Kidflex

just send it in the a warranty fom filled out. No questions asked. include the required return postage. It might take a week or 2 but its cheaper than going the expeditor route. Ive done this with a couple of old imx and glx rods.

wannabe rockstar here. Been playing for 30 years. i should be a lot better than i am but i enjoy making noise with my buddies

Cheap components. Poor customer service. The MBR rods are not like the gloomis MBR series, these are more for heavier use.

Try owner hooks. Never had a problem with fish coming unbuttoned with them. I have noticed with Trojan hooks is that they make a large hole from the hook and fish come off easier. Stopped using them for that reason and they tear up plastics of rigged weedless

If your really concerned about a bass bleeding then you shouldn’t be fishing.

4 inches in rod length won’t give you a noticeable difference in distance.

Get the 853. Can use it for all of them. Don’t need to cast to the other side of the lake. Your hook sets won’t be that effective.

Hammer 7’3” heavy. Perfect handle length for kayak. Great overall heavy rod. Light as any comparable nrx. And you’ll save a bunch of money. You could get the heavy and extra heavy version for your price point

Flukes and weightless trick worms. If they don’t bite these then fish elsewhere....

Use an anchor for your kayak. You’ll be able to work an area throughly with bottom contact baits. You’ll also be able to work your crankbaits more effectively.

Push the insert back in, put a small bead of epoxy around the insert and frame ensuring the inside of the insert is free of epoxy. It should hold fine after that, unless the tip frame is cracked.

Best bang for the buck- yozuri 3db best overall- yellow magic.

Cortland masterbraid and the 16 strand braid are excellent lines. I’ve used them for years fishing in saltwater(inshore/offshore). Great quality and strong.

I have all 3 reels and they will do everything the others will do just fine. I use the bantam for jigs and heavier Texas rigs. The metanium for light t rigs and senko/fluke applications. And the curado for moving baits.

I believe there are in all stages of the spawn. Some on beds, some starting to make beds. Some already guarding. And definitely bass still waiting to move up. I’m just thankful for the ones that bite. I’ve seen a lot of beds with fish on it recently, but those wouldn’t bite and I didn’t spend much time with them. The females that did bite where probably on beds that I couldn’t see.

The nrx 853c has slightly less backbone than the glx 853. the glx 853jwr is an almost the perfect rod imo. Can work 3/8 jigs effortlessly. But since you want a do it all rod id say go with the glx mbr844. Now that is the perfect rod.

Try using braided line, those red eye Shad hooks usually bend out fairly easy with 30lb braid. Might save you a few bucks

the type of surf casting you plan on doing will dictate the equipment needed. If your casting in the surf for smaller fish any medium rod will work using spoons, small plugs or small pieces of shrimp or cut bait. If your looking to get past the breakers you need a longer surf rod. I use 10 to 12’6 rods with 3-8oz +bait depending on conditions. A simple 3 way swivel rig is an easy start. I’ll typically use a lighter line to secure the weight to break off in case it gets hung up(location dependent). I prefer using a weight with copper wires to dig into the sand better and an 8/0-12/0 circle hook with a big piece of mullet. Any 6500 abu, penn mag 525, Daiwa sealine 20-50 size reel will be perfect.

Any cheap leather gardening gloves from the dollar store will work.

Medium/heavy with either mono or braid

I just had that happen on my 115 Mercury. Got the lower unit in some clay, as I was trimming up and trying to get out of the shallow water I noticed the tell tale not putting out water. Luckily I was not too far from the launch. At home, I put a pair of muffs attached to the water hose and ran water through it for about 10 minutes. Water finally started trickling out and when I turned on the motor it was working properly. If this didn’t work I was going to check the impeller next.

It’s a great reel

For stand up style I like the spot remover pro model and everything else I like the owner ultra football heads. Weight will vary depending on depth and wind

I’d go with 30-50lb braid.

Quantum on the vengeance stradic on the mojo preeident on the field and stream get a good medium heavy fast action rod for that revo rocket!
