  1. I have one baitcasting set up. I will need at least 2 more for different teqniques. The rest of my rods will stay spinning for now. I need 1 for plipping n pitching which is the combo i already have. I need another one for punching and 1 for frogs. Budget of about 200 each combo For punching im lookjng at the lighting rod 7'6 heavy. Anybody have that rod?
  2. I dont think i could ever stop using spinning gear but im gonna be using a casting gear a lot more. Just as reference, for punching i use a 7'3 heavy action spinning rod with a 4000 reel. Caught hundreds of fish with that set up but it is very heavy and tiring. Im gonna replace that set up with a casting rig. By the way that lightning rod is not a bad rod.
  3. Ive always been a all spinning type of guy. I flip, punch, topwater, and crank with spinning gear. Well last week my girl gifted me a 7ft berkley lightning rod and a 2016 shimano caenan, i wasnt too excited but i decided to take it with me on a fishing trip today. It changed my whole perspective on baitcastin gear, it made flipping and punching 100% easier. I feel like i was way more efficient with my casting and i was more accurate. Im a beleiver now. That being said, bait monkey has me by the throat and i need some new reels.
  4. Maxcuatro is hands down the best. And ive tried every braid in the market. In my opinion anyways
  5. I lost mine in a tree, i was real mad! I should of lost it in the garbage. I rather throw away 13 dollars than have that bait use up space in my tackle box
  6. What test and what type of line? I suspect it had something to do with drag
  7. My favorite line of rods, i have a mh spinning with the tiny little grip. Love it.
  8. If you are using braid you may have line digging in
  9. I was gonna say the same thing, berkley lightning rod medium
  10. Ill take some avocados please
  11. Weightless senkos are too heavy for a ml
  12. Thats what i thought lol, he probably got a sponsor now
  13. I really want that reel, but i cant find a left hand version. I tried contacting pflueger and t-warehouse but no reply. Any one know if they are going to make them or is the righty the only version avaliable?
  14. Use it man, put aome 20lb braid on it. It will cast a mile, i use 4000 reels on all my rods and i dont have any problems. And i find the drag to be better on bigger reels but it may just be me
  15. Are you gonna return the berkley? I bought the wrong rod once, i just cut of the trigger and used it that way. Worked great but some people advice against doing that
  16. Hooks are great, they are mustad hooks. They become dull easily so id sharpen them often. Walking it is easy, it walks just like a frog
  17. I saw it at cabelas today, i didnt fall for that one
  18. I have both, the h20 is definetly better in every aspect. Only downfall is its real light. And the weight is actually painted on these!
  19. All rigged up, one rod left. Any suggestions on something i might be missing? From left to right, magnum lizard, strike king swimmer, pad crasher, strike king magnum bug, chatterbait with keitech swing impact fat
  20. In english- choked it, ate it, smoked it In spanish, la hiso mierda, ya pico, se la trago
  21. If you dont know why you need it what it can do then dont get it. But it can be used for texas rigs, carolina rigs, heavy drop shots, spinnerbaits, chatterbaits...etc
  22. Basically meaning the answer has nothing to do with the question
  23. Last question guys, im sorry im just very new at using fishfinders. Is gps a must have for bass fishing? I can get a brand new lowrance elite 4x chirp for $100. Locally. I can try it before i buy it. But that one doesnt have gps. And thanks advantage for your help!
