Castaic Lake is my lake.

Southern California

I just read;lly afraid of used have major problem and I dont know, But as @J Francho said, I can trust reliable dealer like the one @WRB said and use their warranty so I guess I am going that way. probably next week you going to hear from me.

I want to learn to have boat, Since I know nothing about boats, I need the cheapest option that have no history of violence If I have friend who wants to sell and I trust him, For sure ill get his boat, Otherwise I need brand new with all factory and dealer warranties to make sure that I am covered for anything might comes my way.

Brand new

and it would be? brand new, how you can find used one and make sure thats a good deal? Unless it is your friend or family want to sell.

Guys, I was researching and what I found out , Triton is cheapest fiberglass boat in market. To be exact Triton TRX 179($31k with 115). Am I right or there is another brand that making cheaper?

Tell me about Mojo Yak, How is it? I am thinking to get one.

I do buy big box of tips in so many sizes, I fixed three of my rods and put them back to work, And I left 100 more tips for future. It is good you buy in bulk in so many sizes, so if you need shorten the rod, you can find the right diameter tip for it. https://www.amazon.com/Outus-Fishing-Stainless-Ceramic-Replacement/dp/B08NGJL1ZZ/ref=sr_1_4?crid=6F879Q332273&keywords=rod+tip+guide&qid=1649819327&sprefix=rod+tip+guide%2Caps%2C140&sr=8-4 dont forget to get the glue for it. https://www.amazon.com/Fuji-BMFRK4C-Micro-Repair-Finish/dp/B00AU5VRV6/ref=sr_1_1?crid=383XL3K6TGC91&keywords=rod+tip+guide+glue&qid=1649819395&sprefix=rod+tip+guide+glue%2Caps%2C116&sr=8-1

I would go with Antares, It is definitely the best when it comes to long casting. Also Metanium 20 MGL.

tube with jighead, I hear about lizard and bright color float worms. But never tried.

If you like real stretched, Sunlike FC100 leader system is also to be consider.

Guys, As you might know I am Varivas line user for so long, And I am using them for trout and BFS fishing. They are really best when it comes to diameter and abrasion resistance and knot strength. Recently I was browsing their products and I found 100% Fluorocarbon they calling Absolute AAA, I got one spool because It has 14lb test which I like over 15lb test, and also it has half spool, Means now I can use 75 yards and keep another half for another use. That was something I was always want, So I dont need to use line counter anymore, Because to save fluorocarbon line I always use braid as backing and I only use 50 to 75 yards of fluorocarbon. Anyways this is the pictures when I open the box and I am going to update you after I try it.

I am braid to leader fan, but when it comes to larger swimbaits, I do use braid as backing and straight 25lb InvizX fluor for 75 yards. Since I done that, I am enjoying casting them and never had any issue.

I paired my curado reel with curado rod, there is everything in that line, you can use MH or H in any length of your choice.

Honestly if you do FG enough, You'll be good at it and you'll always do it. I really was afraid before but I stat to do it over and over and get good at it and after a year I learn about rizzuto finish, and improved my FG knot even more and now I am really good at it. Most of the time I am doing it in home the day before fishing so I dont need to do it in wind or on boat. It is really strongest and smallest diameter knot for braid to leader.

Get curado DC and you'll have property of high end reel plus DC breaking system.

I am using this for few years: https://www.amazon.com/Frabill-Hiber-24in-X22in-Hndl-3600/dp/B00302PYRE But if I am not in boat or I can do it with shorter handle, I would use the same as the one @Junger Showed. Specifically this one: https://www.amazon.com/PLUSINNO-Floating-Fishing-Steelhead-Telescopic/dp/B08DRLL2QH/ref=sr_1_10?crid=12O6YDV1R36MN&keywords=Fishing%2BNet%2BCollapsible%2BTelescopic%2BPole%2BFishing%2BNet&qid=1649054839&s=sporting-goods&sprefix=fishing%2Bnet%2Bcollapsible%2Btelescopic%2Bpole%2Bfishing%2Bnet%2B%2Csporting%2C124&sr=1-10&th=1
