I need a good deal on a glx
You want the '24 model. I held them at the classic expo and Loomis really perked them up. They float in your hand for sure. I call ALF as suggested, but labor day will be the next sale everywhere.

Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
The Steez 'Real Control' rod I ordered from japan Lure Shop showed up yesterday. I ordered it on July 4th, so got here quick via UPS. It is light for a 7-3"H @ 107g's, and I like the taper. I was disappointed in 2 areas...the lack of an exposed blank reel seat like is on the steez bottom contact rod. Also the lack of a butt cap is a head scratcher. It did come with 2 rod socks...a nice full zip, and then a light duty slip on deal.

What would you call this rig?
That skinny azz fish would have eaten anything you offered him.

Definitely interesting. You'll have to report the performance of this rod after some time with it. St Croix went all-in with this series and is offering 17 casting models. Just FYI, but those DX rods are HVF/glass blend.

All purpose BC reel - Lews Speed Spool LFS or 24 Tatula 100?
You need to post up a few reels a day in the 'show and tell'. We're all bored and would like to see them.

What kind of handles do you like for a baitcaster?
I just put the same handle in 85mm on my 80's. Not sure about the round knobs... I need to fish 'em.

Removing Barbs from hooks
We need a good hook company to make barbless trebles. Unhooking a jetkbait from a fish with a mouthful of #6 or #8 trebles is nerve racking.

Removing Barbs from hooks
I go barbless most of the time now by crimping the barb down with pliers. I don't worry about gut or eye hooked fish anymore.

Post a photo a day!
My brother went on a business trip to Hong Kong, and hit the tackle shops. He said the rod's he bought showed up today. Shipping was about $70. Only one I'm familiar with is the Daiwa Gekkabijin EX AGS 6'8"L he paid $213 for ($468 @ Digitaka)

Yamamoto Kreature Bait Question.
I've never fished one. I know a couple of guys that say they are effective, I just wasn't interested when I first saw it. I'd be down to fish it without the large curl tails though. I know you didn't ask for my opinion of the bait 💩

Very nice rigs, but it looks like you're taking pics with a Vivitar 110.

Lews Baitcaster Reels - Why So Many Models
TW lists 4 baitcasting reels under 'Best Sellers'. 3 Lews models and the Shimano SLX. I was kinda surprised.

Word. I also bought a 150 and a 70. Then decided at noon today that if there were any 70XG's left I should buy another. There was 1 left

I read that the dopamine spike you get from making a purchase can last over 48hrs....longer than any illicit drug.

Can you damage gears by tightening the drag and pulling a snag?
Yea...that was what I thought happened, but didn't prove it.
-
Can you damage gears by tightening the drag and pulling a snag?
Don't know about gears, but I jacked something up on an OG Scorpion 1000 trying to get my bait free. I don't normally pull like that, but I was in a tournament, and didn't want to ask my boater to motor over to the bank.

Lol. We know what stage he is in. In a couple years, he'll have so much stuff, it acts like a deterrent. BTW...did you get those curados from Ali-X? I have the same 2 reels coming.
