Im trying to decide on a spinning reel. Currently I am looking at the Shimano Rarenium ci4+, complex ci4+, and exsence ci4+. I know that I want the reel to be 2500 size but other than that I can't decide what to get. I'll be using it for small trigs, shakey heads, drop shot and 4" senkos. Can somebo...

I am back to looking for someone who can tie some jigs for me. I am looking for somebody to tie some hair jigs for me. Any suggestions?

He was giving the specs for the 5:3:1 ^^^^^

Does anybody know of a company or person that can make me a hand tied version of a Strike King Bity Flip jig? I really like the size of the jig in tougher conditions but what I don't like about them is the quality issues. Any help is appreciated. Mike This one looks similar with a small profile htt...

Thanks for all your input guys. I just ordered the 7'1 MH from TW. It'll be here on Monday

Is this rod going to be more sensitive compared to an Envy?

I'm leaning more towards the MH since 3/8 and 1/2 oz. are what I primarily throw.

I'm looking at either the 7'1 MH or the 7' H for throwing jigs mainly 3/8 and 1/2 oz. sometimes 1/4 and 3/4 oz.

Why do you prefer the envy over the klx?

Is the Zillion built on the same platform as the Tatula?
