STELLA. if i had the choice of a Stella and any other spinnig reel, i would always pick the Stella.

symetre hands down. i love mine.

THE BAITMONKEY IN THE FLESH! ;D

with ya there basspro48, almost every one in the bag is screwed up. i don't think that they are as good a frog as other companies. the way you can make these frogs stop rolling over is if you by belly weighted hooks. i stopped using the yum and went to the stanley ribbit. its a zillion times better frog.

i would rather catch 5 big fish than 20 little ones. to me, quality is better than quantity

good looking crank.

i use creatures a lot for flipping\pitching, a T-rig or Carolina rig. i mainly use the ZOOM Brush Hogs. just like you, i make my own. i catch bass just as good on the ones i make as the other creatures i use. i use the brush hogs more for carolina rigging. i use the ones i make for pitching\flipping.

i would have to say the shad raps and the husky jerks, i also like the skitter walk.

sorry for the confusion guys, it is me and my dads boat, when i said that i have one i meant that that is the boat me and my dad fish in our tournament's in, it's not MY personal boat. but we do have a Tr 21 and we love it, its an awesome boat.

i read about this in Bassmaster. they don't sell it at my local tackle shop yet but i will try when its in stock. seems like a good line, although i have never used Rapala's lines before.

definitely the shimano curado, i just bought one of the new ones and it is awesome. i know some people that have bought the revo and have not been satisfied with it. they said in their first outing using it it had problems. a shimano will last you a lot longer, get the curado. i have a lot of the older models and they are still working without problems.

i love an all-star but i think G-Loomis rods are best.

definitely a shimano symetre , i have one and i love it. its an awesome reel and have so far had no problems at all, but then again, i've never had a problem with my shimanos.

i don,t see why they wouldn't work, tell me how they work.

roboworm's straight tails are awesome, and like my friend Basspro48 said their FX series are cool too. i like the ayu and transparent flake/shad colors.

i have never tried the live sammy but have the regulars and i love them. i would try the live one, the "live" part of the body gives if the fish jumps with the back hook and fish don't shake off as easily. i would ask for it.

definitely the citica, even though its only 20 bucks more, the quality makes a HUGE jump up.

palomar knot

i have a triton Tr 21 and love it . i would get the triton over the stratos, i think tritons are nicer boats, but then again this is just my opinion, and your decision. i would get the triton, DEFINITELY!

i've had the same problem, so i don't use BPS brand weights anymore after that.

i have know lots of people that have this problem with trilene in general. i just think its not as much of a quality line, thats why after i used all the trilene lines and had the same problem, i never used trilene again.

CITICA. hands down

i havent tried these but have heard they are great for flipping. i would think so

ZOOM HANDS DOWN!

Thanks Whittler, I appreciate the help.
