Revo SX/Carrot Stix! Sweet!!!!
I think the best part about this rod is not the color or sensitivity, it the weight! It is the lightest rods i own. A reel weighing any heavier than any revo (8.7) feels too heavy. And having to find a light enough reel is not a bad problem to have. I haven't tried braid on these but i saw a show where Boyd Duckett was fishing one with a swimming frog w/ braid.

Revo SX/Carrot Stix! Sweet!!!!
I bought both of mine from delo's. They are a sponsor here on the forum. Click view all sponsors under the interchanging banner at the top of the page. They have I think 11 models of it in spinning and casting options. I love them! If you purchase one, you going to want a little bit smaller profile reel to put on it. I have two and I have the Revo SX on one and a Citica 100DSV on the other. One with 10lb Triline fluoro and the SX with 10lb Suffix Elite. Get Ya One! Tin, Redlinerobert, and I are believers in the carrot stix.

Better Frog
Which size bubble pop did you get?
-
Better Frog
I would much rather fish a plastic frog anyways.... But if your going to get one get a more compact frog and you will catch all sizes of fish. like a SPRO Bronzeye Jr. You can even flip those holes w/ a plastic frog if you have enough patience and let it sink in.

Revo SX/Carrot Stix! Sweet!!!!
Now, does anybody know of any orange reels grips or orange/black swirl reel grips? I love reel grips and have them on all my reels but on this one they have to be a certain color.

Yep, shes oiled up and ready to go! The cast control cap was tightened down and all i had to do was loosen it and it came right off.

They open the same way. I can't tell if anything is stuck in it because it wont open! I'm turning the right way and turning it hard.

River2Sea Bubble Popper vs. Spro Dawg
I have both sizes of the Bubble Pop and they work great. Come with sharp hook and good action.

Great lure.........for some.
Jitterbugs and Pencil Poppers for the big ones.

Better Frog
I think its time to get a flippin stick. Flip the holes with a baby brush hog and pegged 1/4oz tungsten weight.

Revo SX/Carrot Stix! Sweet!!!!
Doing exactly what i do to my Revo S. I can create a little space between the sideplate and the main frame but it never gets big enough to put a credit card between the two.

Revo SX/Carrot Stix! Sweet!!!!
It won't budge! ive got pretty strong arms and it doesn't move one bit.

Revo SX/Carrot Stix! Sweet!!!!
Thanks! Yep, i think we both gotta have our carrot stix! They feel great with a Revo SX on them. I have a Citica 100DSV on the other. They both work great but i wanted this one to be something to show off to everyone. I don't think you can get a better 300 dollar combo.

Revo SX/Carrot Stix! Sweet!!!!
Got another carrot stix and this time i put a Revo SX on it. Man it looks awesome. Question: How do you open the side plate on the SX? I can open the S with ease but I can't get it open on the SX. I'm unscrewing the top screw on the other side of the reel.

Football Jigs
Skinny Bear for all football jigs. I use these in all colors. They dont hang up at all and have a rubber skirt and Owner Deep Throat hook. The worst thing about these jigs is its so hard to find a small enough trailor! Thats a pretty good problem to have after hearing your problem. http://www.***.com/descpageJCASKINNY-SBPJBR.html

First Bait after winter thaw?
Chatter bait, Jig-n-Pig, 1/8 buzz bait, and because i live in Alabama and the water never freezes and fishing starts mid February, a zoom horny toad. I have also had good luck early season with a 3/16 spot remover pro model for pitching to deeper bushes and dock pilings.
