I prefer 832 even though it fades slightly quicker. I don't care. If fading is an issue, I believe Gamma may last longer

Pull up a chair and put your feet up.....welcome

A phone call often yields good results. I have yet to pay msrp for one yet....and yes, all were full price on line

Rumor has it the Hook Up might have some deals coming

Not all braid diameters are the same, Smackdown being relatively smaller. That said I too went Hi-Vis and use uni-uni, since the lines are so thin

.....yup, 10lb braid and your good to go

I usually have a dozen in single 1 inch plastic bags. It's just easier tying a few at a time

A custom cover makes life easier. There are few off the shelf covers that don't require an under structure or modifications to work well

I know a few guys that use these....Keeps honest folk, honest Bemagnificar Solar Dummy Car Alarm LED Light, Simulated Imitation Security System Anti-Theft Flashing Blinking Lamp(Red)

Bingo, that was the one I was referring to

Many are rethinking the Snell, many feel that it works against wider gap hooks. It can cause the bend to hit the roof of the mouth and punch the point in. There was just a great youtube video on the subject

There is no wrong answer here. Having all 3, they all have a place. If the $$$$ the chronarch wins, especially if you go JDM, ( and don't hesitate to do so). If you don't like it, sell it and make an informed decision. I would also loom at the classifieds here......there may be a few willing to sell one before the Black Friday sales hit

Seen more than a few big SB'S lost on braid. I have gone to Armilo for bigger baits

I have a couple of both and can tell you the Bantam gets the call when going in the weeds. The Chronarcs and Mets everywhere else. I have wrist issues and paling the Chronarcs and Mets is just more comfortable. I have one Geary Met, but performed well. Have since swapped out all gears and they are heavenly.

Last time I was there with live bait, it was 50lb braid, no leader.

^^^this, all day long. Have the same problem and is a great solution

This year I sent many out to TT for deep cleaning and some mods. I tried a couple that they did for a buddies and couldn't believe the difference. Going forward, I suspect I will put them in a rotation, doing half myself. That said, it all depends on whether I can tell the difference

You can't tell the cost of something u til the accounting period is over. That said you also have to take into consideration replacing treble hooks if applicable. A good example for me would be my pop Max's .Don't think I have ever lost one and they do hold up better than their peers. I also think that there is a Big quality difference and performance in spinners.

Or mail what you want a head?

My boat is on a dock most of the Summer. It is covered and i have never had a problem

Life is to short. I am booking a trip to Mexico for next Fall with my son, and hopefully it will be an annual thing going forward. #noregrets

I have it on good authority that 4/1 will be the official ice out on Squam. I plan on picking up my boat on 3/25 and will be throwing a silver buddy on 4/2.

OK, send me your address

I will be buying 2 boxes for terminal tackle and one for jerk baits. I like the idea of not having to buy extra drying pads
