Re: Trilene Pro Grade Braid

Awe too bad. I've been doing so well with 15# and 20# Fireline braid...I was thinking this would be improvement over that.

Re: Anyone confident in flutter spoon fishing for bass?

Often times the tendency is to just reel the spoon back at a steady pace but the that's just one of the ways to fish with it. Jig the spoon. It doesn't seem to be designed to fish it this way. Then fish it subsurface4

Re: Curado 50E issue ......

If comparing the 50E to the 200E, yes the 50E's are going to feel resistance. First off, it's a lighter reel . The second thing is the shorter 80 mm handle. In the end I wouldn't throw spinnerbaits with the 50E's. Their casting ability is phenomenal. Their operation is sub par of the price it retail...

Re: Crankbait Hook Replacement

Aside from maintaining lure action and balance, knowing your lure and achieving the desired results might be intentionally altering the balance of the lure overall.
