JDM Lures - Houston Texas
I went to AZ to fish lake pleasant and it became rainy when I got the phenix, and my check in was 3PM so I had 9 hours to kill. I went to their website and saw everything sold out, Thats how I know about them. Anyways I have so many big glides and I can wait for them to restock again. Thanks for the help.

Have you quit fishing before?
I married by 2006 and by summer of 2008 after visiting my inlaws when back to philippines my wife at the time said she left everything with her father and somehow got rid of them and said I can fish when we going there, That was start of no fishing period till 2015 when finally I was free again and I always remember it was June 3 the best day of my life (I remember every rod and reel and tackle I order by that day). Since then I am living happily with fishing and I am thanking lord for every minute of it. Sorry if someone might find it offensive, But she was special, not like others. Ive seen a lots of girls that fish with their man and I adore them and wish them the best, but mine just dumped my reel and rod and tackles.

Reel for 6’ light premier
what you fishing for? 2500 is very versatile size and you can do it for bass and trout/Panfish at the same time.

Technical Line Test Question
No I am using it for bass while doing bait and wait for trout. so I do two fishing at the same time. I am also thinking of 12lb, I think thats the best for this rod rating.

What are Ugly Stiks good for?
I have couple of 7' gx2s with 6lb and 8lb test for my tube fishing, So if I loose them I am ok with it. I have couple of 8' catfish specials as well for night fishing, And have couple of 8' striper fishing specials for striper. I paid around 200 for all 6 combos and it is really enough for what I am using them for.

What makes you choose a body of water to fish?
For me, I am so lazy, and I need my truck beside me or as near as possible, Any lake have less walking is the winner. If I am going to be on boat and rent a boat, The lake that have better fishing report is winner and driving there for me no problem at all.

Big Shark Fishing Tackle And Combos.
I have 20 yards of 400lb mono after that and then the wire. I am just trying to use the line I have, Because the lines are very expensive. A 3000yards of good braid can cost about $800, So tried with everything I had in home , till next time. Anyways the mono 130lb I changed after one trip it was burned and no good after a 7' shark. Also my hooks are 16/0 and in some case 15/0.

Big Shark Fishing Tackle And Combos.
Add another reel (Avet 80W 2 speed) to my land base shark fishing. Took the advice from @WRB and remove spinning gears, so international 30 will drop at 100 yards and 14/0 will drop 300 yards and Avet will drop at 250 yards. the 14/0 have 2000 yards of 130 braid with 250 yards of 130 mono to-shot, Avet have 1000 yards of 130 braid with 150 yards of 130 mono. International have 80lb braid with 50lb mono topshot.
