  1. thanks dude.that's a nice one in your avatar.
  2. if you're gonna fish with eva buy an ugly stick and match the rest of the rod to it.cork rules.
  3. titicus 7-16-11 fished titicus with lp today from 2 pm to 10 pm.it was very slow with only 1 picture worthy fish.i nailed a 5-11 on a 10 inch power worm.all 3 of my fish were on the worm.the other 2 were 2.5 each.leigh caught a bunch of cookie cutters on a senko.water temps were 85 to 87 degrees.marty was right as all fish were caught in deep weeds.it takes a lot of patience summer fishing in this hot weather.i had to go late because i worked in the morning.
  4. 832 sinks very slowly.can still be used with topwaters.i love the line the more i use it.
  5. except for the spinning reels that bound up when wet that they refused to fix.
  6. get the lp.it's lighter and smaller.you don't need more line thn it holds.
  7. i don't know about vicious but tuff line xp is severely rough and outdated.spend your money on sufix 832 and be done with it.
  8. i feel the way about diawa reels.
  9. anything made here will cost more.maybe if we had kept building things here we would have jobs.
  10. have a supreme xt that i love.xt has a better drag.
  11. that model is last years.
  12. it's braid and you can use it with anything.mono will give you coiling issues where braid won't.
  13. get 10 pound test and learn to tie a palomar knot.cut with fiskars kids scissors.on a spinning rod this will be the most trouble free line.close the bail manually and lift th rod tip to get the slack out before reeling in.this will stop spinning reel birds nests.
  14. i use a full spool of braid except 4 electrical tape backing.
  15. or just can the leader.i don't believe line visisbility causes less bites.i've fished next to guys with flouro in clear water and outfished them with straight braid.i've had it go the other way also.it's a matter of your bait being in front of biting fish.leaders mean more knots and more places to fail.i hate when they go through the guides.the only concession i make at all to line visibility is to color the last 6 feet of the braid black.this makes it harder to see.
  16. i guess you missed my post about it.
  17. i couldn't think of a more useless time to use a leader.you're fishingin heavy weeds = line visibilty means nothing.
  18. what kind of guides are on it?what model is it?
