Re: Product Insight on new Calcutta's

On average most anglers will use a reel for a specific technique. Me personally? I never change the setting once I find the best one for that reel and rod. I have a few dedicated setups, too, like C-rig rods. But I also have several combos I expect to be versatile. The Calcutta has always been thou...

Re: Product Insight on new Calcutta's

Bantam1 has mentioned the cost thing as at part of the reason in some of the threads here about it, so I'm sure you're right.

Product Insight on new Calcutta's

Thanks for the Product Insight write up on the new USDM and JDM Calcutta's. I look forward to the full review, but you are right on the money about the frustration level with the non-access issue on the USDM product. Goes right to the top of the "What were they thinking?" category. Interes...

Re: New GLX

From what I've read, it's not too far from the NRX in pricing. I wonder why G. Loomis raised the price? Now they will have two rods in the $400-$500 price range.

How about moving these forums to the top?

I love the TT reviews. But I don't always remember to go the TT front page everyday since new reviews appear at random intervals, which I understand. So it would be nice, IMO, to move these two review forums to the top of the Main list of forums to tell us when a new review has been posted. Heck, it...

Re: Fishing the Perfect Storm? Use the Right Tackle

Thanks for the reviews on the umbrella rig, guys. Interesting reading. My experiences thus far differ from yours in a few minor areas. For example, I've been setting the hook on the vast majority of my fish, and hooking like 95+% of them. I'm sure, like every rig, the buzz will die down quickly as t...
