ATA

they are one of the best, ordered about 15 rod and reels from them, shipping free by fedex. I got them 3 to 5 days at the most.

yes, I meant tight the drag, sorry. I have BG8000 and I know exactly what's wrong with his relit is nothing wrong. just tight the drag little and that noice will gone

It is about lightning your spool tension. you tight that and clicking sound will be gone.

Jig Weighted Texas Rig Frog

I use treble hook But Ike swearing by VMC Neko hook.

Welcome to bass resource

Jigs The reason is that I know they are the best and I really struggle with them, But this season I have one or even two combo that will have jig on it all season and it will be my first rod I pick up everywhere I am fishing and see the result.

I have some concerns using neoprene covers, Ive them for all of my good rods(I upgrade them from normal plastic covers), And I noticed that they are heavy and you are a guy that leaning your rods to the wall or stand them, The actual weight of neoprene covers will slightly bend the lower action rods like M action to down. I didn't see same effect on MH and up action rods. Just want to let you know.

Ambassadeurs are really good, I mean the old ones as far as I know, But spinning and low profiles I had very bad luck.

Honestly I am also searching for a kayak since I cant have boat in my home. and also I am going to use this boat for shark fishing at surf, So I need something that stable the most and can handle rough ocean condition. So far I found this, https://www.amazon.com/BOTE-Inflatable-Paddle-Fishing-Recreation/dp/B087J9SG6P/?tag=kayakhelpguide-20 still looking, ill share if I fid anything better.

Also remember the rod is more important than reel, A good rod that fits your application is the must. If you choosing to have one all around rod also ill suggest you spend more money on rod not reel.

Buy Simms, I have them and they are very light and do the job. https://www.amazon.com/Simms-Freestone-Wading-Rubber-Gunmetal/dp/B082YH7PBN/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=Simms+wading+boots&qid=1620095789&sr=8-8 or Orvis: https://www.amazon.com/Orvis-Mens-Ultralight-Wading-Boot/dp/B077YZS2Q1/ref=sr_1_9?dchild=1&keywords=Simms+wading+boots&qid=1620095789&sr=8-9 just look at models and prices. and remember buy 1 size bigger, even 2 size to make sure for winter when you wearing thick socks.

Do FG knot and use that braid cutting to FC as advantage.

I am avoiding them with few bad experience, I like quantum and okuma so much more.

Thats very nice of you, Best choice are kids and students specially the college bass teams. I do that for the kids mostly and I always birthday gift kids around me with fishing tackle< but mostly I buy for the,, no matter if girls or boys, they are getting fishing combo starter kit from uncle

Since you can catch bass(fish) with very basic MH or M spinning set up spooled by 8lb mono line, some 3/0 hook with some soft plastic which costs less tan $100 all in all, Made me think of majority of us that we always buying and upgrading our gear. We don't only have bass fishing as hobby but we have another hobby that I think we can call it tackling :). I mean I really enjoy to buy and collect all the gear I can. But to be honest with you I am sometimes not using them in months, For example I have 5 BFS combos and two of them were used only once last year simply because I like the most one of them and I do majority of my BFS fishing with that combo. This applying to my lures and soft plastics as well, you imagine I fish 200 days plus in one year and whole last year even with tackle shortage I still have bunch of soft plastics. If you want to be honest 90% of tackle I have are extras and I just have them and using them because I enjoy to do so. another example of what I did was unnecessary is my 11 travel combos 6 spinning and 5 casting combos, Since day one I didn't go to travel so I didn't use them as their purpose. I am going to wrap it up, this 90% unnecessary purchase belong to my other hobby call tackling haha... Thanks for reading, I just wanted to share my thoughts.

Black dog Shell Craker G2, I have ghost bluegill color, really good lure.

I tried them side by side in so many occasion and Ive seen the difference first hand, The Maxscent won always.

I always doing that from the first with no reason, It just felt right to do it. My only reason I can find for myself is the way I am keeping my reel bag, If I loose the drag, I can adjust the handle in position to put more reels in one reel bag

buy Okuma C10 you can buy two of them for $78 with free shipping. https://www.amazon.com/Okuma-Ceymar-Spinning-Reel-Size/dp/B015RWXZPW/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=okuma%2Bc10&qid=1619891863&sr=8-2&th=1
