  1. Yeah me too, I always make custom tie-dyes to match the sky before I go fishing same as how fly anglers catch insects and tie similar flies!
  2. Having a shirt that matches your jig might just be overkill, but it sure must look awesome! I like how all of your jigs have a slightly different skirt, making each bait unique in its own way. reminds me of the rep your water shirts that are made to look like trout with spots and such, not a bad idea!
  3. Cabela's Tournament ZX 7'1" M Moderate
  4. The skirt has action that makes it enticing. I throw an assortment of bait when they are feeding on baitfish, switching in order as the bite slows down. whopper popper -> spinnerbait/chatterbait -> Swim Jig -> Keitech thats what works for me
  5. somewhere between 2 and three...hundred rods are usually on the deck of my 50' bass boat with a 900 HP engine. All jokes aside, I have these rods in my 14' hull on tournament day: *The gear in blue I already own and the gear in red i plan to buy soon...* Finesse 7’4” L Dobyns Champion Extreme 2500 Shimano Stradic Ci4+ 10 lb braid / 6 lb floro Drop Shot 7’2” ML 3000 Shimano Stradic Ci4+ 10 lb braid / 6 lb floro Skipping 6’7” M 3000 Shimano Stradic Ci4+ 30 lb braid / 12 lb floro Skipping 6’10” M Lew’s Hank Parker 3500 Okuma Stratus V 15 lb braid / 12 lb floro Swimbait 7’0” M Cabela’s Tournament ZX 2500 Cabela’s Tournament ZX 12 lb braid / 10 lb floro BFS 6’7” M 8.2:1 Shimano Scorpion 71 10 lb braid / 8 lb floro Topwater/Crankbait 7’1” M Cabela’s Tournament ZX 6.3:1 Cabela’s Arachnid 10 lb mono All Purpose Casting 6’6” MH Falcon Bucoo Micro 7.2:1 Shimano Castias 12 lb Seaguar Invisx Spinnerbait/Chatterbait 7'0” MH Falcon Bucoo Micro 7.3:1 Quantum Smoke PT 30 lb braid All Purpose Reaction Bait Cousin’s Tackle IM8 7’0”MH 6.3:1 Shimano Scorpion 201 17 lb Seaguar Abrazx All Purpose Bottom Contact 7’3” MH 7.3:1 Daiwa Tatula CT 17 lb Seaguar Abrazx Frog 7’3” MH 7.3:1 Daiwa Zillion TWS 50 lb braid Flipping 7.2:1 Shimano Aldebaran 7’6” H Dobyns Savvy Micro 50 lb braid / 20 lb floro Extra 6’6” MH Falcon Bucoo Micro 7’0” XH Carrot Stix Wild Wild Black
  6. About to order a Shimano Scorpion 200 if my parents will let me...
  7. I told my parents that I had to go fishing as part of an english project, being like Thoreau and exploring the wilderness. Ended up writing about a different time on the water, but I got to go fishing and skip soccer practice!
  8. Yeah but it was through eBay so at least i will get my money back
  9. Just bought a Shimano Stradic FK 1000 on eBay for $18. Hopefully it isn't a scam...
  10. I am looking at the Scorpion 201, 71, and Aldebaran. I was browsing eBay and saw some older BFS Aldebaran and chronarch 50mgs for around $150
  11. ct is much smaller and easier to palm
  12. i am seeing a bunch of older shimano reels on eBay. Are they any good compared to today's reels. For $150 they seem like a steal. They might not have today's best technology, but they were the high-end reels a few years back. what do you think? I saw an Antares 5 maybe for 150 or less. seems like an awesome deal but i really don't know.
  13. i found the receipt for the cheaper rod and ended up just returning it for my 40$ back. Im going to get the other rod repaired.
  14. Anybody have an eBay coupon, I am going to buy a new reel and want to save some money.
  15. For some reason I am addicted to the look of those two. I am even more addicted to the Stradic Ci4+ FA. something about those colors...
  16. If you decide to fish the schuyllkill, id love to go with you.
  17. fe walter dam, but from a boat. it has one of the world's largest populations of copperheads.
  18. I am considering a zodiac, it looks really good. Im sure both are good rods.
  19. There are two lefty casitas's on eBay for a steal right now if you're interested... https://www.ebay.com/itm/253663574185?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649
  20. I "Promise" that you will love whichever rod you buy from ALX!
  21. That Tatula Elite and Aldebaran Combo looks amazing! Thinking about getting a Shimano Scorpion / Shimano Zodias Setup. What do you think about this idea? I think it would look amazing.
  22. I will probably end up repairing the rod.
  23. I have two broken rods that I purchased from Dick's Sporting Goods but i lost the receipts. Both rods broke. one has a broken guide and the other broke in half. I know that they carry both models in store, but not the same length and action. My question is will the store allow me to exchange both rods without a receipt for different lengths? oh and i put winn grips on the rod with the broken guide and left the plastic cover on the cork on so the rod will look brand new. and it was barely used
