Copolymer line
Strength relative to line diameter; abrasion resistance; longevity (not effected by UV light); water absorption and stretch. P-Line, Gamma and Yo-Zuri Hybrid are three good examples: http://www.yo-zuri.com/Products/ProdLine/Hybrid.htm http://www.p-line.com/product_detail.php?id=96 http://www.gammafishing.com/gamma-process.cfm 8-)

Traveling rod tubes/cases
Great suggestion!

Traveling rod tubes/cases
I own one, they are indestructible! You still need to keep the rods in socks or some bubble wrap so they don't bang around inside. The case holds six rods, but carry your reels separately. 8-)

How many of you buy a new rod directly from a catalog/website
It's easy if you are already familiar with the company's rods. I'm totally comfortable with St. Croix and G. Loomis online descriptions. However, the best deals I have found are on our Flea Market! 8-)

1000 or 2500 size spinning reel?
Although I generally agree...the 1000 series seems to be a better fit for shorter rods. I only have one (Stella 1000FA) and it's matched up with an Avid AVS66MLF. This rig is sweet! 8-)

Packers vs. Cardinals
Fun to watch. Either team could have won, but one team had to win. I don't think anyone should demean the game with wouldda, couldda, shouldda... Congratulations to the Cardinals! 8-)
-
which knot for backing to braid???
First of all, it doesn't matter! I misread the post. You should never get down to backing. More generally: For lines of equal diameter: Blood Knot Braid to fluoro: Alberto's Knot All single hooks: Palomar Knot Big treble hooks: Sixteen-Twenty Knot 8-)

What do you use when fishing HIGHLY PRESSURED city lakes?
Hmm... I'm about big...no...HUGE! Try both extremes, just do something different! 8-)
-
What kind of spinning rod?
Generally, 6 1/2' or 7' Medium Power/ Fast Action. The St. Croix Avid AVS68MXF would be an excellent choice. 8-)

What do you use when fishing HIGHLY PRESSURED city lakes?
Two of my most productive ponds are the main feature of highly pressured public parks. I suggest fishing lures that the other guys aren't! I have had excellent results with big jig presentations (Rage Tail Lobster trailer) and the 10" Anaconda. Most importantly, fish away from the bank in deeper water. Casting from shore, I fish 15-20 yards off the bank. If you find any type of structure, focus your time there. 8-)
