Senko, Pit Bosses, and Rage Craws for me For worms I like the Berkley Powerworm but I want to try out some of the ones that Rage Tail has to offer.

Academy had Chronarch 50E's on sale for $149.99, but when I came back on later to buy one they were sold out. So, I decided to get a Curado I!! This will be my first Shimano and I'm pretty darn excited.

Whichever one that the fish prefer

Academy H20 Mettle - $59.99

It's especially tough when you don't even have a scale like me, so you don't even know what a 4 or 5 pounder looks like

1. Anything except for topwaters (frogs or spooks) or heavy cover flipping. I just measure a wingspan for leader material 2. With braided backing to fluoro, just use what you normally would throw with fluorocarbon

Congrats!!!

Yes you can use mono for lures that sink. I like Trilene Big Game in 12 or 15 lb. It is also relatively inexpensive. Either way, I don't think it would matter if you used copolymer or mono. If you're using jigs with mono, you might have to step up the line size because the smaller the diameter is, the more stretch it has. I've tried to set a hook with a jig on 12 lb mono and it feels like a rubber band.

Jiggin has got it

Does anyone know what this lure is called?

$150 I'd get another Tournament Pro or Curado I... check out the auction site $200-300 I can only wish that I could get a JDM Metanium @ japanlureshop.com

Welcome to BR!

Hmm... I wonder what a white lizard will do then. May need to try that out
-
The 7' Medium Moderate is $50 and the Mettle is $60 =$110 Do you have any other fishing setups?

I'll be sweating! It's flip flops and shorts time!!

Are you talking about Rod Selection: The Basics thread? If I were to only have 3 combos I wouldn't have two rods for crankbaits, but that's just me Mine would be: 7' MH F with a 7.1:1 reel. You can throw virtually anything on this. 6'7" M F with a 6.4:1 reel for topwaters, jerkbaits, crankbaits. light texas rigs. It won't be a glass rod because I'll use mono which should help with keeping the fish pinned 6'8 MXF with a 1000 size spinning reel for shakeyheads, wacky rigs
-
Original post said $80. Personally, I would try and save up some more money and get a H20 Ethos and H20 Mettle on sale. Are there any other rods and reels that you currently have? I'm sure you could make crankbaits work on that in pinch.

"Nonconformist"... now that's an understatement
-
Arky is the most versatile, but if you're fishing rocks pick up a couple of football jigs too.

Black and blue, a brown, and a green.

I'll send you the link in a PM
