bait to long even when the fish gives us signs that they want something else( following the bait or short strikes) and sometimes we give in to early. I've LEarned also it's not the bait or color sometimes it's our retrieve. The final judge is and always will be the fish and remember like us humans somedays they just don't wanna cooperate,no matter what. Hard baits vs soft I feel it matters if the fish are in the mood for something fast or very slow it still boils down to what are you willing to do to catch a fish, will you keep changing baits until you find that lure or are you just stubborn enough to waste a day fishing the same lure and never get to the bottom of your tackle box. Have you ever looked through your box and seen all those lures you never or hardly used... Well that's what I use those days for when they aren't biting and I don't feel like changing lures all day i tie on something I don't use much or not that good at( deep cranking ) and a secret when all else fells and I don't wanna go home I catch me a little blue gill get a bobber now it's hard for mister large mouth to say no to that. Just my 2 cents JB ...Tight lines BUDDY

You know back in the day I had really bad experiences with pinnacle. When I see their stuff at other websites I don't even look that way not even if it was a fire sale. I'm looking for 1 more combo for cranking I'm thinking about spending 300 maybe a little more, after reading your review I....... Might.....look at pinnacle ...can't believe I just said that. But you guys haven't steered me wrong yet thanks for the review

Welcome !!!J Bass, I'm glad you found us.

hey thanks that was the other problem ( which line to use ) Thank you guys again...

Thanks for your help

Hello I'm new to using baitcasters and the chronarch 200 e6 was my first buy ...I love it smooth tough my friends get hold of it and it's hard to get it back from them.

Hello fellow bass hunters I need some help putting my baitcaster set-ups together. I have 3 reels and 3 rods and I'm a bit lost on which way to go. I wanted 1 for worming 1 for crankbaits and top water 1 for frogs, jigs. now I'm kinda new to baitcasters so ease me in or keep it simple for me please. my 3 reels are 1) shimano chronarch 200e6 ratio 6.5.1 2) pflueger patriarch ratio 7.9.1 3) johnny morris sig. Ratio 6.4.1 ....the rods 1) 7'2 johnny Morris sig.2 med fast 2) 7'6 johnny Morris sig. 2 heavy xtra fast 3) 7' carbonlite med.heavy fast also I got 50 lb braid 12and 15lb floro and 10 lb mono I have some nice spinning rod and reels I'm using just for bass fishing .i have med.lite and 2 med. heavy. My plan is to have a technique specific combos 3 spinning and 3 baitcaster to cover these Florida waters,your advise,time is really greatly appreciated Thank you so much

same here, I've always done it on spinning gear tried it on a baitercaster,well it didn't feel like I was fishing everything felt off. I tore it off put on a shallow crankbait now for me it's done on spinning gear

I just ordered a phlueger pat. I think it's a 7:9 ratio I hope it's good

I fell in love with my bps carbonlite rods I have 4 for my birthday my wife got me the bps johnny Morris sig. Rod and reel.WOW it was great its a little lighter than the carbonlite which is already pretty light, so if you're looking for a nice rod check them both out. I have the casting and spinning. The carbonlites are on sell for 79.00 they're well worth it

Hey how you doing I know it's late to answer this topic but I have 4 carbonlites 3 spinning and 1 baitcaster with a shimano chronarch I got a Johnny Morris sig. Baitcaster combo ( reel and rod ) for my birthday will be here wed 5-28-13 I have a lake in back yard I'll let you know that night

Don't worry the next day I came to my senses and my lovely wife points out that I still had the biggest bass caught in Florida for about 7 years 17lbs in my backyard. I mean 50 ft.from my back porch. On a helicopter lure ya'll remember that junk lol.

I love spinning tackle I just wanted to play with ya'll big boys now I see.... Just cause you got the toys don't mean you can play. I felt like the guy who trolls deep diving crankbaits in the shallows......stupid hooks lol.

I know it's me and man this stuff is tough I'm going to use that electrical tape trick

no I'm hurting 20 bucks of line gone in 3 casts

Hey everyone guess what I just some of the best line ever, man it's awesome !!!!!! I put it on my reel a chronarch e6 the line you ask it's suffix 832 superline. I got the 40lb first cast I mean WoW 60 yards easy second cast a little longer third cast ....$&@;:/-@&$;:/-/:;$();$/&/&-@- this is not a birds nest ,,,this is a catchers mitt it's soooooooo deep my kids are on the ground laughing my oldest girl tells the youngest,( put the rod down and walk away).

Hello everyone I went to bass pro to buy my first baitcaster. I only wanted to spend about $150.00 for a combo for some reason I believe you should at least buy middle ground stuff when starting out. The young man must have seen me coming before I know it I have a medium heavy 7 ft. Carbonlite rod and a shimano chronarch E6 he put 12 pound mono on it while I learn to cast. Today I'm casting pretty good no backlashes so my question is what type of bass fishing would I use this setup for I tried drop shotting but the rod seems to stiff and should I keep mono on this. Long story short It cost me 300 dollars for the set up I love it I just need help how would you use this combo thank you very much
