Also not impressed with the new ones, i will miss the cork/tac
-
Haven't used the E6x, but i totally recommend the Aetos, love mine. For 95$? Its a steal
-
Yea i have only really used suffix 832, ill give some other brands a try, thanks! Ill check it out, thanks!
-
Recommend looking at a Daiwa Tatula CT, retails $129 and its my favourite reel as of right now, can't beat the price!

Suffix 832 braid
-
Yeah guides are really small, really annoying at times
-
I have 40lb braid on my frogging/flipping/pitching rod. Been having problems with braid wrapping around my guides, sometimes its only my last or second toast guide, other times it gets wrapped around a few. Its not a huge problem, just annoying when you have to fix it, and recommendations to help prevent this?
-
Been using the Aetos for about 3 weeks now, love it. Look for a longer/heavier cranking rod, maybe a mod fast that could also handle chatterbaits/spinner baits!

Love both the original and ct, although the ct is smaller and has a deeper spool then the original, i don't feel a performance different.

Has anyone used the Fenwick aetos 7'0 medium moderate bait casting rod? Lure rating 1/4 - 5/8? If so, how does it preform and what can it handle well, and not so well? Thanks! Any feedback is appreciated!

Mornings and evenings work best. I only fish frogs in lillypads and surface vegetation (i prefer poppers and walking baits in open water), with a lot of luck in the middle of the day actually. Must be because the bass are seeking the shade under the pads when the sun is up, good luck!
-
Usually low light conditions; morning and evening. I have also caught bass in the middle of the day under lilies with a frog. If you see fish busting on the surface, throw some topwater! I have had tremendous with luck smallies, trowing poppers in 3-8 feet of water, over rocky points right as the sun is setting. Good luck!
-
Try soft plastics with some nature colours, i would recommend trying a paddle tailed swim bait and fishing it right over the grass. A weightless senko texas rigged, and a drop shot would also be my go-tos around grass. Chatter baits also come through grass well. Good luck!
-
My go to finesse set up! Rod: Fenwick elite bass tech 7'0 m/f Reel: Shimano sahara 3000FD Line: 10 lb Sunline Sniper FC, going to be putting on braid soon! How do you like the autos, been eyeballing them!
-
I like the pad crashers, pretty cheap, good quality and easy to find.
-
Sink to the bottom, drag and pause or hop and pause! I like using a 3/8 and 1/4 skakey head, with a trick worm or robo worm, good luck!
-
Love the rapala dt series!
-
I also fish in the Kawarthas, i can't wait for season to open! Me exactly!
-
Shimano sellus is pretty nice for the price ($50-$60), and you can find a Daiwa tatula for about 100$ on eBay. Thats the combo i would recommend! Some Bps combos are pretty good too.
-
Also thew my p-line out after one day. The remainder of it will be used as backing now.
-
Im also transitioning to Fenwick rods, haven't tried the Aetos yet, thanks for the review!

Drop shots always produce!
