johnny morris signature series.

or you could do what i do.when the fish are in a funk i run and gun and try for reaction strikes from fish that want to bite.i have much better luck with this then wasting time on fish with lockjaw.

boo-yah!!!

love the sure sets.

get it replaced and sell it.then buy a bps johnny morris signature series with top of the line fuji titanium framed sic guides.they are the best guides made imho.

get a pflueger patriarch.

65 lb

i would switch to all the same brand/model rods and reels with the only difference being rod lengths/actions and gear ratio.this would keep everything feeling almost equal and be one less thing you have to adjust 2.i use all johnny morris signature series with pflueger reels.all my rods are 6-6 mh except my 7-6 h flipping stick.

like they said,check your guides etc.. then spool up some 50 lb fireline braid.

almost anything.

listen to reel mechanic.

tighten your drag.check it before you cast.you aren't getting that fish again.

i agree totally.i lean towards the signature series because i like full grips and feel the titanium fuji sic guides are the best made.both series are great.

bps johnny morris signature series .

pflueger trion narrow spool

i would spend $99 AND GET A PFLUEGER TRION NARROW SPOOL.never buy a reel with a graphite frame.

i would go with a pflueger president.

get a pflueger.i've owned both and pfluegers are better.get a president , patriarch or patriarch xt.

pflueger medalist ,supreme or supreme xt.

Dodgeguy you are not the man I want negotiating peace in the middle east, but you were right. You have the courage of your convictions and that is too rare a thing.

i find usually when one works the other doesn't.

i've played with the supreme xt at cabela's.i thought it was really awesome.time will tell.my medalist is 4 seasons old and now my daughter gets it.

as far as bails go i think quantum has the best idea yet with thier magnetic bail trip.no spring to ever break.
