Shimano Miravel - choosing correct size for finesse application ?
I run a 1000 on my Mojo 610 MLXF for Ned, Dropshot, Neko...the 26"IPT seems about perfect for the application. The difference between the 2000S and the 2000SHG is retrieve speed, with the HG being a 6:1 ratio and coming in at 31" IPT - note that the 2000's are shallow spool and hold less than half the line as the 1000.

Help me find a new spinning rod, please and thank you.
Comparing my Furys to my Mojos, I'd say the Furys are MF-F....just a bit slower than a true fast, but not a true Mod-Fast either unless it's the 705CB which is a Mod-Fast

Two piece rods?
Both my Okuma Celilos are 2 piece - no issues.

Boat rookie
Okay - so 100ah rating....means at speed 5 on the Edge, the battery will last a little more than 2hr20min (I have the same Edge 45) - but at speed 1 it'll last 20 hours Couple things - 1: I'd trade out that 100amp breaker for a 50. 2: If you got a sonar, I'd get a small 35ah battery to run that and connect it also to the lighter socket and USB ports - let the 100ah be solely for the TM

Change that Miravel 2500 to a Miravel 1000 and that's my Ned/Dropshot/Neko rig.

ESPN, Fox and Warner Bros. Discovery are planning a sports streaming platform in the fall
I don't do sports other than fishing - Pluto TV is free, streams over the internet and has lots of shows and movies. Also run Paramount Plus when Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is showing...cancel when the season is over, restart when the next season begins.

I don't - just keep them on my desktop and edit the size with Photoshop as needed. I don't trust online storage...

I would say any of the 2500 reels on the Mojo 610MLXF would be your best bet For new purchase: Rod - any decent UL to M power Reel - any decent 1000-2500 reel - 1000 on UL or L rods, 2000-2500 on ML or M rods Line - 4# on the UL to 8# on the M - mono or FC

It's safe - the only question is - what's the capacity of that battery (AH rating)? Did you also get a charger rated for Lithium?

Bulk Mono Low Memory
No - but considering it's supplied by Pure Fishing it's probably relabeled Berkley, Stren or Shakespeare .
-
Bulk Mono Low Memory
If you don't treat it, the memory is more than mono or FC as it is a blend of the two, but using this I have no issues.

Another vote for both Elite and Yo-Zuri - for the latter, decide what line test you'd want then drop it one...if you'd normally put 10# on, use Yo-Zuri 8#, etc.

Well, THAT doesn't happen every day
One morning I was at the kitchen sink waiting for the coffee to finish and I glanced out the window to see a Red Tail having a bunny breakfast in the back corner of my lot.

Need help in choosing a 1000 size spinning reel
Ya - if the Daiwa model you're looking at has a 'D' in the model number (Fuego LT 1000D) that's a deep spool. Have to go JDM to get the standard or shallow spool Daiwa reels - they seem to think everyone over here wants a million miles of line on their reel so that's all they provide retailers here with.

Tiny crankbait
I've got several cranks that are light - primarily use them for panfish, but have caught some bass on them...and even a walleye. Creme Tiny Lipless - 1/10oz Rapala UL Shad - 1/8oz Rapala X-Rap 04 - 1/16oz Ultegra 1000 on an Okuma Celilo 762ULF

Need help in choosing a 1000 size spinning reel
I've got a Miravel 1000 and an Ultegra 1000 - both purchased from Digitaka for well under your price limit. Personally, I like the Miravel more than the Ultegra. Today's price on the Miravel 1000 is $96 - https://www.digitaka.com/item/5/4/1/4969363045119

The latest sale thread
His is a take on his real name. Not as unique as you might think...the online (phone) ordering as well as a small browsing area with a pickup desk where you can order in person is a business model that many parts suppliers have - and not just auto dealer parts desk. Grainger Coremark Metals Fastenal All use that business model.

Anybody using Marabou Jigs for bass?
Ya, I keep Marabou jigs in 1/4 and 3/8 in my box and will occasionally toss them. Caught a few bass with them, but not huge numbers.
