Hooks While Traveling
You have to put them in your suitcase in a sucred cas (Plano Box) and then have your suitcase checked. I flew to FL for the holidays and made a trip to kissimmee and these were the standards

Curado G
I never disliked them I was just disapointed in them. The E was like owning a ferrari and the G was like a camaro. It was still a good reel but coming down from ferrari quality to camaro quality was just disapointing and took a lot of time to get use to the "downgrade"

How To Verify A Record And Keep It Alive?
You could use a coleman cooler with an aerator. That how I kept bait alive when I fished saltwater and had to transport bait.

Love The Summer Bite
I love summer as well. It seems I get more quality in the summer but more quantity in the fall.

Line In Larger Spools
Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't 10lb CXX have a breaking strength of 22lbs? I use to use CXX but it had a little to much memory for my liking

Line Conditioner
I would stay away from Reel Magic. From what i've heard Reel Magic actualy breaks down the line instead of protecting it. Besides KVD line and lure is the best conditioner out there and it is cheaper than Reel Magic. And yes it does make a huge difference with KVD Line and lure i've had fluoro last an entire year on my reel before needing it to be changed where as I was changing it monthly.

Chronarch Ci4 Reviews And Opinions
I have two Curado i and one Chronarch CI4 i like the CI4 a tad bit better because it is lighter, and handles lighter baits a little better. But do I like it $100 more? The answer is no, for me at least, I think the Curado I is the best bang for your buck

Jig Rod Question

Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
I forgot to post the pics of the 7 xr50's I bought as well. Oh well. I started playing with the LTB and told myself I need a rod to pair my Curado with and since it was made for jerkbaits why not pick up some LC pointers. I lost control after that....
