  1. I replaced bearings with boca orange seals in my used 103h. I noticed that freespool is 7 to 8 seconds. Didn't think to test beforehand but it seems like it shoulder be longer. What are yall experiences? Is mine abnormal?
  2. My 7'7" tatula should be here today. Just need to order another reel, pliers, soft plastics, jigs, sunglass retainer, rod sock, couple crankbaits, umbrella rig, buzzbait, 20 lb line, and on and on and on. It's getting out of hand
  3. I considered one before going with okuma tcs. Let me know what it's like
  4. What's the largest reel handle yall are comfortable with for bass fishing? I want a tatula hd that has a 100mm handle but I'm considering putting the lexa 400 120mm handle on it for swimbaits and punching and taking the stock handle and putting it on my t3 1016 to take it from 80 to 100mm.
  5. I'm not going by what the website or package says, just his interview with the bait. I never found the newer wiggle warts to hunt much either but the two have very similar profiles.
  6. If you want expensive flouro to sit unused in a tight coil and go to waste go for it. If you ever use the flouro near bottom of your spool then you are killing your inches per turn. Buy cheap braid or mono and put 80 or 90 yards of flouro on top. You can't cast that far and it gives you room for quite a few lure changes. And if you overrun, you don't have to dig through as much line. Also the line will have less memory due to laying in a larger diameter.
  7. He meant, than tecklewerehouse
  8. Just ordered the 771 for cranks. Hope the action is similar to my okuma tcs apc rod.
  9. Mike said they've been in development for a couple of years and that he wasn't going for a wiggle wart action. He wanted something with similar profile that deflects off rocks like a champ
  10. I have a first gen frontier. Going up a steep grade on interstate is difficult with nothing in the truck...add a boat and I'll be limping.
  11. I've seen the stuff destroy ink in slacks.
  12. I got one. Ice is in though. Has a real subtle knock to it.
  13. They are terrible I'll give you 7 a piece for them.
  14. 3 oz egg sinker (<$1) and heavy duty snap swivel (~$1) Thank me later
  15. Mon valley bassmasters
  16. Hey guys, I've never been in a club before and I've been invited to a meeting for a club tomorrow to meet the guys (15 or 20). They will be voting on my membership. What advice (be myself) can yall give me? I'm sure acting like I'm Ike would go over well.
  17. I want a diesel colorado for towing. My frontier won't make it. Colorado is supposed to get 35+mpg. How that translates to towing I dunno. Has a ton of torque though 350 plus I think.
  18. Revenge viberators. Can hook the trailer weedless and it hunts
  19. I just got a sh too. So smooth. I think they may be discontinued and are moving to ex. Can't find the sh except auction and discount sights. Probably why they are cheap.
  20. I will try japan tackle. Being treated like a fool by ogawa on plat.co.jp is disenchanting. Maybe it's the language barrier but him stating they don't ship parts and that I needed to show him a Japanese store that would made me mad.
