woolleyfooley

Ah, ok! I saw LW and thought Levelwind but then figured since these reels don’t have a LW it meant something else. My mistake!

Think a spunk shad would work well on a scrounger?

I use the 745 for 3/8oz jigs and T-rigs all the time and it’s great for that application.

What does LW stand for when you say “it lays a tight LW”? So as you’re reeling in you have to push the line left to right like a levelwind would?

Really? I used to love lucky craft pointers and other baits and thought the paint was great. It’s been several years since I’ve purchased one though, so maybe things have changed.

What rods are those in your post? Also, I’d say if the okuma guys are reading this or if @Glenn can tell them, they should expand the x series line and add a BFS rod or two!

What would be the better choices you would use?

I love the G-man. He’s a hoot!

Have you checked the guides yet? Also check the levelwind.

People here seem to be liking the new st. Croix gxr combos. I think you could get two for $300.

Life sucks.

Really funny timing. I just saw this video pop up on YouTube. Is he a member here?

Yes but straightening fluke tails with a pot of water or on a hot dashboard is a rite of passage. 😁

If you need to get rid of any tackle I’m happy to accept donations!

Dang. Hope you can get it worked out. Do they owe for advertising? If you don’t mind me asking of course.

I just use whatever app comes installed from apple on my iPhone. It’s actually really accurate. It shows radar and will tell you “rain will start in 10 minutes” etc and it’s almost always right!

I guess you missed my thread? 🙂 I’m very curious to see what happens. I agree with most that the new price point is absolutely insane. I don’t see them selling well. The question is, do they lower the price after the decrease in demand? Or do they discontinue them? I’m guessing the latter.

That’s pretty neat. What brand is it?

Good to know! I wish st. Croix would sell the rod separately without the reel. I fish left handed retrieve baitcasters.

Very nice! What color is that jig in the OP? I like it!

It’s too dang hot down here! Thanks for the article!

Are they still hand poured?

Ah, that’s too bad. Well, welcome WRB-2.0! 🙂

So forgive me for interrupting the OP’s thread but I wanted to ask a question regarding frog rods without starting a whole new thread. When you use a rod rated for 1/2oz and up do you ever have trouble getting good casting distance with hollow body frogs and horny toad type baits given how relatively light they are?

Where can I find a steez AGS from Japan? I’ve looked and I can’t find it. Yeah. Seems the new rods don’t have issues with the AGS guides being fragile. Tariff rate with China is currently 30%. It used to be around 21-22%.
