You can send in the pieces you want done for example... Drag star.. Cast control cap etc.. Spools even I think.... Basic aluminum anodizing In some really cool colors...www.hawgtech.com They are supernice people and do really good work.. They sell carbon handles and abec7 bearings.... Scott

So far seems as shimano is still getting the nod Anyone else?

Yea I agree with Raul on this.... You could do You're reel body... But for metal parts anodizing Will be perfect.... Hawg tech does this work and They are reasonable.... Having many colors avail. Good luck

ROFLMAO!!! Yea probably!

I am interested in the dependability factor here.. I know shimanos are great casters, I haven't had Great luck with dependability... So what reels are Holding up very well? I am looking @ 1000 and or a bigger/ size if its light.. Eg.. Magnesium etc.. What has you're recent (2 years or less) experience shown at the 200$ and 100$ range.

Yes Sir those reels are really good! Glad to hear you are pleased... Always nice to have good feedback. I love mine too... Since you don't wanna use you're Imx...??? I will do it.. Just send it to me... I will be-grudgingly use it! Lol!!!

Yep... I agree with this wholeheartedly .

Also give the zoom Fluke stick a try..... It's my new fave over GYCB....25percent off right now At BPS.... Making 10 per bag at 3.25$ and it's A very, very good bait... Still keeping a couple Bags of Senko around... For dire straits !!

Buy what you're happy with.... The advice above Is sound from all view points being covered. It is still up to you and you're budget..love of the sport,etc...

Yea... American Legacy Fishing Company was Showing a couple of Lefties on their Website A couple days ago.....they are showing up... Slow.. Like molasses in the winter time! They are selling very fast too! Good luck... I am enjoying mine!

You guys catching them good? Come on... Post ur smallies picture.. Geez... I sure *** you Guys right now! Water levels up? If you all get time....post some feedback.Have fun... Iam going to the Kentucky Derby!

Yea... Go with you're choice on ugly sticks.... Maybe they work up to a better rod and reel Later... But at that age? Yea... Go Ugly!!

That's absolutely true ! Do business with them a bunch! A great company!

Yes... These are very effective baits, absolutely !! Drop shot Plastic Gill imitators works well too... Thanks for the tip on where to get these.. They can be hard to find!!

Exactly This!!!

I am a big time Larry Bird fan..... Hummm..

Yes Sir... That's a sweet rod right there!

I've been using a clear/blue fluorescent line for 30 years.... Lots and lots of big fish... Try P-line CX Premium it's a co-poly... I like it from say 10 to 20 pound... Lighter than that breaks a little too easy for me... Sure makes line watching easier! Change pretty often...(line) and you're good to go!

Oh yea!.... Be sure to trust the FDA ! Yea right ... That's the last thing I would consider in making a Decision on food safety!!! Good luck there

Iam getting ready to soak a couple spool bearings After replacing them with A7's.... So I wanna ask Can I just air dry them? Got no compressed air... No dremel tool... Nothing but simple green and dawn... Can I use dawn? It's a d**n good degreaser.. How bout putting in the oven at 120degrees or so? Anyone?

I simply don't believe a largemouth or bronze back are smart fish.... I enjoy fishing for many Species... Mostly freshwater big and smallmouth. This is true... In mid 90's on Ky. Lake in a yellow Gambler... Sneaking into a great bigger fish hangout.... I saw a bit of water disturbance about 150 yards out..... Easing closer, I saw a very Unreal sight... A 5 pound largemouth... With a 5 pound smallmouth... Stuck in its mouth... I still can't understand how these events can happen. Smallie was dead and largemouth d**n near... Unbelievable? Nope it happened... Point?.... Largemouth are not smart, per say.. Just a primitive creature running on a pea size brain. No need to be superstitious unless you just want! Don't over think it... It's not as hard as it seems

Bill Dance is the Godfather of bass fishing media! He's very smart and fishing on private lakes, ponds,etc is just plain smart! The man is a legend!!

Ok... I know what I want to say?.....but I might get Another warning! So I won't!

Nice job!

Trucks just ain't what they use to be....oh lord!
