  1. Wow! This is quite a line-up. It looks to me like G.Loomis is making a huge commmitment to this new series.
  2. Braid/ fluorocarbon is generally a better option and VERY cost effective.
  3. Take it back to the retailer for exchange or send it to Megabass. I have never had an issue with the Ito Vision 110 or any brand other than Smithwick. Smithwick or the retailer have replaced lures without any argument.
  4. Yes. The OP was asking about a trailer. As far as paddle tails by themselves: Berkley Hollow Belly, Shadalicious and Keitech Swing Impact Fat
  5. Siebert Outdoors Swim Jig (Chartruese Shad)/ Rage Tail Menace (Blue Glimmer) http://www.siebertoutdoors.com/Siebert-Swim-Jig-418.htm http://www.ragetail.com/news/color-charts/rage-twin-tail-menace-color-selection/
  6. The wild ride continues...WTI $48.05
  7. Welcome aboard! You are pretty close to Guntersville, one of the best fisheries in the country.

  9. I am sure we will have some member reviews once we get the rods in our hands. This rollout is very exciting.
  10. My go to trailer has been the GYCB 6.5" Kut Tail, but last year I discovered the MegaStrike MegaTube Craw which was KILLER! http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/124624-megastrike-tube-craws/

  12. Nice fish, great pics!
  13. Hmm... I'm wondering how many fish survive such a radical drawdown. I doesn't sound very promising to me.
  14. We will see...The commitment is HUGE!
  15. Better "fishing" option: Take him on a guided trout fishing float. My dad's last outing was on the White River below Bull Shoals. He hooked up with the fish of a lifetime! With the right guide this will be perfect. If trout are not an option, crappie or white bass will work. The point is , drift don't make him cast. This kind of fishing is all about catching. Too young or too old, I guarantee this is the solution.
  16. No, it is a bonded fluorocarbon/ nylon blend. It is not coated. Finally a line that makes a difference! Our goal of developing a new revolutionary fishing line was lofty – make a line that was stronger, more abrasion resistant, more sensitive and more durable than any nylon lines on the market. Hybrid is the first and only fishing line that molecularly bonds nylon and fluorocarbon during extrusion. The result is a strong, dense new material that we call Hybrid. Hybrid takes advantage of the awesome abrasion resistance and sensitivity of fluorocarbon, while utilizing the flexibility and stretch of nylon.
  17. Pappy Van Winkle on the rocks! http://oldripvanwinkle.com/products/pappy-van-winkles-family-reserve-23yr/
  18. Posted Today, 06:46 AM For medium weight lures, MF or MHF If you want to throw big swimbaits you will need heavier equipment. --------------- Specifically, my dedicated rig for soft swim baits is a G. Loomis GLX MBR842C/ Core 50Mg/ Tatsu #15
  19. I have been a fan for more than a decade. Most guys like it, some don't. Spinning gear: #6 = 11.9 lb breaking strength Baitcasting gear: #12 = 19.5 lb breaking strength
  20. Yo-Zuri Hybrid Izorline Sunline Super Natural or Sunline Defier Armilo Nylon Line I have not used the Armilo yet, but it comes HIGHLY recommended by several members. It will be the next line for me to try.
  21. Ain't that the truth? The "new guy on the block" is Pinnacle. The staff and a few BassResource members have written reviews on several of the new Pinnacle reels. The Primmus Xi HS is slightly above your pricing point, but could be bought within your range on sale. This is my favorite: http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/149259-review-of-pinnacle-primmus-xi-hs-hand-tuned/

  23. Geez... Little dude using both hands and already looks like he knows what he is doing. Precious!
