  1. powell has a new cork diesel series according to facebook page. still 69.99. looks pretty sweet
  2. thats what these are. says "pork fat cooked in" on package. got em at TW
  3. anyone use these? tried out a couple today and caught a couple decent bass within a few minutes before the rain came and cut my trip short. seems to have really strong tail action
  4. whats the best hook for texas rigs plastics,flukes,etc? i have some bps xps that are working fine but im almost out and was wondering what do u guys use? ive been reading that the gamakatsu bend or break easy. are the Owner hooks worth checking out? or Mustad?
  5. o i was thinkn it was a fuji reel seat
  6. all i know is its a TS. i like the look of it and the split grip but ill probably stick with what i got
  7. how good are the kistler magnesiums? is it a better rod than the older cork shimano crucial?
  8. i always visited there with my folks as a kid a couple times a year. remember seeing folks fishing there by christus gardens and some parts downtown. some huge hotel and the haunted mansion maybe. would like to plan a trip back soon and maybe do a little fishing myself
  9. ...this is making me wanna buy another reel now
  10. yeah its harder to decide on a freakin rod. ive got 2 reels sitn on my shelf in need of a rod
  11. heck i used a $40 bps graphite series rod with a bps tournament reel for a cpl years. upgraded to some some better equipment so far this year - lew,curado E's and I's, a couple Powell rods,etc.
  12. zayta? is that suposed to be a step above the champ extreme?
  13. is my rod too stout? should i look into a medium power rod for these?
  14. zoom salty super fluke i think is what theyre called. ill check the bag when i get home
  15. id rather buy a used E series citica than a new G series. a used citica 200e can be found for 70-80bucks usually
  16. anyone notice these on TW? the spinning rod won editors choice in OutdoorLife magazine. a few months ago they were like 135 for the casting rod now the price has increased to 164. they have some of cast distance increasing guide on them supposedly. havent heard much about em was just wondering if anyone has looked into em
  17. stay away from G series. look at the E series or the new Curado I
  18. no its a casting rod. 6'6 medium heavy cork crucial. im probably just yanking too soon or something. ill try again this evening
  19. well the waters been a little clearer at my pond i know at least 3 bass took it and i couldnt get a hookset. could hav been some bluegills on some of the bites tho.
  20. i just recently started trying out flukes. im getting quite a few bites but i cant get a good hookset im always pulling the bait out of its mouth. ive got it texas rigged with a 4/0 wide gap hook. does the end of the hook need to be stuck completely through the bait?
  21. if i was to buy a bps reel itd be the PQ. the citica d or e series are solid proven reels
  22. its worth the wait tho man that is one sweet reel. how many did u order. ? ive got one on my worm rod but thinking about replacing a couple other reels with the I
