Re: Best Lipless Crankbait

Yozuri Hardcore Drum in Painted Shad has been my favorite and most effective lipless crankbait for years. Unfortunately and I don't know why, Yo-Zuri discontinued them and Now I see one occasionally on Ebay but never the painted shad. https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61N%2BAQaHkhL._...

Re: Could this be the new St croix rod? > Legend X casting

Love that color "relentless Olive" and a 15 year transferable warranty is a very nice feature.

Re: Spinning Reel Lunging Forward

I really wanted to offer my help, but I am hung up on understanding what you mean by lunge. Can you put it another way?

Re: Megabass Gatta-X versus Jackall Pompadour

Thanks for the replies, definitely in the market for a Jackall Pompadour.

Recommended color? I like the look of the bone white , and maybe the black bone?

Re: 2017 Daiwa Steez Hi-Speed spinning reel

My guess is to save almost 1.5 ounces off the weight of the reel and advertise it as the lightest Daiwa spinning reel to date, they went without the Magseal and waterproof packing. This is based on the remarks found on the PLAT.co.jp website though and by no means is anything other than a guess. "Th...

Re: Megabass Gatta-X versus Jackall Pompadour

And one of these... Thanks. http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Megabass_Grand_Siglett/descpage-MBGRS.html I have a Siglett, but I don't have a Grand Siglett. I may have to try that one too. So between the pompadour jr and a siglett, that's less money than I spent on the single Gatta-x turbulence. And f...

Re: Megabass Gatta-X versus Jackall Pompadour

I can't say for sure because they're obviously going for a similar thing, but the Pompadour draws the craziest strikes of any topwater I've ever thrown. Part of it is that the wings are loose and squeak. You've got the Megabass, is it sort of loose and squeaky in addition to the other commotion it ...

Megabass Gatta-X versus Jackall Pompadour

I was wondering if anyone had experience with both of these lures and what is your comparative opinion? I have the Megabass Gatta-C turbulence in Black and have been eyeing the Pompadour Jr with some interest. Seems like it fills the same niche but is a little different design. Does it fish better? ...
