Re: Enough with the tackle. LETS SEE SOME FISH!

Stopped off on my way home from work for only my second outing this year so far. Water level is way down, was fishing a reservoir inlet. Started off in a very shallow / narrow section of the inlet with 2 bluegill and 3 small bass on an inline spinner on the UL. Started throwing the spinnerbait when ...

Re: Lost fish therapy

I throw the bait back in the water as fast as I can hoping it'll bite again even though I know it's not going to happen, all the while cursing at myself. I've lost 2 PB smallies, one 2 years ago ice fishing and the other probably 4 years ago. I still think about them, especially when I hit the same ...

Re: What piece of cheap or tackle gear do you use and love?

I use a late 80s pistol grip set-up to chuck spinnerbaits and paddletails in tight quarters. Also has sentimental value.

Re: Spinning reel knob replacement

I actually just ordered Shimano Yumeya cork knob for my Stradic FJ. I have them on one of my Curados and love them and my Cardiff C2000 came with a similar cork knob factory. Just wish they would fit my Lew's reels.

Re: Shorter rod recommendation

My current UL line up is a 6' St. Croix Avid and a 6'7" Loomis TSR791. Been fishing a lot of smaller streams lately with limited casting access and the longer rods are becoming a burden for that so I'm looking for something shorter. Just based on what I'm familiar with I'm looking at a Loomis TSR62...

Re: "Older" Shimano

A bit older, but I used to fish with these.

I really want to supertune one and put it on a period correct pistol grip rod like I used ...

Re: Spinnerbait guys: different blade configurations

Small Colorado up front, big Willow in back. One gold, one silver seems to work best for me.
