It appears the Man O War may be just what the doctor ordered. I was hoping for Smith Chief but these may work out better. Thanks.

I am looking to buy some high end polarized sun glasses. I have read reviews here and on many other sites. My problem is I have a large head and after going to Gander MTN they had NOTHING that would fit this melon. Finding "accurate" size information on line is not impossible but difficult to say the least. Anyone have a good suggestion as far as brand/model and where to find good sizing information? TIA, J

This rod: http://www.basspro.com/St-Croix-Triumph-Series-Spinning-Rods/product/103653/ This reel: http://http://www.basspro.com/Pflueger-President-6900-Series-Spinning-Reels/product/10213341/ Get the 6935 I have this set up and it is excellent. IMHO the best $150 you can spend on a spinning rig.

I fish 3 ponds in the Canandaigua area, all on private property. I have caught some slobs in all 3 waters. I catch consistently larger fish with jigs and trailers. Find a color that works and you will do well. However, the largest LMB I ever caught out of any of these ponds was on a 1/4 oz Mepps Comet. I can only guess the weight but the owner of the pond told me it was the largest he had ever seen caught out of this particular pond and he has been fishing it for 20+ years. Like I said I can only guess at the weight but it was in the 7lb range. Believe it or not, my daughter caught a 5+ pounder on a piece of HOT DOG out of the same pond. She was about 11 years old and didn't want to bait the hook to catch sunnies. When I stopped at the store to buy her some "bait" she gave me a very odd look but I told her just wait and see. Sure enough, she put a 1" chunk on the hook with a bobber and tossed it into the pond. Less than 30 seconds later she was in her glory trying to reel it in on my custom built ultra light. It was hilarious. But she did catch the largest fish of the day.

Any advice on good places to go on the canal to fish from shore? I went with a friend of mine many years ago and we killed walleye. I believe it was near the old Mobile Chemical near 350 and 31.

I too fish the lagoon. There are some real SLOBS in there. I need to ask, where is the good bank fishing on Honeoye? Or better to ask where is the access? I have never fished Honeoye from shore, boat only.

I own two. A 6935 and a 6930. The best $100 I have ever spent on spinning reels.
