I woudlnt Crank while fighting a fish on spinning gear ,let the drag do its job with out crankin it will twist ur line even worse.Do the pump method let it take line then reel down to the line like fishing salterwater fish then pull towards ya without reeling then down again then up use the reel to pull in slack line

How about Ardent ???

Still though if ur paying 300 for a rod then give um 50 more for new rod it means u spent 350 on a rod .i aint got no college degree but even i see this as kinda strange ;D I think a no hassle warranty is one when u walk into the place u bought it from and get a exchange like shimano no questions asked dont even have to give um 50 bucks

Yall gotta try strike king pure piosons

Patriotism swiftly fades away when share holders demand a the same or a better profit for the money they have invested in a company. Sure does thats why they recall so many toys,crayons, and baby furniture made in China LEAD paint/particles are cheap ,Cheaper then our kids well being .Anyone got a figure on recalls or accidents with home appliances from china/taiwan etc etc???? Yup profit is GREAT when you make high quality equipment.Too bad high quality has succomb to Greed at Americans expence :

Snapping turtles usaully go really slow on bottom and leave 2 lines of bubbles on each side from there feet hitting bottom ,I cant tell u how many fish (bass) i have caught in my pond by casting near or in front of the bubbles

Dink or 2 before i call it a day then i sit home and watch ..............

BAITCASTER ...Confidence

If its a line of bubbles sorta like a lightning bolt 3 or 4 foot long and really fast its a fishes tail hitting bottom.

So all my new 4600c,3,s and 4,s with made in sweden on the side are fake ??

I have a Shimano carbomax it does good its 6-6 i found one at sports authority for 10 bucks it was mis priced but since it had that on the tag they had to let me have it only thing i dont liek is the reel seat is finicky with my abus all i can fit on there without it moving is a torno im pretty sure it fits shimanos better

The round reels are still made in sweden

That be cool 8-)

You can get hitchhikers and jig hooks and save money thats all the zoom hook is anyhow.You can get 25 60 degree jig hooks for a little over 4 bucks and grab some hitchhikers large ones 25 for a little over 4 bucks you will have 25 frog hooks for 8 bucks

I seen a article in Bassmaster back when it was a great magazine about a guy down south that used um YEAR round all he used was devils horse .Said it was all he needed

I do a trilene knot with braid BUT i use superglue after it is tightened never had one slip.SUPER GLUE RULES for more then just line also

Ponds are there own ecosystem it dont matter if they are a bank apart or a drain pipe away ,I fish 2 ponds so close i can turn around and cast to each one .1 pond the fish tear up buzzbaits the other they wont even look it takes a fluke to get them

Yup a 5600 or 6500 should do ya good i dont musky fish but i read about it and all the places i visit talk highly of ABU,s same around here for striper BTW GARCIA RULES

Id think it would make ur fish taste like wd40 if it swallowed it ,we all no a small squirt can make a whole house smell bad and what if it gets in the meat???ewww

It makes um Cut grass and drink beer

Yup they dont send out reels messed up already .its UPS,FEDEX etc who do this

Sunn in the winter and spring shade in the summer and late spring.Fall is up for grabs

Where do they sell these $40 dollar bass boats? Do they have a website? ;D Back to the topic. I agree. You could catch the world record largemouth with a Zebco 202 and a 5' ultralight Ugly Stik if you are in the right place at the right time. Im stilll looking for that website also all i can find are 40 tho dollar ones when i google it,Im at the end of the internet i think

So true i love having a relax day of fishing at my nearby lake no boatlaunching etc>I can still have fun .hard to belive there are ppl out here that have 40 dollar bass boats and never even caught a 4 pound bass in there life.Bass really dont care how much you pay for anything you use to catch um .they dont go up to a TIKI worm and say nope not today ur not a senko or go up to a rapala and nope your side dont say lucky craft ill pass OR smack u in the face after u reel um up with your ugly stik and plfueger reel.Fishing is not about advertizing leave that to the companys .Its about having fun and only you can DO THAT

I've seen this before, and it's wrong. You are a victim of a marketing ploy. The STX is a saltwater reel (whether or not its marketed that way). There is no difference in the bearing material between the Revo S, SX, STX and Inshore. All use German made bearings that are solid corrosion resistant steel, not coated. The Revo Inshore uses exactly the same HPCR bearings as the "freshwater reels." The Inshore's "X-Craftic alloy frame and crank-side cover for enhanced corrosion resistance" is gobblygook marketing talk to make you think you are getting something different in the Inshore than you are getting in the STX. You aren't. Same reels - different looks. If you frequent any saltwater boards, like the striped bass board, you'll see the STX is a quite a popular saltwater reel and I haven't read a single account of any problems with saltwater use. It doesn't matter if it's a "salt-water" reel or not, any reel requires special care after saltwater use. On top of that, the Revo's drag system is second on none - probably the best of any reel on the market today. Certainly is provides the most drag force. I respect your decision, but the STX would have made a fine inshore reel. And given it's drag system, may have been the better choice for larger saltwater fish. Ya if im trying to make a fish MOVE in saltwater i want to use more then 12 lbs of drag force even a high speed Revo has 18
