Thoughts On This Third Combo
I have two combos right now. 7 ft mh bc 6:4.1 with 50# power pro I use it for frogs, jigs, spinners. My second is 6 ft 6 inch med spinning rod with 30 lb power pro I use it for everything else. Considering adding a 6 ft 6 in med baitcaster for crankbaits and using the spinning rig with 6 lb mono for finesse. Thoughs? Maybe putting the 6:4.1 reel on the 6 ft 6 in pole and a 7:1.1 on the 7 ft med heavy rod

Nflology
Never in my life have I seen such poor repeated decision making from a management organization as the 49er front office. These guys are delusional and psychotic trying to run a team. Flat line stupidity to run Jim out. Worst decision ever.

Starting Up
If I went out today to start my box over I'd pick up June bug trick worms, watermelon seed Senko, and green pumpkin tubes for plastics. Hard plastics pop r in bass, spook in bone, wiggle wart, and rapala j9 split minnow. Red eye sexy shad. A white and chartreuse spinner. A black and blue jig. I could catch something anywhere with those few baits

Trouble With Top Water Lures
I think braid is too "stiff" for a top water. Try a mono leader to give it some stretch

Ok, So You're Fishing A River For Smallies. What's Your 'go To' Bait And Why?
Tubes, jerks, shallow cranks, flukes, poppers, senkos and spooks are pretty much all I throw. Maybe a spinner. Some guys like dropshot, but I've never used them. Never caught a fish on a jig, but I am still working on it. Soft creature baits are ok. The best baits fir me gave been jerkbait or tubes. I fish a shallow river religiously, and the bite is tough, but these baits are all you need.

Diawa Zillion...is It As Durable As They Come?
Cost isn't a huge concern if this thing is built to last. I figure it will last the lifetime of 4 or 5 50 dollar reels

Diawa Zillion...is It As Durable As They Come?
So I picked up a silver max for my first baitcaster and I am fully converted to baitcasters looking to invest in a good one. I want one that will last me for a long time. I am a bank beater and very hard on my gear. I was told the zillion is a tank and best bang for buck. Wanted more feedback. I am a lefty so mettle h2o is out or I'd go that route
