Cheaper Fluorocarbon
Sunline super flouro is decent also. I switched from sniper to super because its hard to find sniper here. I like it but havent used it a whole lot

Hooking up with a Texas-Rigged Senko
Just give the fish an extra half second to eat the whole senko. They usually bite it 2 or 3 times before it is fully in their mouth

Falcon Rod Owners (or previous owners)
Bucoos are the best at that price in my opinion. Never had one break on me
- Triumph X, Bucoo, or Veritas 2.0

Question for owners of Falcon Bucoo Spinning rods
The 7ft cranker spin is one of my favorite rods. The most versatile for sure. You wont be disapointed. Really shines with shakyheads, 4 inch senkos and flukes

dealing with rude ignorant people while fishing
I agree with avidone1, yesterday i went to one of my spots and when i got there there was a couple there getting intimate. When they saw me i told them id be on my way and i was gonna look for a different spot. They told me to stay and even offered some vodka shots. The only reason i stayed was because i was invited. Gotta respect peoples space

Large worms and setup
I fish magnum flukes, manns jelly worm, magnum lizard and big ol monster on a heavy/fast big bear rod. Works awesome. Double fluke rig with magnum flukes is killer

7'2- 7'6 heavy moderate spinning rod?
I have a 7ft heavy big bear spinning rod which is amazing. Id order another custom big bear rod but they dont make moderate rods. May look into saltwater

7'2- 7'6 heavy moderate spinning rod?
Anyone knows where i can find one. I usually buy a casting model and cut off the finger molding but maybe i can find a production rod? Has to be spinning. I prefer shimank or gloomis but ive searched and at this point anything goes.

fishing alone or with a partner?
Ive always been a lone fisherman, bringing people always annoyed me. I recently started fishing with one of my employees. He had never fished before, he is now addicted to fishing and is learning so fast. He really listens to what i tell him and fishes just like i teach him. I dont mind fishing with him.

Tell me about your Big One that got away.
I lost a good one a tournament a couple weeks ago. Would of gotten me first place too. 100% my mistake but i dont ever think about lost bass, i just tell my self i was a dink. Anyways i was fishing a tournament and some guys that were also in the tournament were making me mad, evertime theyd catch a fish they would scream and make a lot of noise( wernt even keepers). I was swimming a magnum fluke when a biggin hit it. I did my monster hookset and knew he was pinned and not getting off. The guys were looking at me, they knew i had a good one. I tried to get back at them by letting the fish jump just so they could get a glimse of his size. Well he jumped alright, probably around 8lbs. He spit the hook mid air making me look like a fool. Big lesson learned

Action for Frog rods
I use a falcon bucoo heavy moderate fast. Its right in between a fast and a moderate. Give it just enough action to cast frogs a mile. And just enogh bbackbone to pull out the biggins

Shimano crucial or compre
Hey, quick questions for you guys. I have a couple crucial that i love. Im looking into getting a 7'1 or 7'3 medium extra fast rod. Im leaning towards the crucial since ive never had a compre. But i can maybe save some money if i get the compre instead. I can get the crucial for 155 new, or i can get the compre for 70 new. Is the extra money worth it. Unfortunetly no tackle store near me has the compre in stock so i can feel it. Thanks guys

New Reel dilemma
The fk is a really nice reel. I have the 2014 ci4+ but i feel the fk balances better on rods. But both are far superior to the other ones you mentioned in my opinion
