Rod/Power to throw Whopper Plopper 130
I would use it for 3/8-1/2 oz swim jig and trailer and 1/2 oz wake rats. The Mojo handles these applications well. So i'd hate to swap it out if the Tatula just doesn't cover the applications well enough. Like i said,the HF is one bad mother of a rod and I cant say enough good things about it. Was hoping the MHF was just as good. @FryDog62 I would throw it on a HF just to get off the upper threshold of the rod rating and my own peace of mind. Some rods can handle it, some can not.

Rod/Power to throw Whopper Plopper 130
How do you like the 7'2" MHF ?? The HF has quickly turned into my favorite rod. Was seriously considering upgrading my 7'1" Mojo to the MHF Tatula.

BPS and Daiwa???
Very similar experience with me. I have been there so many times that i used to go just to grab some hooks and BS with some of the guys. A lot of the smart ones have since left and the kids they have now can't answer simple questions straight. No longer as personal as it once was and twice the hassle. It's a shame.

Did I screw up buying a Medium Light rod?
As a Mass resident and fellow pond fisherman,the vegetation gets out of control up here in the summer.Lots of muck,pads,chestnuts and milfoil fo deal with. I would suggest at least 7' MHF setup while playing in this junk.

Top water/Jerkbait

BPS and Daiwa???
The BPS in Foxborough carries both Daiwa spinning and casting in store but not as heavy as the Shimano selection. Most of the things you would want to buy are only available online or constantly out of stock. Tackle Warehouse is the way to go.

The Annual Boom or Bust Lure thread - 2017 edition
Booms for me are the Rage Tail Rage Bug, Spro Rat 30 and the ever so trusty wacky rigged Yum Dinger. Busts are hands down the hollow bodied frog and soft paddle tail swimbaits.Not a single fish on either one this year so far.

How often do you catch a big bass?
I like to target the big girls. I'd personally rather catch one 4# fish than four 1# fish. A 2.5# bass is a quality fish in my book though. They can't all be bigguns.
