I checked in like,,,,,,,,eight times ! Glad that’s over 😬 Thank you

The Diawa Tatula Spinning The Kistler casting

I have ABEC 7 orange seal in all my Curados except one which I have Speed Spool ceramic bearings in. I’ve been really, really happy with the Speed Spool kit. The cost for the three bearing kit were less than two of the ABEC and cast a bit better. May be just a slightly freer reel but definitely smother.

I own all GLoomis rods except for one Kistler KLX casting and a recent Tatula M/XS 7’ spinning rod which I have found to be quite a pleasant rod for ned, wacky, small spinners and jerks. Price was nice too. A very light rod.

Absolutely correct, to each their own @flyfisher ! I will say there isn’t any place I can’t take my canoe that I could take my AP120. I just appreciate the larger interior space and wider stability of the canoe.

For me they still are to this day. I find them perfect for the way I fish, 783c, 784c and 844c MBR’s.The only technique specific rod I own is a GLX MBR 804c JWR which is my dedicated t-rig, jig and creature bait rod. I throw 1/2 oz w/trailers, creating a 3/4 ish bait just fine. The only 7/8-1oz bait is a punch jig which I throw on the same rod, very seldom, which it handles fine . I find the MBR rods fantastic!

I read the title as NOTICE OF PLANNED OUTRAGE and thought, Oh this oughta be good! 🤣 Thank you, good luck

Ha ha, not upset in the least and certainly not offended. Jezzzz the internet sure is a tough place to have dissenting points of view conversations! I apologize if I offended you which wasn’t my point of response. Totally agree loop knots have their place, but for me, never on a weighted bait. I used the 110 as an example as it’s a $25 lure that I would surely never trust a loop knot with. On a crappie jig, absolutely but my point being just because something has been around for ever doesn’t make it the “do all-end all” and certainly not a solution looking for a problem but could become a problem if used in the wrong application. Relax brother it’s winter, no issues here

Indiana Once registered you only pay the renewal fee every year. Then add the trailer, which is about $40 per year. So renewal on my Sportspal canoe and trailer is around $50 per year.

Thank you, sarcasm intended 😁 Just like the classic line “ “ have been around forever and continue to be popular. I still use the aforementioned loop knot, just not on Megavision 110 lure. We are always looking for a better mouse trap.

Buying a new rod (or 2) tomorrow, any help would be appreciated waaaaaaaaaattt! 🫣

I’ll guarantee “stress” on the loop is much greater than line running through line or reel guides. If those are your issues then it’s time to upgrade to some gear made in this century!

I get my product reviews and gear selections from members here on BR, although there are some fans of gear I would never consider but it is good to see the variety and the force is strong in many. Winter time I watch BR videos as entertainment information and do watch Greg Blanchard’s videos as he promotes competitive kayak fishing in a fun way without pimping any tackle. Spring, summer and fall I’m fishing!

This omitting step 5 , as @Team9nine stated is what I use on crappie jigs. Never used it on bigger baits because I don’t like a single line tie on the eye of a heavier bait. Just don’t trust it as the line connection becomes thinner by rubbing on the eye by repetitive casting and retrieving.

We bought a Veesee streaming box ($300) a couple years ago. We have a wireless modem for our home internet ($40. monthly T-mobile). You plug the box into the power outlet and tv, connect wirelessly to the internet and enjoy, paying no streaming service. So we paid a onetime fee for the V3 Veesee box and a monthly internet connection fee for the modem (tv, laptops, phones,etc.) and it’s great not paying Xfinity every month. We did buy through a local “dealer” for a discounted cost who downloaded the programs before we got it. That helped with the setup but not a big deal to do otherwise.
