Tatula Elite problem
I removed the line and did what you told me to do. At first the spool was hard to to spin then all of a sudden it freed up and is smooth again. Something was evidently causing it to bind up . I respooled it and it’s reeling like new. Thanks for your help.

Tatula Elite problem
Yes. Opened side plate and removed spool. No line caught up. Took spool out and reseated probably a dozen times. I did drop the spool but was sitting fairly close to the floor. Both

Tatula Elite problem
Went ahead and spooled the reel up, tied on a half ounce lure. Lure wouldn’t fall until I loosened spool tension up all the way and very little casting distance.

Tatula Elite problem
I bought a new Tatula Elite a couple months ago. I’ve only used it three times. I changed the line on it and when I went to reel the new line on it the handle feels really rough now, like it’s slightly binding up. It was silky smooth last time I went fishing. Any ideas?

Trolling Motors
I started out with a 30 lb thrust TM on my 10 foot Pond Prowler and it worked fine for calm days. Windy days it felt like I was barely moving. Upgraded to a 55 and it made a big difference.

Whats You Favorite "big Bass" Lure?
It’s hard for me to name one lure for bigger bass. I’ve caught bass over 5 lbs on a squarebill,frog,t-rig,jig,flatside crankbait and a buzzbait. The biggest percentage of them where caught on a lipless crankbait.

Would you purposefully keep a spawning fish?
No. There’s only a couple species of fish that I’ll eat and bass isn’t one of them.

Your Total Years
I’m 50 now and I was probably 4 or 5 the first time my dad took me fishing. I remember walking around the pasture with him digging up night crawlers underneath the dried up cow pies.

MB Levante Braillist or Loomis E6X JWR
I have no experience with the Megabass but I do with the E6X. Way overpriced for what it is and you can find a lot better rod in the $200 range
