  1. Sinclair Please clarify "they" as in asians????? or ???
  2. Just found this on you tube I hope this link works http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vh-IR5d5ywM&feature=related Jose
  3. IMO I would keep the 2500 series reel and look for 3000 series spare spools. There should be some on e-bay. That's what I did, now I can switch to the 2500 series spool for smaller stuff and the 3000 series spool for pier fishing. Hope this helps
  4. My son and I went out a day later for Bass opener Not bad considering a cold front coming in First up was this guy Second was much larger bass, very proud how he handled it. Tried to weigh it but the darn scale batteries were dead Jose
  5. Nice brookie and brownie
  6. Make sure you call ahead to reserve a boat for you. It will be busy I do not think there will be many weeds yet but in later it will be brutal. Head to the eastern end where there is a spot where it is the deepest @15-20 ft or so. Crankbaits, spinnerbaira and spoons work the best Jose
  7. Goliath grouper???
  8. Ditto Have the Flooger Supreme XT the newest one. So i bought for this year two CI4 2500 and a Stradic FJ2500 jose
  9. IMO take it back and shop eBay for the curado e5 or e7. Lots of the green models out there. I have the JDM model of the green Curados which is the scorpion xt1000 great reel
  10. Look for feedback on a couple of sites Tackle Tour will be your best bet the recently did a review on the MGX reel (MDX) I was going to try one but after some thought I dedided not to. Also tacklewarehouse in the US has reviews form customers on the reel. Hope thie helps
  11. I believe this is the one http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Pflueger_Supreme_XT_Spinning_Reel/descpage-PPCRS.html IMO really should be compared to the Stradic CI4 I have the Supreme XT and the reel wobbles quite a bit using crankbaits but on a wacky worm system it is great. I have it on my Avid rods and the wooble drives me crazy. My CI4 and my daiwa Tierras do not wobble Anyone want to buy it LOL Jose
  12. Bill Yep Sufix SPB, looking for the larger spools in the States for it. Lucky they still make it. I bought larger spools of the 832 big mistake IMO
  13. I was drawn in by the hype also I had it on several reels, now I am back to the regular Sufix perf braid. No tip wrap from this line.
  14. He is the new host of Angler and Hunter.
  15. Wow that is cool J
  16. I started by using heavy braid line 50lbs plus until I got the hang of it. I am down to 15 to 20lb braid throwing senkos. Mono is almost impossible to pull out. Never let your guard down when throwing a bait caster. I always pay attention to the lure and stop my spool soon as it hits the water Jose
  17. All my Shimano casting reels are set as 3 on and 3 off on a Y pattern. You should notice a huge diff. If I go to 2 on and 4 off I get a lot of backlashes. http://fish.shimano.com/publish/content/global_fish/en/us/index/products/Reel_Icons/Variable_Brake_System__VBS_.html
  18. There are @ six pages on tackle tour about the line. Main menu, Tackle, the Fishing line
  19. no pics, probably a bowfin
  20. What is the model of baitcaster you are using? My Shimano conquest 50 can handle 1/8 no problem also my Scopion Xt1000. Some baitcasters simply cannot handle lighter weights. Also look at the rating in the rod make sure it can handle down to 1/8 oz, ML action with a x-tra fast taper
  21. I go to the dollar store to get the smaller rubber bands. They come in different colours but I use the black ones.
  22. I think he was saying quick pull my finger lol Great pics
  23. Extra fast tip would be my choice, St. Croix Avid6 ft 9 in model with the the fast tip. I have two of the casting models and great for senkos
  24. I tried the 2500 series reel with 20lb sufix 832, I was really impressed with it. That is a good price, I like the Foam handle on the reel, I think it is better than the T shape handle.
  25. Brampton stores have no Sufix braid, at least the ones I have been to. Figures the only time I go to CTC stores for fishing stuff and they have nothing I want
