Your first real combo. Still have it???
My first real combo was a abu metal framed spinning reel with a fastcast trigger and a black conolon rod it lasted about 5 yrs no clue where it is or what happened to it before that it was zebco 202 combos that lasted about a 1yr ...i did have a quick reel modern in early 80s it lasted a few yrs ...then i saved up for a silver shimano 10 bantam and a fenwick pistol grip rod had that combo for ever about the same time i got my drivers license and discovered girls i loved them both and caught my PB with that combo 10.4 oz in maryland using a purple manns worm and 14 lb stren line...anyhow girls where more important for about 3 yrs of my late teen life and i didnt fish much if any after that big bass ...miss them days of bass fishing from about 5 yrs old to about 17 everyday...then boom girls caught me

changing gear ratios with amount of spooled line?
The smaller spool has a effect on drag smoothness is most likly why unless your using braid in slop i wont matter much though

Recommend me spinning reel
Go old school ..penn 716z 722z they dont fair to well with braid though but can handle a dunk or 2 id put new drag washers in it ..200 yrd of 6 lb line maybe a little heavy though but would make your 6 3 .eye con tip light wich aint a bad thing for a light action

Do You Know Where This Stuff Is Actually Built?
Japanese,swedish,korean,german,english,Malaysia, USA are my preferred reels and the ones that never give me any probs ...chinese vietnam IMO and experience are junk

Sealed vs not-sealed spinning reel
The only true sealed reels are van staals and they are made for saltwater and the smallest is 18 oz so its not a true bass reel but then AGAIN ive seen ppl use 30 oz reels and 10 ft rods for bluegill..

CBD oil....thoughts?
I find it kinda mind boggling that some ppl endorse SOME FDA approved drug that in the past has been taken off the market.its about money big PHARMA owns the FDA .we aint talking millions we are talkin trillions of dollars.read the fine print of FDA approved drugs for simple things ...can cause psychosis,seizure,ganggreen,stroke,dementia etc ....all easing the pain of a migraine LOL ill take my chances with THC if i gotta choose .

CBD oil....thoughts?
I took it for a month after my stroke helped out a lot but it does interfare with blood thinners so i stopped taken it ..like anything though always ask your doctor about interactions with meds you take ...suposedly your not auppose to take it long term...THC is ok long term so who knows its best to read as much as possible from all diff people and diff countries to get a good direct hit on the pros and cons of CBD oil or anything for that matter. Big pharma dont like natural stuff so it wont be FDA approved its all about money...

Curado Bantam 100 B baitcaster comparison
Dont know how why who when or where ppl get the assumption older reels cant compete with new reeels.....last i seen its not a race so no competition ....unless we are speaking of gear ratio then yes of course a 10.0 is faster then a 5.1......but the fish catching part is between our ears..
