mushroomhead vs slipknot debate (metal fans)

Shimano reel and rod size?
2500,i have it on a 5'6 light but its still hevy enough to go onto a 6' or larger......its better if the reel is to small rather than 2 large and i think the 4000 is to big

very confused ( yet another scale question )
one other thing ill add is that were i fish, to catch a fish 2-3 pounds is good and anything over that is big.lately ive been catching fish in the 2.5 pound range by my scale and they all are consistent in size.it seems like when im fishing the numbers seem more accurate but the dead weight is off
-
very confused ( yet another scale question )
ok so with all this talk of scales nd checking them made me curious as to whether mine is accurate, i tried 3 different objects by putting them in a gracery bag and hanging it on my rapala 50 # scale....first up was a 3.5 pound bag of crushed almonds.the scale got it perfect .....then i put in a 6.8 # huge can of chili and got somthing like 7.7 :-?....so then i put in a 5.15 # thing of energy/protein shake of my brothers...i got somthing around 6.8 :-? anyone have any ideas as to why it is duing this,,,is it the scale or somthing i did wrong P.S. everything was zeroed correctly

Caught tons of fish last month, now none...
use suffix siege..strongest mono for the diameter,,also your problem may have been your drag.if the drag was to tight the line will snap very often with large fish

st croix avid over premier??
i am going to buy a new rod in the next week or two and want either a 150$ avid or a 90$ premier..the two are basically the same and i was wondering if the avid is really worth 60$ more

Suffix Siege
i have had the exact opposite experiances.first other lines i used would backlash on every trip at least one time,since i swithced i hardly ever backlash (usually from casting into wind) as for the abrassion resistancethe line will look as tho it is messed up and has rough spots but from my testing this never affects its strength until it has hapened many times.and i am still not sure why you are upset witht he vreaking strenght, in my mind that would be a good thing and most companies do overshoot the strenght for the main purpose that customers wont get upset when it breaks under the tested strenght

Boat Coloring - Effect on Bass
i think at some point ya just gotta say to yourself that its only fishing and that you wont catch em all no matter what.somtimes i think we as fishermen try to hard to catch the fish and end up catching less,plus that bass wont be in the water looking for a boat or person unless its right in front of his face and probobly wont pay any mind to the color

Spinning Reel Lines???
sufix seige,,,i use smoke green in 8# test
-
IM6, IM7, IM8???
if im not mistaken it is the number of layers of graphite in the rod and more layers equals more sensitivity and more durability for example IM8 means 8 layers of graphite and is more sensitive than IM 6 or 7
-
Question
i will have to dissagree...whenever the fish are hiting close to the shore or the boat right when its about to come out of the water i slow down and they more than likely will hit it
