Well I got my new setup all squared away, 7' MH Vendetta, Revo Premiere and I decided to head out to my favorite spot, which hasn't been producing for me lately. So I start out with a silver/blue back rat-l trap. I get the reel kinda setup and make my first cast. I've got to tell you the Revo Premiere is one heckuva reel, I LOVE THIS THING. It casts a soooo smoothly and reels in just as nice. So I continue fishing, not really expecting to catch much. So after about an hour of fishing, I start to head home and switch to a firetiger rat-l trap. Make a few casts, FISH ON. It was a little dink, but at least it was a fish. So I make a couple of more casts, and I feel that familiar tug tug I haven't felt in months, second fish on. Wowwww I am loving this new rod and reel, moving these little dinks around with no effort at all, and the smoothness of the reel, it felt as if I was pulling in a blue gill. I am going to love this upcoming fishing season, when does the warm weather REALLY start to come in, I'm getting the shakes just thinking about it. Here are a couple of pics of the dinks I pulled in today.

Fish more....Stress less

2 small ones is better than 0 small ones!!  that's my philosophy.

Congrats on the fish.

How'd you like that Vendetta rod?

The 7' Vendetta is awesome so far.  I've only been able to fish it with lipless cranks, so for now, I can't say how it will work for other baits.  I can't wait to use it with spinners/buzz baits.  I have the 6'3" Vendetta already.  It is an awesome stick.  I have used it from everything from cranks/buzz baits, senkos.  Fishing senkos with it, I find it to be sensitive enough for me, as all the bass that I've caught on it has basically caught it on the initial fall.  I've pulled in a few off of the bottom, and I can feel every little tick from the fish, and even feel when it falls through the grass.  I've found these rods to do what I need for them to do.  Now someone who has fished other rods, and can feel things differently than what I do, might have a different opinion about them.  But  I love mine so far, and will probably add another to the collection, as these are some pretty good sticks for under $100

great setup and catches!

Thanks Larry, That's what I needed to know.

No problem

I love catching w/ new gear.  Congrats on the catch.

A couple of more catches from Sunday. I am loving how the weather is warming up here, it is bringing the bite back on a little. A couple of pics are of the same fish, a nice lil 12-13", the box is 10" across and he overlaps it by a couple of inches
