Greetings!

How are you liking the knobs on the T3 air? Been eying one, but the knobs look a little scrawny.

Sufix 832 is the best braid overall.

They're OK jigs. Not the greatest, but they will still catch fish.

That tiny rattle trap looks great!

Fall is crankin' season for me.

Tie between an old frog coloured skitter pop with all the paint torn off and a black jitterbug.

I catch some big one ps on 1/2oz hair jigs and big prop baits. They definitely are not shy.

For some reason they are just not biting the worm right now. Most of my fish are coming on rage craws and chigger craws.

Yep, the 7'1" will be the most versatile.

If you can afford an ET smallmouth I would go with that.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I already have a couple of avids that I use for everything you would use on a spinning rod except for dropshots. I don't feel like either of them have the right action, so I am looking at a more dropshot specific model. I also prefer longer rods, which is why I was looking at the 7'6". I will definitely consider that model in the future for a shaky head specific rod though.

sick deal

I am looking at going big and getting a Legemd Elite 7'6" ML power XF action to use for dropshots. Was wondering about the overall performance of this rod. I will most likely be pairing it with a stradic CI4 and 10lb braid. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I love those jigs.

A 1/4oz ball head jig and...... wait for it......... A 4" black Mr Twister.

Chronarch 50e, Chronarch CI4+, Core feels very nice as well, haven't used it though.

Bahamas for bones St Clair for muskies and smallies Florida for Tarpon Alaska for salmon Skagit river for steelhead

HA!

Topwaters, finesse jigs, weightless worms would all work on that rod. As for the reel, I don't think you can beat a 50 size Shimano. I can't really comment on line, but hopefully someone else will chime in with their recommendations on that.

Just got back from the trip. On the last day, I caught a 20'' walleye, which was pretty cool, and a big crappie. Most of the fish were caught ripping hair jigs through weed beds, but I caught a couple on topwaters and punching. Some guys fishing beside us hooked and landed an 8lb largemouth on a spinnerbait, which was the biggest bass I have ever seen.The fish were on fire, and I had a blast.

Ballistic 2500SH Procyon 2500SH Stradic FJ 2500 Stradic CI4+ 2500 Supreme XT 30 Patriarch 30 Supreme 30 My top pick would be the Ballistic 2500SH.

I may look into that. I prefer a longer handle for most of my fishing, and my only complaint about the CI4 was the handle.

Nice picture! Great looking reel too.
