While fishing a chugging spook I kept getting hammered. Thee fish managed to hook up, all three got off. The first jumped and got off. The 2nd and third just took off pulled drag then next thing I knew, they were off. Please help... it is driving me insane!

Thanks, I immediately took the spool off and rinse everything, I always do, I don't think it will have to go into the shop yet. I also sprayed it down with some reel cleaner.

Two days ago my reel managed to loosen up and actually fell off the rod. I was able to pull it up but it was still in Saltwater for a few seconds. I just rinsed it with water and some reel cleaner. I won't be able to take it to the shop until tomorrow. It is a 1 month old shimano ultegra 4000, with the core protect. Any more tips until I can take it in? Thanks

One more question, I just lost about an 8 pounder from throwing the hook when it jumps, this also happens a lot with smaller ones. Any tips?

Sorry for no sooner update. I have been using them a lot lately and have been enjoying them a lot. I caught 6 fish within 30 minutes yesterday and lost a really nice one. Also caught this one on it last week.

Thanks, when I bought these all the had were finesse TRDz 2.75 in.

I decided to pick up a pack of the 2.75 in Finesse TRDz today and a pack of the 1/10 oz shroomz. Is the 1/10 oz to big or to small? I always used the Big TRDz before with the 1/6 oz so trying something new.
