Went out on Percy Priest Yesterday with Shadcranker..

Coudn't wait to try my new spinning combo, Daiwa Tierra on a Shimano Cumara, I rigged it with a finesse tube marinated in JJ's Magic.

First cast....FISH ON....nice fight then Shadcranker starts laughing his butt off.....it's a catfish and I hate holding those slimy guys which has him laughing even harder....but OK it's one cast and one fish

Second cast...FISH ON.....it's what is supposed to be there, a LM

Third cast.....Fish ON.....another LM....Three for Three

What a way to break in a new combo....caught a couple more with it before the day was over. I've got a new favorite spinning set up!!!

im also considering purchasing the tierra

3 for 3, you should have quit right there

sounds like a great day

If your rod developes a rash, try a little

baking soda to provide temporary relief.

Otherwise, reel replacement may be required.

Carl, how is the Alpster Custom/Mg combo treating you?  Did you get an extra prop to carry on your boat yet? (reminder  )

Glad to hear Percy is treating you well.

Uh Oh.....don't have Yozuri Ultra Soft on it either.....thats probably why I got the catfish!  ;D

Been using it (it is a sweet set up) but nothing caught on it yet.....next outing it's going to get me a Hawg though! The prop is still on the shopping list  ;D

You need to get together with Bud & CJ over on Kentucky Lake.

I know Bud's been killin' 'em.

I don't think I'm letting him back in the boat with that rig. That rod deserves much better!

Get the numbers off that reel and play the lottery.

Nice!!!

Pretty sweet setup Carl.  Can't beat three for three.  I have the Tiera and love it.  Been thinking real hard about the Cumara too.
