  1. most indoor/outdoor carpet is usually berber while it will work it's no good when you get a hook stuck in it, most marine carpet is straight fibres without the loops hooks usually pull right out
  2. on my dropdrop shot set ups i went away from flouro mainline due to twisting i use 15 lb power pro with a small swivel and fluoro leader no issues with line twist but do have to watch for reeling it through the guides, for my other casting, worming, jigging outfits I tie bloodknots for my connection for leader to mainline
  3. why? mostly because i am terrible at taking pics and this wally just happened to turn out good
  4. i was using them in the spring on a no snag sinker with a small harness float tube 6 ft lead and using the gulp leeches or slimer leeches yup pretty much deadly on the kawarthas
  5. if you like it get it, it is an awesome rod and will give you years of service, I was going to grab one but ended up with a legend elite st.croix and that was just because the shimano core reel felt more balanced on the croix, but most of the high end stuff feels good
  6. While chatting with Dave at Hirk's the other day and having 40 bux burning a whole in my pocket, went to grab a couple more spro frogs seeing that i had donated several to trees, musky's and one pike after some discussion he showed me a nories brand frog of course it's was like $17.00 after some thought grabbed it (turns out i had 74 bux burning a hole in my pocket). This frog is weighted front and rear sits alittle lower in the water more level casts further than a spro but best of all I had a 80%+ hook up ratio on it raised 6 fish got 5 on the one i missed got it on a follow up senko. I don't know if it was just luck this past weekend or not but i am convinced this is the frog to use I'll be topping off the frog box with more of these Nories lures

  8. looks like we can start the console tiller debate 8 months early why we are at it
  9. as a automotive tech i could easily tell you that the sunfire needed an o2 sensor but without really looking at it, it is still a guess, unfortunatly I am at work and just can't run to the screen every 5 minutes in the hopes that an automotive q appeared then do an interenet diagnosis, have some paitence we'll get to it

  15. i have a r-type it is a great rod for the price light and sensitive i use them for bottom bouncing and top water frogging, while it's not a crucial or avid it is more than compentant rod worth the $$$
  16. the only way to stop this is to band together and stand up for our rights
