Trouble with Flourocarbon memory
Sounds like a spinner caster situation. Many over fill the spool. Keep a solid 1/8 of space. Line conditioner is your friend. Flip the bail by hand If you have a boat, take off the terminal tackle and let 100 yrs unwise itself while troling. When responding use a cloth first strait with kvd conditioner. If this doesn't work, go braid with leader

Sunline Super FC Sniper VS Gamma Edge Fluorocarbon
Many guys use in is as main lines without any problems and it is a great product. Having 1000 yrs would definitely influence my decision. I would put in is in the same category as shooter and sniper and sniper. My buddies like in is for cranks...no wrong answer, just personal preference.

Is Seaguar Red Label 20lb. Test Any Good?
It only cost you a cup of coffee and a donut so no big deal, but I bet you keep in on 1 day as a main line. Hell, I am not fond of shooter and sniper as 20 lb mainline.......that is Tatsu area.

Learn How To Tie A Knot
It depends what I am using for bait. On a spinning rod, it can be as long as 12 ft. Sometimes I bring it back to the reel......other times 5 feet. No set rule and sometimes depends how lazy I am.

Learn How To Tie A Knot
The timing of this thread is great. We started a fishing club for students and today we decided everyone was going to use the Uni to uni if the knot wasn't going through the guides FG and Alberto if taking it through a few....

Learn How To Tie A Knot
I am with you..... My only hold out is shallow crankbaits, and that too might change. I have many friends that are 100% braid to leader..

Why lower gear ratio reel for 6"+ swimbait lures?
This spring I am try a 7:1 and going to decide for myself. I am naturally a slow retriever, so I hope it works to my advantage

Spro BBZ1 swimbait
Great bait, I have several and gave out a few for Christmas.

Yo Zuri Hybrid
600 yards leads me to believe your thinking of it for main line. I just think we have to put a value on time and experience and I think there are lines that would serve you better. As leader, go for it, if not, pass

GLX rods. Worth the $?
I gave a cplofloonatics@yahoo.com GLX and E6x's. The GLX is hard more sensitivity and money well spend for the techniques that require feel

Topwater rod options?
I use an e6x swimbait rod and also use for list flipping and large deep crankbaits...not perfect , but works
-
Line suggestion for small cranks, jerks, and topwaters
Braid with leader is the answer..it is a compromise, but I think it the best option......... The next option is just FC, while not perfect for top waters, I rarely see it impending the lures performance. It barley breaks surface tention

need a crankin rod?
With a little searching you can find options in that area. While many speak highly for the ugly stick, I disagree. Way to much of a noodle for me. While I don't think you need to spend a lot for a crankbait, if you pass on that next case of beer, the dobyns becomes affordable ?
