Does Anyone Else Care About Aesthetics Of A Combo?
I dont look at matching colors but i always match brands on reels and rods and most of the time they end up matching in color. For example my crucial rod matches the symetre on it perfectly and my zodias rods match my ci4+ stradic perfect too

Who Here Sprays Scent Into Their Bags Of Plastics?
Ive tried it plenty times, i never saw a difference. But i was always a skeptic. Maybe i should give it one more shot

Pflueger President Limited Edition.
Thats exactly what happened. Guy that works there told me that they didnt receive the inventory by the set date so they will be released later. What rod would you guys put it on?

Gliss Monotex Line
So is it pretty much like nanofil? I like nanofil but everytime i retie i have to cutoff a couple feet that becomes frayed
-
Finesse Rod?
Anywere in between 6'10 and 7'1 would be fine just depends on were you are fishing
-
Finesse Rod?
I use a ultra light but a ML will probably suit you best. I mostly fish finnesse and i prefer ml or ul because you can bomb a small fluke or worm a real long way. And ive never had a problem setting the hook. I use 10lb nanofil on a 6lb sniper leader and i watch my line at all times

Insert Repair
My favorite rod i own is a crucial but absolutely hate the keeper. I was pitchin into some cover with straight braid, it got in the keeper and when i set the hook the tip snapped off because the drag wasnt able to engage to dampen the hook set. Thanks for the info i might remove it

Bass Pro Shops Flourocarbon/mono Line/is It Any Good?
I have sniper on all my set ups. I tried red label once and found that i had many unexplained break offs. Then i notices i had a bad spool. Every 5 feet or so it had small nicks. I never tried red label again. Last week i bought a 10lb spool of sniper and its also bad. Frustrating

What Rod Do You Consider Medium Heavy?
Yeah, my MH crucial feels for like a heavy. I always end up using it for frogs. Still a great rod

Any Tips On Separating A 3-Piece Rod That Has Gotten Stuck?
Spray wd40 into were the peices meet. Then grab the top part by the guide and try to twist it. Be careful and dont bend the guide but youll get it

Help Adding A Spinning Rod To My Arsenal
Yes a medium light is what you need. For weightless plastics on smaller line

Okay Im A Believer Now
I could be wrong, my buddy only caught one fish using 10lb line. It could be a more nutural fall of the lure on smaller line
-
Okay Im A Believer Now
Yeah 4 is pushing it, but when i was fighting a 4 pounder earlier i never felt my line nearing its breaking point. My drag was set loose enough that during the whole fight the fish was taking in drag. Idk about 4 lol i was thinking either 6 or 7 sniper
-
Okay Im A Believer Now
Montanaro you could be correct, but i meant to say that dropping down in line size had a good effect on my fishing. Im thinking of buying some 6 pound sniper. Its gonna be hard to drop my ultralight now

Shimano Compre Spinning

Okay Im A Believer Now
This morning i found myself at cabelas looking for some tubes. The bait monkey made me buy a pflueger president ultralight rod and reel combo. So i had to go test it out. I put on some 10lb nanofil and a 6 pound mono leader, grabbed some small tubes, 3 inch senkos and some flukes. I went to creek that has been out fished and is real hard to catch anything. As soon as i started fishing i start catching fish left and right. It was crazy they were hitting the flukes on the fall. The past few weeks if be using the same lures but on 10lb line and couldnt buy a bite. I credit the 6lb line for todays success. I used to never fish under 10lb line. I ended up catching 8 fish in 40 minutes and lost a 4lbder that i have caught before because i had no way of lifting him up out of the water over some rocks. My line was gonna break and before i could make my way down there he spit the hook. Anyways im now a beleiver in line visibility. And ultra lights are fun!
