  1. I have one BB and really it is high end reel, Yes it is heavier from my other Exsence, But still pretty good reel for the money. Get the BB and youll like it.
  2. I was the bait caster only fisherman, But every year I start to add one spinning combo, Right now I have three of them and in few days Ill have forth combo, But I cant convert to spinning to be honest. I am getting more spinning tackle because we have more finesse type lures in market each year. So I want to have 1/8 or 1/4oz jighead also have a ned setup and small jerk bait and weightless 3"/4" wacky and so on... I dont want to change and change lure and waste time to cut and tie new lure.
  3. That thumb got injured by fish before this one, It was a 3.5lb plus rainbow trout and he made a bloody fight with me ?
  4. My PB of the week ?
  5. I used my shaula 6.6" 4pcs rod as everyday rod for pond hopping from 2015 up to this year when I got my Dobyns 6.10" and it was good rod in last 7 years. I know this rod and it will be awesome for everyday rod.
  6. Sad story.
  7. I came across this shorts from my favorite comedian Bill Burr:
  8. I never touch my tension knobs, Specially Antared DC 21s, Anyways just cool it by putting it in freezer and let's hope the different materials react not same and loosen up. If it didnt work, do same thing by putting in sun light. do only 20 min freezing ad sun light because if you keep it longer the other part will expand or shrink eventually. You know I am talking about the molecules right? And also dont forget some kind of lubricant or reel butter around it to reduce the tension.
  9. It is very sensitive subject for me, Not I only not carry all of the above, Also ill wear all pink, Well groomed and nail done while boarding planes LOL And the irony in that is I have so many badges and airport pass due to my job. So I'll get easy in airports from any back gate but for travel that is a NO NO and I believe we shouldn't blame them, They really doing all that for us and our love ones safety and security. So I never blame them because they know something that we dont know. in this case we as normal people dont know why a fishing line can be dangerous except when it snapped on fish of lifetime, But for sick minded scoundrels out there can be anything(some people can be very creative). My company and I going to follow up with PD headquarters here to help them make some educational video for traveler. I just need to get on my feet after covid hit my business so bad and once I recover I'll do that for free for security of people.
  10. Hello and welcome.
  11. I use my Antares DCs on everything: 842 Conquest with Antares DC21 With 12lb Tatsu 903 Conquest with Antares DC21 With 12lb Tatsu 844 Conquest with Antares DC16 With 40lb braid with 16lb leader 905 Conquest with Antares DC MD 50lb braid backing with 20lb InvizX As you can see even my jerkbait rod(842C) is Antares DC and it can cast it like champ. So you see what you use the most and try to get that rod, My first rod was Conquest 844C and it was my all around rod, So I suggest you do the same.
  12. I use co polymer for these application and I really like it. It is stronger for creek and also more invisible vs mono.
  13. Thank to @J Francho for all he done and congratulations to @12poundbass , He is well respected by others and he is really respectful member. Glad to hear the good news, Thank to @Glenn and all of his crew to give us opportunity to be here and have up to date knowledge for bass fishing by sharing with each other.
  14. I was also bass fishing but I couldn't get anything with power fishing so I change to finesse jighead and swimbait and all I catch was crappie, so I gave up and enjoy catching slabs
  15. The moment I wish I can capture is I am fishing with my father and two sons while my mother watching us and talk to us, But it seemingly impossible because each character of my picture is living in different part of word. Father in Middle east Mother in Europe one son in Philippines one son in USA having issue to meet him. But I love all of them and thinking about them everyday.
  16. I was night fishing, and I heard something walking around me and It was a lots of movement, Guess what? I was listening to scary stories about people encountring demons and demonic sprits in outdoor such jungles mountains and rivers, Haha yes I was listening to that as always do for sometime while night fishing. And these movement around me gave me some good time while casting and looking for night bass. I start to talk to the being and made him sure that I mean no harm, Just want to enjoy couple night fishing . Fast forward in morning I was drinking coffee and found out who was making that noise all night and gave me chills. look at the first picture and see by yourself if you can see him. And this is in daylight, Did you spot him? Now look at the rest of pictures to see more clear from other angels.tell me how many of you spot him in first picture in comments. Anyways I found it funny to share with you guys even though it wasn't funny when I was all alone at the lake and because it was ester next day, There wasn't people around me. Oh man that was one of those nights.
  17. Matt and Tim really tune in deep in tackle, I use them as tackle encyclopedia and they are really good at their job. They are missed here in CA when they move out last year. The difference on them with others is that they are not brand loyal and also they cover soooooo much tackle and brands for everyone with different budget.
  18. It is because of pricing, Usually kids want to start or have something cheaper. Plus social networking and push they do is one of the kind.
  19. Hello and welcome to bass resource.
