  1. Keitech Swing Impact Fat, Shadalicious, Berkley Hollow Belly, GYCB Swimming Senko Rage Tail Menace and Shellcracker, LFT Live Magic Shad and RI Skinny Dipper.
  2. Looks like a lot of guys are jazzed. When will they be available?
  3. Me and the rest of the Moderators have been VERY impressed with the new Tournament Series Pinnacle rods. This is my review and the others are linked at the bottom of the page: http://www.bassresource.com/fishing_lures/pinnacle-optimus-xlt-dhc-review.html
  4. Just keep the reel, smile and thank her whenever you have the opportunity!
  5. If you are interested in a round reel I have a CTE200GT that would be perfect! Cosmetically 9/10, mechanically 10/10. $250 TYD.
  6. "Don't leave home without it!"
  7. A very good reason NOT to use swivels. Retying often is a "good practice".
  8. I hope you can get this worked out soon, but airing your complaint here doesn't do you much good. From FAQs: I have a dispute with 'company X'. Can I post about it here? While we can empathize with your frustration, the best course of action is deal directly with the company. Escalate it up the ladder, file a grievance with PayPal or Ebay (if they were involved with the transaction). File a mail fraud complaint with the post office. There are other options, but attacking the company in a public forum is not appropriate nor allowed. Such posts will be removed. Good luck. This thread is closed. -Kent
  9. After last weekend's Classic, I think everyone will be throwing a DT6.
  10. Gosh, there is no limit to what you can do with spinning tackle, from bream to yellowfin tuna! For me, spinning tackle is all about finesse. Primarily I fish soft plastics and live bait with spinning gear. For everything else I like the feel and functionality of baitcasting equipment. My basic rig is a 2500 size reel, 7' MF rod and #4 or #6 line. Specifically this is my spinning gear: G.Loomis PR844S/ Stella 2500FD/ Yo-Zuri Hybrid #4 (Mostly live bait) St. Croix LES70MF/ Stella 2500FE/ Tatsu #6 (This is my primary rig) St. Croix Avid AVS66MLF/ Stella 1000FA/ Hybrid #4 (Trout, white bass & bream)
  11. Sometimes the good guys win!
  12. Me, too! However, my #1 bait for deep water structure is the Rage Tail Thumper (bluefleck), T-rigged.
  13. Featured article on the Home Page: http://www.bassresource.com/fishing/deep-water-crankbait-paul-elias.html
  14. Send it in to Zebco. They may fix it, but I suspect they will just replace the reel.
  15. I replace the skirts on new spinnerbaits. I have never had a lure that outlasted the skirt.
  16. Fill out your form and talk with Long Mike or Alpster. They are the coordinators and may be able to help. Looking forward to seeing you there! -Kent
  17. Here's mine: http://www.bassresource.com/fishing_lures/pinnacle-optimus-xlt-dhc-review.html Several more listed below the article.
  18. The simple answer is #12 Yo-Zuri Hybrid on baitcasters, #6 Y-Z Hybrid on spinning tackle. Other suggestions for baitcasters include Kanzan #50 direct or with #20 Tatsu leader. #20 Tatsu or AbrazX for fluorocarbon only. Although I generally recommend #6 Hybrid, I use mostly #4 on spinning gear. However, not everyone would be comfortable with that choice. I also use Tatsu #6. Lots of guys like braid, too. I have experimented, but it's not for me.
  19. The BPS flyer is offering the Curado 200G for $99 on March 15th.
  20. Avid AVC66MF/ Scorpion 1000/ #12 Sunline Super Natural
  21. http://www.pinnaclefishing.com/shop/s-5-Tournament-Class-Reels.aspx We have several VERY favorable reviews on these reels.
  22. I replace all skirts with Lumaflex: http://store.jobabylures.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=J&Category_Code=SKL
  23. I think the AVS68MXF is a better choice and a rod I recommend often! This rod has more range.
