Thanks guys for the reply, I did see that on you tube a special tool to remove pins. starting to think i should have pros do it, Any recommendations on a company who does that ? thanks guys

Hey Guys , Been thinking about putting bocco bearings in my reels are the worth it and are they easy to install Thank you ? If it matters most of my reel are lews tp and bbi and are buying 4 daiwi svtws reels...

I spool half my reel with 50lb braid then basically tying a very long leader fc or mono i dont fill to top i stop around 1/4 from top that seem to work for me helps reduce backlash and makes skipping little easier , plus you save money on floro when iuse braid as backing .. Know matter how good you are at skipping you still are going to backlash ..

Gothca so I am not going crazy.....

Thanks croakhunter for the reply going to order some ,Don't know I came up with basshunter

They are very popular in Florida my friend swears by them a lot of the guys that do a lot of flipping and pitching love them and Florida is all about heavy cover . I am ordering a few myself

Hey Basshunter what gear ratio did you get thanks?

Thanks guys for the reply, most of my cb rods are m and 1 is mh they are dobyns glass rods after reading your reply I will put 20 on 1, 15 on 1, and I will put 30on 1 .I did notice a huge difference with braid I really like feeling what my cb's are doing on the bottom. The only time I use spinning gear for cb's is when I fish shad raps ..Living in NH we have some great lakes for cb fishing Semper Fi NH BULL

Thanks short fish , I will try that

Hey guys, Just like your input on what size line do you use when cranking with braid , I tried 10lb test and line kept snapping I think i need to slow down when casting ..when i didn't snap line results where good .I like that i can feel everything when cranking with braid, I will try 15lb and see how that works out..

I had a blast fishing the prank this weekend 6/25/17 tackle I used 14LB mono tied directly to split ring It's a great tool .

Hey guys , I was wondering if anyone fished the pdl long bait it's basically a rig but only one hook. I'm going to try it today I got it at tackle warehouse . I don't get to excited or caught up in new lures. Most of the time they catch anglers not fish but I got a good feeling with this. Trying to figure out tackle I was thinking MH or h rod 40lb braid ,or braid with 20lb mono leader, Thanks guys ( semper fi)

I agree I use tubes for everything Crig , flipping , drop shot and finesse , There is reason they have been around for a long time .

Thanks jimf, I towed it today wasn't bad can't wait till sunday for tourny . Still haven't heard from skeeter only total weight of boat and trailer sent email few days ago . Like you said and others I should be fine.

Thanks guys for the reply, It's a f150 2013 with 3.7 v6 and 3.73 gear ratio It's not like my old v8 but love the truck . Went on site got some advice on how to use the tow haul shift , So feeling a lot better towing this weekend . Can't wait for the tournament . This is a great site

Thank you I did send skeeter a email asking for the weight waiting to hear from there Thank you jimf That helps out a lot . When I bought the truck ,I thought it had max tow it doesn't It has the tow haul shift with trailer hitch Its a 2013 f150 with 3.7 v6 with 3.73 gear ratio .It has a small radiator in front of big one its like 3" wide lenght of regular radiator mite upgrade that to bigger cooler . So i should be fine just nervous thanks for reply

Thank you for the help

Hey just wondering they weight of a skeeter zzx 200 plus trailer . hoping my f150 v6 can tow says it can tow 5000 .

You can't beat a jerk bait, But a swimbait , hair jig and tube works very well I started using the float and fly the last couple of years with great results not the most exciting way to fish but it works..

I will try it with my top water baits,I will let you know how it works.

Hey Guys ,I was wondering if anyone tried the new owner inline hooks ?, I have done some research it looks like you get better action and it's better for fishing weeds they say less likely to throw lure , If that's true great but all the research has been with inshore fishing can't find anything on fresh water. Going to try it come spring time..

Thanks everyone for the suggestions You all pretty much confirmed what I was thinking with some new ideas,Can't wait for ice out!!!

Hey Guys , Moved to New Hampshire and was wondering what color jerkbaits work best in N.H waters ,Thank you
