Re: Some one HELP ME!!!
Do what I do now that you probably have everything you need (and probably much more that you don't), spend that extra time fishing :) Seriously, try to control your urge to buy by getting out on the water a lot more or spending time with family. Try to limit fishing research and web surfing to when ...

Re: What are the must have reels ?
Adding to the great Stella spinning reel, I'd add the Shimano Stradic Ci4+ for those with a bit tighter budget. Depending on reel size, they are somewhere just north of $200 and they are simply great. I don't think I have ever read a negative review on this reel. Brad The CI4+ is where I started an...

Re: Traveling with Fishing Gear
I prefer to travel with multi piece rods so I can have them safely stored within my luggage. Im not sure what its like for you in the US but everywhere I have travelled it seems like if you give an airline something extra to take that is unusual they do everything in their power to lose or damage i...

Re: 15 Luvias or 13 certate?
The older conventional Tierra that I used before had a standard design.

Re: 15 Luvias or 13 certate?
Hawkoath I have loads of spinning reels but have never owned a Cerate. However I cannot figure out what is this "oval loop" you are referring to. Please clarify what part you are talking about. From the Daiwa website: http://www.daiwa.com/reel/detail.aspx?id=597 I believe it's called the bail assem...

Re: 15 Luvias or 13 certate?
I don't have a luvias but do have a larger certate and if I had to do it again and was in your situation I would probably choose the Luvias. Let me give you my reasons. First of all, I don't think Certate is really all that smooth compared to other reels out there. It's a workhorse though in terms o...

Re: Hiking with Fishing Gear
The tubes my 4 piece fly rods come in :lol: Hiking 9 miles with a one piece sounds like a chore. Lol, probably. I was thinking of creating an apparatus of interconnected pvc tubing to carry them on my backpack lol. But not that I think of it, it will probably throw off my balance quite a bit and bi...

Re: Traveling with Fishing Gear
Thanks guys. I've never travelled with rods before. Usually I use the gear that others provide when I go somewhere. The major reason I'm even considered bringing my one piece and two piece rods with me to these trips is because there is a good chance that I can beat some of my personal records quite...

Re: Hiking with Fishing Gear
Depends on the spots I'm looking at. I'm looking at a max of two rods with one being a one piece.

Hiking with Fishing Gear
I was wondering what you guys use to store your rod(s) when hiking say up to 9 miles at immediate level difficulty at most?

Traveling with Fishing Gear
A couple of trips are on the calendar (one international, one to the other side of the US) next year and I am seriously thinking about bringing along some fishing gear. What do you guys use to transport your one piece rods, two piece rods, gear, etc... on an airplane?
