When purchasing a new spinning reel

Post by ukey28 »

Wasn't the St. Croix, it was the Daiwa Procyon. It fills so many uses. Small worms to Small spinnerbaits. Jerkbaits, flukes and dead sticked wacky stuff. If I wasn't the 13 rods on the deck guy that I am, Two of those and one med baitcaster and one medium heavy baitcaster would do just fine for 99% of fishin.

LI,

The 6'6" medium power fast action rod will let you throw smaller lures (like I was showing you and your brother at D-ick's sporting goods), but you'll be limited with heavier lures.

All right, I'll buy new rods. I'm tired of hearing my brothers mouth.....Well to tell the truth. I tryed his rod and I can feel the bottom better. But don't tell him that.

Sorry bad way to say it. I ment it as. If I can feel that much of a difference in the why the bottom feels. It must feel different when A fish hits it.


Nunz have you heard anything about St Croix Mojos

Its a new line St Croix came out with this year as far as I know. Harry at J&H Tackle told me anyway. they range from $90 to $120.00 not bad.

Need some help on treble hooks. I'm in the process of changing 90% of them, that's a lot. Where can I get a good amount at a good price ?
