I'm just getting back into the sport after several years and looking to replace some of my lews speed spool LFS reels and tatula's from 2018ish. Would yall recommend the AL-TI or the new daiwa tatula X? I'm looking to get back into tournament fishing as a co-angler, so they'd be going on several setups.

Were you finding the XG model on amazon for $67?

I was fishing saturday, caught a LMB, SMB and spot all within about 20 feet of each other. They were stacked on a rock.

Ok, I am going with the 7" echomap chirp. What is the difference between the 73cv and 73dv. Is downvu down imaging, because I thought that Garmin couldn't sell downvu.

Does the Plus models have mapping?

I thought I had settled on the echomap chirp, but I saw the release of the new Plus models, and became interested. My only question is if the plus models have gps, because I don't think I saw any mention of them.

If your range for reels is $80, then look on Ebay for a Daiwa Tatula CT.

Recently I have really gotten turned on to tube fishing, and want the most success. I have been using a spinning rod, but had some issues with it. Does using a tube with a baitcasting setup impact or change the action any? If not, I'd love to use a baitcaster for my tube fishing.

The Bait monkey made me ask...

Just wondering if anyone knows anything about these tubes, they look very interesting!

I'm with CroakHunter, I try to not overthink color or to a degree the certain plastic/bait I'm using. I like to think that if I find the fish, they will find my bait.

I have a 5 arm yum Alabama Rig, but having heads on all 5 is too cumbersome for my rod. My plan is to only have 3 weighted heads (5/16 or 1/4 heads) and the other 2 are rigged weightless. I'm wondering where to place these so my rig doesn't tangle. Just wondering if anyone has any experience in this and could help. Thanks!

Maybe not necessarily the action, but that it comes through cover better. It gets hung up less in rocks because of the football shaped head vs the narrow bullet weight.

Ok, Thanks. It looked like the Daiwa D on the handle. Does Daiwa also make the Cabelal ZX and XML rods as well?

Looked up the arachnid and it seems VERY similiar to the Daiwa CT series. Anyone fish both, and can tell me the similarities/differences. If they are basically the same reel I am interested because of the lifetime guarantee. Thanks
