New Zillion rods being introduced
Fuji K, but no mention of frame or ring material. Titanium sic would be a home run.

New Zillion rods being introduced
Good points. They are obviously targeting the expride, and the Zillion may offer a better blank

New GLX
Yea...the casting rod reel seat didn't work for me either...really disappointed me at the time. I bet we see a new seat...probably nrx style.
-
New GLX
That $299 is for the 721 & 722 SJR's. Those are what I'm looking at...just don't have extra $ at the moment.

New GLX
Sweet. It will be crispy and crazy sensitive 😎
-
New GLX
Must be coming this summer...seeing clearance GLX's everywhere. They must be keeping this new model top secret...can't find anything on it

New JDM reels - 2024 Model Year.. who's buying?
Not yet. Still healing up from a surgery I had a couple weeks ago. I figure I better make it through physical therapy before buying any new reels. Yea...Essence and Essence XR are appealing.
- Phenix x-13 w/ curado 301

Tight vs Wide Wobble Crankbaits
Yea...definitely 6th's answer to the Frittside. Frittside has to be the most successful launch since Lucky Craft's RC series 20 years ago.

Favorite EWG Hook ?
Most underrated hooks for sure. Amazing hookup ratio on stickbaits 👍. That hook pictured is differennt than mine. Maybe that is a texposer 'ewg' and mine are standard.
-
Crankbait choices
I could easily just use 2...Lucky Craft and Black Label 💪
-
Wobble-head recommendation
That, or just pegging your sinker 1" above the hook will give you the same effect.

Twitch baits
Twitch baits are like jerkbaits without a lip. They are generally slow-sinking baits. Here is Rapalas 'twitchin rap'...

Bass Attractant
I'll be giving the Gulp Alive! spray a try this year. May even put a few baits in a ziplock bag to marinate. I've used Bang aerosol in the past and liked it.

Toby Keith RIP
Yea...just watched a piece on him this a.m. I thought his cancer was in remission...he just did a concert in December (Vegas). Sad...at only 62, another Oklahoma legend leaves too soon.

Advantages of a shorter rod?
You move your bait less with bottom contact.

Thunderhawk Tico Series Rods
Good lookin' build. Wish we knew more about the blank.
-
Baits you plan on trying this year.
I want to try the molix short arm spinnerbait. Quite diffetent than my Zorro short arm baits and looks like it would burn nicely. https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Molix_Short_Arm_Spinnerbait/descpage-MSRSP.html

Rebel history topic
That pic of Tommy is like a postcard of 1975. His trucker hat with hair jutting out the sides is some southern business casual.

Question to the Yoda's of jig fishing about braid to floro fishing line for jigs
Straight fluorocarbon for me. It offers the best slack line sensitivity and I don't have to screw with leaders/knots running through my guides.

Did Ozark Trail stop making lures?
I forgot Toby purchased luck e strike. 'Whiskey for my men, and beer for the bass' I guess.

Post a photo a day!
I hear ya. I have a long haired dog that will lay out in the snow.

!What’s your absolutely favorite high end flipping stick ?
Forgot about one...Savage Gear Black Ops 7'11"H (156g). I have limited time with it, but it's nice and fishes well for a nearly 8' rod.
