what kind of worms were they?mine bunch up but straighten right out when removed from the boxes.i use zoom,berkley ,yamoto and yum.

cabela's tackle bags are the best.they come in 3 different sizes.i use the super magnum.get plano boxes for it.the cabela's boxes warp with soft plastics. http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20166-cat20327_TGP&id=0036306120772a&navCount=2&podId=0036306&parentId=cat20327&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IG&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat20327&hasJS=true

a pflueger summit reel and a johnny morris 7-6 flipping stick

Just got the Ricky Clunn b/c it was on a big sale and Dodgeguy said it was made by Pflueger so thats good enough for me to take to the Fork. Someday I hope to own a Trion or President but now this is what I can afford and Im gratreful for that and Dodgeguy has always led me right Thanks DG 8-) you are welcome.i just give my honest opinions.btw,just got my 2nd rc reel today.make sure you oil it.i oil all new reels before i use them.

per tackle tour they are.

that would depend on how you look at it.let's say you spend $300 on a reel it lasts 10 years = $30 a year cost.let's say you spend $99 on a reel and it lasts 5 years = $20 a year.lets say you buy a rick clunn on sale for $69 and it last 5 years = $13.8 a year.i have 3 trion round reels that are 5 years old and have only had normal lube jobs.they cost $89 each and are as good as new.

i don't think the red will be as easy to see as the yellow.iwouldjust color the end of your yellow with a red permanent marker.

out of curiousity what is the big deal with sending them to bps for service.either guys do it themselves or send them somewhere so what difference does it make where you send them as long as they are done right?

15 feet is where red turns grey/black totally.the line doesn't dissapear.it turns greyish black thus camoflaging the line in all but the clearest water.some people think red attracts bites in shallow water.this is where your red hook theory comes in.red hooks on a deep crank do nothing but turn grey/black.i am coloring the faded ends of my sufix braid red with a permanent marker next year to try it out.

i would put the johnny morris rod up there with any of them.

you mean exspensive.besides i've gone 5 trips without having to retie my snap to the braid.it saves a lot of line.it makes it easier to change lures which is a plus when you can only have 6 rods on a rowboat.

the only berkley bait i use is a powerworm.zoom znd yum for most plastics.

nope,just smallies.

go on ebay and check out all the antique shakespeare and pflueger reels they have on there site.

this was caught hopping a 1 oz. krocodile silver spoon on the bottom in 50 feet of water.

bps rods are great.i have a rick clunn baitcaster but i haven't owned it long enough to give a review.i will tell you i did order another one.the johnny morris and rick clunn reels are both made by pflueger and i love pflueger.

i use berkley cross lock snaps size 3 which are 60 lb test.you aren't breaking these snaps.i use them on everything.iuse sufix braid and don't want to be cutting it off.using snaps makes braid last forever.i have found no decrease in catch rates due to use of braid and snaps.the fish could care less. to texas rigg i use a jobee pro hook. to shakey head i clip on a shakey head jig

true as can be.i would never buy a graphite frame reel.get a medalist or the new supreme magnesium frame (you should not let salt get on magnesium frames) when it comes out. http://www.pfluegerfishing.com/products/products.php?p=9

6-6m or mh.

rapala dt16 and a rattlin rapala 1/2 oz. both in shad pattern.

it's more likely to get busted in the trunk where you forget about it.get a 1 piece and just be carefull with it,i drive a hyundai accent and fit rods up to 6-10 in it with no problem.

on a deep diver i clip to the split ring.if you don't have a split ring clipping it with a big lip can be a pain.on a lipless crank or jerkbait/crankbait with a small lip i remove the split ring.

if i could only have 2 rods it would be a 6-6 mh johnny morris signature series and a 7-6 johnny morris flipping stick with pflueger summit reels on each both spooled with 65 lb suffix braid.my top 5 lures would be as follows. 1)10 inch power worm 2)1/2 oz. booyah black/red jig and trailer 3)1/2 oz.rattlin rapala in shad pattern 4)3/8 booyah white spinnerbait with double willow blades 5)5 inch senko

pflueger summit. or supreme

he obviously had no clue how to set up a reel.any good salesman who is trying to sell a newbie a baitcaster would set it up right so it wouldn't backlash at all.
